That’s … pretty much the entire film, honestly. Roman wants an apology from the airline and eventually Jake – hence the enlistment of the journalist I mentioned earlier – while Jake falls into a deep depression and eventually has his entire life upended.
One, Roman, who lost his family, and the other, Jake, who helped cause the deaths of dozens of people. The rest of the film follows both men and how they deal with the grief.

We then switch perspectives, focusing on air traffic controller Jake ( Scoot McNairy), who after a series events (some of which were out of his control) winds up contributing to the plane crash – there was a mid-air collision between two planes. When he arrives at the airport, he is taken aside and told that there was an accident, the airplane crashed, and that there’s a really good chance that nobody survived. His wife and pregnant daughter are on board.
Schwarzenegger’s character, Roman, is eagerly awaiting a flight to arrive. So, Schwarzenegger, who is no longer a significant box office draw or much of a credible action star, was called in to try to show off his acting chops, whatever those may be, in a direct-to-VOD dreary drama. If you’ve seen his last decade of work, Neeson characters do things on their own they don’t need help. The role screams for Liam Neeson – right down to Maggie Grace having a do-nothing supporting role – except for the fact that the protagonist needs assistance from a journalist to track down his target.

Have you ever watched a movie and thought that a different actor was probably pitched the screenplay, rejected it for one reason or another, and therefore we got the one who wound up accepting it instead? That’s the feeling I came away from with Aftermath, which stars Arnold Schwarzenegger.
