I know that direct-to-video movies can bring you bad acting, but the trope "Bad Bad Acting" refers when someone does bad acting in-universe. And just saying "Pretty much everything [X] does." or "[X] pulls one of these at the end." are Zero Context Examples. Commenting them out.

!!Provides Examples Of:

* ActingForTwo: John Mann plays Craven and the villain impersonating Craven.
* ApocalypseCult: The hijackers are all members of a Satanic cult and are trying to crash the plane into a church in Kansas to bring about the apocalypse.
* BadBadActing: The kind that only direct-to-video movies can bring you.
* HollywoodHacking: Pretty much everything Nick does.
* HotLibrarian: FBI agent Kate Hayden pulls one of these at the end.
* IKnowMortalKombat: The pilots are dead, and no one aboard knows how to fly (or land). Craven's VoiceWithAnInternetConnection is a hacker named Nick, who explains that he's been playing flight simulators all his childhood and asks the FBI agent holding him to allow him to help Craven land the plane. He turns on a flight simulator and sets it to the same conditions as Craven's plane, while the FBI agent hacks into the nearby airport control tower, so Nick has access to radar. He manages to successfully guide the rock star to land the plane.
* JustPlaneWrong: The "communications bay" Craven is locked in has a wood floor, a cheap metal shelf, unsecured equipment that would have fallen during take-off, and is much too large. The equipment rack is not even close to looking correct.
** When Craven is forced to fly the plane, Nick (on the radio) tells him to "type 230" into the FMC and then the plane will land itself. Um, no. Even if that was the correct way to enter the heading for the autopilot, all that would do is tell the plane to keep steady at heading 230. Re-configuring the flight plan in the FMC for an ILS auto-land is much more complex.
** During the manual landing, no mention is ever made of approach angle or speed. Nick does have Craven set the flaps, though.
** At no point do they ever line the plane up with the airport. Craven just pulls it out of two dives and is then magically lined up perfectly for the runway.
* LargeHam: Simon Flanders when he's impersonating Craven.
* TheMole: [[spoiler: The co-pilot]] and [[spoiler: Erica Black]]
* NotSoDifferent: When Agent Hayden busts Nick for his hacking, she admits she had to hack into a government system to track him down. He says they are not so different.
* VoiceWithAnInternetConnection: Nick is this to Craven.
* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: Craven knocked out Simon Flanders and put him in the lavatory with only a galley cart blocking the door. At the end of the movie, he's too wrapped up with his fans and doesn't tell any authorities about the hijacker still being alive and on the plane.
