A cop with “extremely high professional ethics?”

Also, Wings of Dread is the better title if they’re going to put melee weapons on the promo materials.

I hope this is an homage to over the top action movies.

    better title

    I imagine they're trying to sound like "Snakes on a Plane."

    I remember seeing an earlier preview of this and thinking they kinda cheated by going down to the (mostly empty) cargo hold. Having fights in constrained areas looks like it could inspire creative fight choreography.
