Storyline
U.S. Marshal Sam Gerard is accompanying a plane load of convicts from Chicago to New York. The plane crashes spectacularly, and Mark Sheridan escapes. But when Diplomatic Security Agent John Royce is assigned to help Gerard recapture Sheridan, it becomes clear that Sheridan is more than just another murderer.

The New York Times
A movie that knows how to pace its audience. Watching it is like going for a long and satisfying jog.

I like that Sheridan's girlfriend works at Starbucks. Snipes plays the part with the kind of high energy that large doses of caffeine would explain.

Chicago Sun-Times
The result is unconvincing and disorganized. Yes, there are some spectacular stunts and slick special effects sequences. Yes, Jones is right on the money, and Snipes makes a sympathetic fugitive. But it's the story that has to pull this train, and its derailment is about as definitive as the train crash in the earlier film.

The Globe and Mail (Toronto)
Who really wants to go to an escape movie and have to work this hard to figure it out?

The action sequences were often nail-biters, the lead characters were well-developed, and the dialogue was intelligent.
