Drop Zone
Taking crime to new heights.
Directed by John Badham
Produced by Paramount Pictures, Nicita/Lloyd Productions
A high-octane revenge thriller that pairs skydiving spectacle with a prison-break heist plot, driven by action and personal vendetta rather than depth.
A daring prison break from an airliner at 30,000 feet leaves U.S. Marshal Pete Nessip mourning a brother and gunning for revenge. After being ordered to turn in his badge, he seeks out Jessie Crossman, a noted skydiver, and offers to sponsor her crew for the annual Independence Day parachuting show in Washington, D.C., if she trains him. Meanwhile, the mastermind behind the mid-air jailbreak is planning a daring computer theft on Independence Day.
