Skyscraper (Remake)

Skyscraper is an action thriller remake of the 1996 film of the same name which starred Anna Nicole Smith.

Plot
Stacy Bouvier is a pilot for the HeliScort company, who provide air taxis for paying clients, and has a fiancé is the LAPD. Meanwhile, a South African white supremacist named Abrahem Baptiste plots to hijack a satellite and use it to commit a massive electronic bank robbery undetected. To do so, he must take over the Glazer building in LA. He decides to use HeliScort services to chaperone him and his men to the tower.

One this particular day, Stacy is chosen for the task. After flying Baptiste and his thugs to the Glazer building, she lets down on the roof. Inside the building, Baptiste meets with a man named Gordon who has a suitcase containing a device key to the taking of the satellite. Unbeknownst to Gordon, the psychopathic Baptiste plans to kill him once he has delivered the goods. Gordon is shot and wounded but manages to escape to the roof and gives Stacy the case, making her promise not to let Baptiste get his hands on it before dying. Stacy hides as Baptiste takes control of the tower.

Stacy is then chased by a muscular goon and soon finds herself the target of Baptiste's entire army. After sending one of the men down the stairs to his death, Stacy retrieves a gun and sets out to bring Baptiste down and survive the siege. She manages to set off the fire alarm, alerting the LA fire department, who soon learn of the hostage crisis. Soon, Stacy's fiancé Jack arrives on the scene and manages to get in contact with Stacy. Throughout the film, flashbacks reveal that Jack trained Stacy with firearms and hand-to-hand combat.

Despite Jack's protests, Stacy surrenders herself to Baptiste and his remaining men after she witnesses them killing innocent hostages. She is left alone with only one guard, who then tries to rape her, but she manages to stab him and escape.

With the briefcase now in his possession, Baptiste orders that the upper floors be wired and blown up once they depart, as he is a sadist. He returns to the room where Stacy was being held, planning on using her to chaperone them from the tower, only to find her gone.

Meanwhile, a SWAT team enters the building, along with Jack, who goes with them. A shootout finishes most of the remaining terrorists without any civilian deaths. However, Baptiste remains at large.

Stacy is confronted by Baptiste and they engage in a hand-to-hand fight. She manages to stab him in the leg and then threatens to drop the suitcase out of a window. Just as Jack enters the room, Baptiste charges into Stacy and knocks both of them out of the window. Baptiste grabs onto the briefcase, which is still being held onto by Stacy. Jack runs to her and begins to pull her up, but Baptiste pulls the knife out of his leg and is about to kill Stacy when the catch on the case, which was damaged, breaks and opens, sending Baptiste to his death. Jack then pulls Stacy back inside the building to safety and they share a passionate kiss as they are finally reunited after a long ordeal.
