Sooooooo so bad. Do not waste your time. Interesting plot I thought, but absolutely nothing in the movie was anything close to real life.
I thought it was a good/decent watch. The pro tsa propaganda was a bit much but still worth watching.
Honestly, if Jason Bateman wasn't in it i probably would have passed on watching it.

Rambo too, fuckface. Leave Rambo off the list next year and see what happens.
It wasn't horrible but it really stretches the limits of plausibility.
I know a lot of people can claim being early adopters of bad ass shit, but for me it's Die Hard as a Christmas movie.
When Die Hard was released in theaters it was the first R rated movie my parents ever took me to. Fuxking loved it. The following Christmas my Dad got us a VHS player, which was opened on Christmas eve at my Grandparents house as was our custom...along with a copy of Die Hard.
We drove back home, promptly plugged that badboy up, and watched Die Hard while drinking hot chocolate. We all had so much fun watching together that the next Christmas we did it again.
And again.
And it became our official family Christmas eve tradition, one which has remained unbroken in all that time, and which our entire extended family has bought in on.
I have homemade ornaments of John M. In the AC ducts lighting the zippy. My tree topper is a cartoonist John McClane plush toy. When Hans falls in slow motion anyone still awake yells "Merry Christmas!" loud AF.
True story. I was the prime mover in the Die Hard Christmas tradition.
"It's just not Christmas until Hans Gruber falls off Nakatomi tower."

Carry On is more of a thriller.
Watching it now. I want to like it, but dang if too many people in this movie aren't colossal idiots.
Don't get me wrong - I'm all for over-the-top, unrealistic action / thrillers. But when you continually find yourself saying, "uhhh...why doesn't he / she just do this?" (when "this" is something stupidly simple), it makes the movie lose something.

Such as?
Tell her it's payback for throwing out your alarm clock.
