This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I got sucked into this due the trailer. The whole series is filmed well and has a good cast. But the writing really lets this show down.
There are just so many stupid decisions by everyone on the plane that its too much to handle. Like when just a few minutes after the hijackers take over the main character hands them back their handgun after dropping it? No way, I can't swallow that. Nor can I believe that the pilot would actually open the cockpit door.
And then so many other dumb things, like when the civilian flight controller is the one telling the military what to do. There is no way that is a correct chain of command. I did finish the series, but I wouldn't ever watch it again and I won't recommend it to anyone unless they just can't get enough Edris Elba.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. When a writer tries to make me believe that an air controller can play with a video game while working, I start to worry about the script.
When a writer tries to convince me that you can negotiate with hijackers because you're Idris Elba and you're an incredible "business negotiator", I start to laugh hard. When a writer finds it credible that a plane pilot can brutally assault it's female copilot to let hijackers in their cockpit because if they don't someone will die, I find it absurd and I continue to laugh hard.
When a writer decides that a jailed criminal mastermind can organize the hijacking of a commercial plane from his cell with an army of accomplices, and then get out of jail and become a billionaire,I take the remote and I switch to another show.
This scenario is an abuse of viewers intellect.… Expand
