QWhat is 'Air Force One' about?
AWhile returning U.S. President James Marshall (Harrison Ford), his wife Grace (Wendy Crewson), and daughter Alice (Liesel Matthews) from a diplomatic dinner in Moscow, Air Force One is hijacked by a group of 'Russian ultramodernist radicals' led by Ivan Korshunov (Gary Oldman).
