i know i wasted 90 mins of my life.

What a freaking movie. So many twists and turns. Absolutely intense from start to finish.

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

7 women have been murdered by a serial killer and when it appears that the killer is in Australia, the FBI agent goes with his family down under to see what is going on.It is on their way back from Australia that the mayhem really begins.It seems that the killer is on board. He has placed one passenger in a secluded area below the plane and has killed another woman in the bathroom.Our detective is jumping up and down. Now, they believe their child who saw something in their hotel room and screamed out.Now, our picture seems to center on who the killer is on board. We probably need Hercule Poirot or Jessica Fletcher to be called in to salvage this.Naturally, in this film, the plane is put out of control and the passengers scream and scream. Miraculously, all ends well. Anyone could have predicted this.

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.

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.

I decided to see this after reading a review stating that "it was a great movie". IT WAS NOT! Nothing about it was worth seeing. I lost 85 minutes of my life. Bad acting, bad story, bad script, bad everything. Whooa a serial killer on an aeroplane; what an original and new twist - NOT!
