A tight, taut thriller about an attempted airline hijacking that could teach some big Hollywood types how to keep it lean and mean.

7500 is a harrowing thriller. The 9/11 style plot and hijacking scenes are disturbing. I struggled to keep my emotions in check.

Even with its limitations, 7500 soars as a tense, workmanlike thriller, elevated by its delicate balance between thrills and realistic moments.
Battle Royale With Cheese

A Hitchcockian potboiler that unfortunately runs out of gas mid flight and feels far too reticent to dip into its post 9/11 politics.
