History YMMV / Hijack

* CompleteMonster: [[TheMobBossIsScarier Edgar Janssen]] is the ruthless co-leader of the Cheapside Firm, [[TheSyndicate a crime syndicate]] based in London. To ensure he has subordinates that will do what he says, Janssen blackmails various people throughout his local community by [[IWillPunishYourFriendForYourFailure threatening to kill their loved ones]], including [[WouldHurtAChild children]], in order to force them to do certain jobs for him, which include dispatching hitmen to kill various people. As such, when the syndicate is busted and Edgar, alongside his partner John-Bailey Brown, his partner-in-crime, are arrested, Janssen coerces [[BreakingOutTheBoss several people to hijack flight KA-29 to blackmail the U.K. government into releasing them]]. Once they are released, the duo goes through a pre-planned route, and switches cars with decoys, leading the police to arrest the decoys instead of the real criminals. Edgar then has his double agent on the flight, Amanda, take control of the cockpit by killing Captain Robin Allen. It is then revealed that Edgar, John, and their associate, Devlin, plan to stage a bear raid on Kingdom Airlines' stock so they can reap financial rewards from it, presumably to pay off their debts. However, Edgar decides to let flight KA-29 crash into Central London, which would kill hundreds, just so he can get all the money he wants from the scheme.

* JerkassWoobie: Stuart. He, alongside his colleagues, hijacks a plane and instills fear in everyone with his immense wrath, especially Sam Nelson. He outright kills an innocent, even though his boss did not order it, and threatens to kill everyone else if they don't get in their seats. He even takes joy in frightening Sam. However, he has a [[TragicVillain tragic backstory]], as his father, Peter, was assassinated by his boss, [[BigBad Edgar Janssen]], [[SmallRoleBigImpact which effects the Atterton family]]. It is heavily implied that Stuart and the rest of the hijackers were [[ForcedIntoEvil forced to hijack the flight at the threat of their family being killed by Edgar]]. Even though Stuart goes through with the plan, [[EvenEvilHasLovedOnes as he is shown to love his family no matter what]], [[AllForNothing he gets nothing out of it]]. His brother, Lewis, dies halfway through the flight, which devastates Stuart, [[SanitySlippage resulting in him becoming a lot more unhinged throughout the rest of the flight]], [[VillainousBreakdown maniacally hunting and attempting to kill Sam at the end, even though he knows he's going to be arrested for the hijacking.]] And unbeknownst to him, Stuart's mother, Elaine, committed suicide over her husband's death by walking into oncoming traffic.
