    Hot on the heels of “Con Air” (1997) this time it’s Tommy Lee Jones who finds himself in charge of flying a load of dangerous villains. His “Sam” is charged with transporting “Sheridan” (Wesley Snipes), but when a bit of onboard fisticuffs results in a forced landing, his charge behaves in an altogether different fashion to that expected before skedaddling. Hot on his heels, our intrepid deputy marshal soon begins to suspect what we have already clocked - that something about this whole thing smells and that perhaps the fleeing felon isn’t exactly the criminal everyone assumed he was. With their cat and mouse game gathering pace amidst some pretty dense woodland, “Sam” realises strings are being pulled and trust soon becomes at a premium, especially with his new partner “Royce” (Robert Downey Jr.). The scenario helps it out a bit and both Jones and Snipes are proficient, but the story is just too join-the-dots and it’s relatively easy for us watching to deduce from quite early on what’s going on, and what’s bound to happen as the denouement edges closer. If you’ve seen “The Fugitive” from five years earlier, you might spot one or two similarities that really just render this little better than a vehicle for a star who is going through the motions. Passes the time, but that’s about it.
