This one-off movie crystallized Ford's leading man image better than 'Indiana Jones' or 'Star Wars.'
Harrison Ford is his own franchise. Yes, he may have risen to the kind of enviable worldwide prominence few achieve thanks to leading roles in two landmark pieces of cinema — both of which, ironically, offered a variation on the lovable rogue archetype. But through a series of astute career moves, Ford established an unspoken promise that no matter how often his characters skirted past the edges of moral decency, they always did the right thing before the credits rolled .
After masterfully trolling Washington, D.C., Marshall hops onto Air Force One. All he wants to do is see his family, watch the football game he missed, and take a nap. Instead, a group of neo-Soviet terrorists commandeers the plane. Led by Egor Korshunov , the group wants Marshall to free an imprisoned Russian general. Marshall strategically evades them for most of the movie, but once he's caught, his vows are put to the test: release the general, or Marshall's wife and daughter die.
But most importantly for gung-ho viewers of a certain disposition, Marshall unrepentantly kicks ass. This is the kind of guy who triggers literal in-movie applause after he announces his name, and Ford dons his sweaty, bleeding, put-upon hero look as easily as a pair of socks. He bites out crabby one-liners, dispenses platonic cheek kisses, and fires off bullets.
