Editorial Review: Product Description: A ship is taken over by a former high level military hitman in order to blackmail the united states government and protect himself from being taken out. Little does he know that the ships cook is a former green beret who will stop at nothing. Studio: Warner Home Video Release Date: 11/14/2006 Starring: Steven Seagal Gary Busey Run time: 103 minutes Rating: R Director: William Webb Amazon.com: Steven Seagal can consider himself lucky if he ever makes a better movie than this one, which was appropriately dubbed "Die Hard on a battleship" when released in 1992. Seagal handles the heroic duties with his usual wooden efficiency, but the movie's greatest assets are a punchy script and the scene-stealing performances of Tommy Lee Jones and Gary Busey. The two play leaders of a terrorist group who take over the venerable battleship USS Missouri during its final commissioned voyage. They're crazed psychotics who seize control of the ship's nuclear arsenal, but they don't know that Seagal--as the ship's cook, no less--is a former Navy hero, lurking in the shadows and waiting to spoil their nefarious scheme. Director Andrew Davis (The Fugitive) helms the action with skillful style, and as the cheesecake stripper who proves handy with a hand grenade, Playboy Playmate-turned-actress Erika Eleniak gives Seagal another reason to strut his macho stuff. Under Siege is hormonal hokum for gun-happy viewers, but as action movies go, this one's a definite guilty pleasure. --Jeff Shannon Average Rating:
![]() Rating: - The best Seagal movie by farThis movie is from the brief period at Warner Brothers when Steven Seagal had decent budgets and good co-stars. This is an obvious ripoff of Die Hard, with Seagal in the Bruce Willis role, Tommy Lee Jones in the Alan Rickman role, and a battleship substituting for an office building. There is an inherent appeal in these movies as the badly outnumbered hero gradually knocks off the bad guys before finally confronting the head villain. Of course, Seagal can't really act, but that's not actually ...

Interestingly enough, there is no picture on the disc itself, merely the title printed around the inner circle.... Rating: - Don't spit in my soup!Casey Ryback (Seagal) is a lowly cook aboard the battleship USS Missouri. The only reason he's the lead cook and not in jail is the fact that the captain likes him, oh, and because he's a former Navy Seal. In the blink of an eye, the insubordinate second in command, Commander Krill (Gary Busey), has orchestrated the arrival a team of mercenaries disguised as busboys led by William Strannix (Tommy Lee Jones), and Ryback is forced to use his killing skills to save the crew, the ship, and ... Read More Rating: - Worthwhile for Seagal FansThis is one of Seagal's better films (funny how it still rates only 3 stars). Not quite as hardcore as some of his early fare, and not as preachy as his later films. A good mid-ground piece by a less-than-stellar actor. Still all the action and martial arts makes up for the lack of substantial plot. Clearly worth a watch. Browse for similar items by category:
