Line 10:
What makes the film is the chemistry between Denzel's grizzled veteran Frank and Chris Pine's young rookie Will, as well as Tony Scott's eye for action and his adherence to the use of practical effects and stunts as opposed to [[Conspicuous CG|CGI]] for the action sequences. Critics and viewers generally liked it, with a 6.9 on [[IMDb]], $81 million in box office, and an 86% on [[Rotten Tomatoes]].
{{tropelist}}
* [[Actor Allusion]]: [[Denzel Washington]]'s character is named Frank Barnes; in ''[[American Gangster]]'', a prior film of his (which just so happens to have been made by Tony Scott's brother [[Ridley Scott]]), there is a character named Nicky Barnes, and Denzel played Frank Lucas.
* [[Agony of the Feet]]: Pine's character gets his right foot crushed while coupling up engine 1206 to the runaway 777's end.
