Spoiler alert The movie opens with an unseen maniac chasing after a pretty woman in a nice house. The FBI gets involved in the investigation because clues point to a serial killer. Agent Kurt Novack gets a call on his cell phone from a mystery person with an evil voice. Then he goes home to his wife and son. The killer strikes again. Same circumstances: pretty girl who has been made to look good and covered up, with a photo of the dead body that has some body part missing. Then things get strange: a similar murder occurs in Australia. For some odd reason, Novack brings his family along. Big mistake. But the wife and son have fun in view of the Opera House while Novack helps with the interrogation of a suspect. Novack believes the Australians have the wrong man, but the Australians are quite confident. When the time comes to return home, the Novacks have their reservations switched to another plane, but at least they are given first class seats. One passenger is late, so the plane must wait. Novack's wife receives a mysterious gift which Novack realizes points to the killer. And then Novack gets a phone call from the mystery man. Other events have taken place Novack's wife and son know about, but Novack doesn't. During the second half, things get quite tense. There are several suspects, and Novack goes overboard with every one of them (not the behavior I would expect from an FBI agent, though it is entertaining). On the ground in the United States, other agents investigate leads. The suspense level grows as the movie progresses, and sometimes things get downright frightening. The excitement level builds to a climax toward the end. It wasn't as scary as I would have been led to believe, but certainly some people would be discouraged from getting on a plane after that. I'm not a big fan of really scary movies, so this film was just about exciting enough for me. The truly terrifying scenes on the plane could probably have been drawn out longer and made this even more of a thriller, but the mystery and the investigation itself made the movie quite interesting anyway. I'm sure this type of film has been done better, but I enjoyed it. Otherworldly music added to the terrifying moments, and one blonde woman who was held prisoner really came across as frightened. I just wish I knew the character's name. The evil voice was done quite well, too. I could tell you whose it was, but I won't. This movie was delayed after the events of September 11, 2001. I can see why. Getting on a plane back then was already a frightening prospect.
Pretty bad
If you decide to watch the movie, count how many times Terry Farrell's character makes a dumb decision. Get this: AFter she finds out that a serial killer is on her plane hunting her and her family, she keeps LEAVING HER DEFENSELESS SON ALL ALONE at every opportunity! Also, I've never seen a more nosy wife. Also, if you were an FBI agent hunting a serial killer, would you really bring your wife and son to Austarlia with you to interview the serial killer? Dumb, dumb, dumb.
Enjoyable at times but predictable!
I watched this movie for a couple of reasons. 1. David James Elliot 2. The review was good 3. Nothing else worth watching. After watching it, I thought it was quite enjoyable, particulary towards the end. A couple of faults with the movie though, on being with Terry the wife being too annoying and to many 'As if" situations such as as if you would leave your son alone while there's a serial killer after you and your family. It was also pretty predictbale towards the end to guess the killer, even though you may have suspected others that are brought into the story. Not bad for an afternoon's viewing though.
Psycho killer or psycho cop?
This film is so stupid, so predictable and just so over the top it is quite entertaining to laugh at. The FBI guy is a complete and utter idiot; he should be keeping matters cool and calm on the aeroplane but instead he runs around like a madman throwing innocent passengers aside. He is a complete nut case; he shouts at staff and is aggressive to everyone he comes in contact with. Constantly seems to stare at people so much the twist at the end should have been that he was the killer himself. His wife is annoying for reasons posted by previous viewers and the main villain is so obvious I wonder how films like this get the greenlight. Bad, really bad.
Cheap but entertaining!
Watch "Code 11-14" only if it airs on cable. The first half of the movie is very entertaining and develops some interesting situations but then it becomes predictable and dull. After some dumb situations (like leaving Johnny alone in his seat while a serial killer is chasing his parents...) I had to repeat to myself "don't get angry, it's only a movie, it has to have exaggerated situations. But come on, sometimes it looks like the script was improvised. Anyways, the movie offers some good scenes and has likable characters. Don't expect too much from this. Nowhere near to be a mess but neither a good movie. Only for lovers of detective movies.
