One hint, 6 chances, and a new movie to guess every day
An act of terrorism leads to one of the most daring rescue missions ever attempted. When a commercial flight is hijacked in 1976 and diverted to an abandoned terminal at Entebbe Airport in Uganda, the terrified passengers become bargaining chips in a deadly political standoff.
"Based on a true story, '7 Days in Entebbe' shows the human side and mental trauma of the hijackers - a rare feat in films that speak of terrorism. Directed by the Brazilian José Padilha ('Elite Squad'), we get to know another angle of the hijacked plane in 1976, forcing the crew to land in Entebbe, Uganda. This is a tragic story and a good adaptation by Padilha."
