Falcon down
Threat advisory: Low - Low risk of entertaining activities
Movie propaganda
The biggest USA military project in history, the XB-1000 mach VI bomber known as the Falcon project is cancelled following a major disaster during its first test flight.
Undaunted, a group of x-military strategists continue to develop the stealth bomber in secret, knowing that once complete, a sale to the Chinese for billions of dollars is assured.
A team of experts is assembled to hijack the plane, including the one man capable of flying the new stealth technology, Hank Thomas (dale Midkiff), a staunchly American fighter pilot who unwittingly becomes involved in the operation.
Once on board, the hijack begins and the team of Russian-trained commandos demand that Hank land on the Arctic ice cap where the real battle for survival begins. The ice is too thin to support the extraordinary weight of the Falcon. Thousands of metres below the surface, Hank must not only battle the ruthless commandos but also escape the icy grave which threatens the very fabric of national security.

Theatrical report
"More speed Mister Sulu."
Captain Kirk stands and moves closer to the boom mic, once again showing his face in Hollywood. You gotta hand it to the guy, of all the Star trek crew, his is the face that shows up most in Hollywood, be it TV or movies, good or bad.
I saw a covert mission that left me wondering if the hero was a baddie from the beginning and an ending that left him utterly confused. Feel free to give this one a miss.
