Quite simply one of the best mini-series I've ever seen. You're on the edge of your seat from start to finish.

After the hijackers take over, it's up to a business negotiator (Idris Elba) to try to avert disaster, while the folks on the ground prepare for the worst. The show stars slowly, but once the plane takes off, so does the tension. Before long there are genuinely gripping encounters that had me screaming at the screen. Elba plays cool with no problem, but it's the series directors who keep the stress coming. The drama is also intensified because of the confined space and the involving characters. Even though some of the plot holes were obvious, this series remains a riveting ride.… Expand

I really enjoyed this. Small playground, but big story. Lots of twists and turns, but no bs. I will say that the reasons behind the hijacking were a little thin, but still believable. And I didn't really care about the sub-plot of Idris AlbaI really enjoyed this. Small playground, but big story. Lots of twists and turns, but no bs. I will say that the reasons behind the hijacking were a little thin, but still believable. And I didn't really care about the sub-plot of Idris Alba and his ex and son. Still, it was something I looked forward to watching every week.… Expand

Well written and exciting series with a WTF moment. Idris Elba's character is very interesting, the series also has potential for further seasons with a different setting.

This is one of the most riveting thrillers I've seen...period! It's brilliantly acted. Very realistic in tone and setting. The acting is absolutely top notch. Idris Elba is so watchable.

The acting is absolutely top notch. Idris Elba is so watchable. Smart, empathetic and in control - despite nerve-wracking conditions. I'm a movie and book buff so I don't offer this review lightly. "Hijack" is one of the very best tension-packed thrillers you'll find now or in recent memory. (I've just completed the final episode so this is a full series perspective.) So....put this one on your binge list....but, be prepared to stay up all night - even once you're done watching all episodes.… Expand
