Bat 21 is a story about Lieutenant Colonel Iceal Hambleton (Gene Hackman) who is a aeronautics weapons expert. During a routine observation flight during the Vietnam conflict, his spy plane is shot down behind enemy lines. Now it’s a race against time for the Americans to find him before the enemy cause Hambleton’s weapons knowledge is beyond reproach and could change the conflict as it is now. This proves difficult for the officer, Captain. Bartholomew Clark (Danny Glover) to locate him cause the enemy is listening in on their communications. For some reason, Hamleton is feeding the Vietcong information for he knows they can hear his every word.
