Editorial Review:
Amazon.com
You know that old dramatic principle of suspension of disbelief? You'll have to rely on it for this box-office smash, but you won't be disappointed. Harrison Ford plays a U.S. president who single-handedly employs his rigid antiterrorism policy when a band of Russian thugs hatch a mid-flight takeover of Air Force One. Gary Oldman, who chews the scenery as the lead terrorist, will shoot a hostage at the slightest provocation. Glenn Close plays the sternly pragmatic vice president who negotiates with Oldman from her Washington seat of power. If you can believe that the aircraft's pressurized cabin can sustain hundreds of rounds of machine-gun fire, you'll buy anything in this entertaining potboiler, especially thanks to Ford's stalwart heroics and some nifty special effects. Director Wolfgang Petersen (Das Boot) keeps the action moving so fast you won't be sweating the details. Don't forget your parachute! --Jeff Shannon

Air Force One.......2007-06-08
Harrison Ford should have been a President... He is great in this movie and could save the world....
Great Action flick wrapped in honor.......2007-05-31
There are some unrealistic elements to this movie, but only when you stop and think about it. It's an action movie and there will always be some stretches of reality. Harrison Ford delivers as does his supporting cast. It will pull you into the story without any real trouble, you will find yourself routing for the President and telling the evil guys "take that". In the end, you will feel good about it and you may even be inspired by it. Enjoy!
Awesome and TIMELY! (RELEVANT).......2007-05-04
People don't often celebrate this movie for its timeliness and relevance but as world events unfold, it is steadily becoming more and more relevant in my humble opinion. This particular version doesn't necessarily add anything to the enjoyment of the movie. But to be honest it's hard to add to sheer perfection. This movie is well-plotted and very believable, even in the moments when you find yourself going "NO WAY!"
Some have written it off as saying it depicts the "cowboy mentality" as if that's a bad thing. Some say that it's a training manual for terrorists that might wish to harm our own leadership.
Personally I think it's merely a good action movie with a good moral to the story. Good will only triumph over Evil when Good learns to take its head out of its scared hind end and actually be willing to stand up for what's right.
Until we are willing to have a back bone, the list of countries that are going to run right over is is ever growing. This movie cautions us not to let that happen. It's up to us to either listen or ignore this stark warning.
My Husband loves this movie!.......2007-04-10
This is a good movie and will keep you watching all the way through. Harrison Ford is excellent in this and the supporting cast is good as well. The plot is revelent with all the current world situations. The ending makes you want to cheer!
Once upon a time...........2007-03-27
... USA was the only country in the world where this kind of story (although farfetched) could be happening. Especially when you remember the JFK's fighting history (maybe it's one of the reasons why he was assassinated). But now, when you see the Bush family history, the only war record of the grandfather (at the same time JFK was patrolling in the Pacific) shows his best achievement was building the family's fortune by catering for the Third Reich's financial needs. And I can imagine the present Bush pounding Mahmoud Ahmadinejad on the head with a bible (to show him it's better than the coran), and telling him "Get out of my world". As well, USA lost all credibility when he got RE-elected : One mistake might be understandable, but, as the Romans said "Errare humanum est, sed perseverare diabolicum" (to err is human, but to persist is diabolical).

The world's most exclusive airplane, a combination of a luxury hotel and a super-secret military command post, is profiled in this documentary produced by National Geographic. The history of presidential flight, from its beginnings with President Roosevelt making a secret wartime flight in 1943, is covered, and particular attention is appropriately given to the historic flight that returned President Kennedy's body to Washington after his assassination. Filmed in the closing months of the Clinton administration, the film features the preparation for a presidential trip, which includes close involvement of the military and antiterrorist specialists of the U.S. Secret Service. The makers of this highly informative film were given unprecedented access to Air Force One, and the footage of the presidential 747 is spectacular. --Robert J. McNamara
Description

Features exclusive interviews with Presidents George W. Bush, William Jefferson Clinton, George H. W. Bush, and Jimmy Carter.
Customer Reviews:
Not so good!.......2006-02-28
I tought that this movie was going to tell you the real secrets of Air Force One, but it only talks about the story of the airplane since Nixon, and then it just tells you that it is cassified everything about it, so not so many details. I didn't like it.
This is must see for everyone .......2005-03-26
This is a great movie about the U.S president's official plane Air Force One or rightly called White House on wings. Covers the history of Air Force One as to how the need for an air travel was considered a must after the second world war as the head of states of the world usually avoided Air travel before world war 2. Shows the planes in complete details alongwith the interviews of some of the former Presidents of U.S and some of the Crew members of this amazing plane. Also covers some of the sad moments of history of mankind like the transport of Dead Body of the former president of U.S John Cannedy who was shot dead in 1963 and was carried back by Air force one and the next president took oath in the plane itself. Quite a sentimental and at the same time dutiful moment captured on film.
The movie tells about the routine of the flights and the jobs of the crew members in details and what weapons and accessories are carried alongwith the plane. All in all it's a must see for everyone who lives in this world and is in touch with the current events of the globe. Must make you feel envy about the fate of U.S presidents for possesing such an out of the world Air Plane.
Best inside look at Air Force One.......2002-10-27
This video is up to date and shows you Air Force One like never before. I am a TV news photographer and have covered Air Force One many times. This was a great way to see what goes on inside and behind the scenes. Great job National Geographic!!

This is a fantastic video on Air Force One. They have done a great job getting access. A little too much was shown I think
that could hurt the security of the President

Customer Reviews:
Pentagon.......2006-07-28
The Pentagon video is useless because anyone with a photo ID and some free time can get a tour of the Pentagon.
Already Dated.......2003-05-26
These DVD's are already dated! "Inside Air Force One" and "Inside the White House" are both back in the Clinton era, and there is much too much fawning about Bill and Hillary. "Inside the Pentagon" is more recent, however it is well before the Second Gulf War, and the revolutions that that war has seen in the area of freeing a country without destroying its civilian population or destroying its intrastructure. While these DVD's are appropriate for children, they are too dated for most adults.

A wealth of unique insider perspectives.......2002-03-13
Air Force One isn't one particular aircraft. It is the designation given to what ever particular aircraft the President of the United States happens to be flying in at the time. Charlton Heston lends his considerable narrative talents in Air Force One: The Planes & The Presidents - Flight II, a new, 90 minute, Hi Fi Stereo, DVD release from MPI Home Video. Viewers are treated to a unique, in-depth survey of the history and evolution of presidential flight from the Franklin Roosevelt administration through the presidency of George Bush. Here is a wealth of unique insider perspectives of events and activities ranging from the historically important to the amusingly trivial. Our understanding is further enhanced with enlightening and informative interviews with former presidents, pilots, crew, and administration officials. Also featured is an examination of the varying types of planes that have had the honor of being dubbed "Air Force One" throughout the years. Air Force One: The Planes & The Presidents - Flight II is a superb addition to any school or community library video/DVD American History or Political Science/Presidential Studies collection.
Just GRRRRRREAT!.......2000-10-05
I really could not find any flaw in the movie, the only thing is that they briefly show the presidential quarters! Otherwise, this is a wonderful collection of the shots about the Flying White House! Get the movie! It is the worth of price and you will enjoy watching it! The movie is particularly interesting for foreigners! Americans may and can see the plane individually, they have this chance!
The best documentary about Air Force One........2000-07-22
I had first seen this on the History Channel and when I found out it was coming on video, I got it immediately. It was a very impressing film. I was fascinated to learn about the history of Air Force One and how presidential travel by air was formed. I was also surprised that they had interviews with former presidents and Air Force One crewmembers which I enjoyed. I think that this a really great film and I think it's worth watching.

Absolutly Incredible!.......2007-06-16
I swear, if Harison Ford was elected for our nations president, hell yes i would elect him. The are with no doubt no noticableness in fakeness in the special effects. Everything looks real and none of it looks fake. This is one of my Top 5 favorite movies.

Some of the roadblocks Kissinger and Eagleburger discuss are strengthening the U. S. relationship with Asia and facilitating peace in the Middle East. Plus, Harrison Ford tells Charlie about his new film, Air Force One that imagines a hostage situation on the president's airplane.
