    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Steven Seagal doesn't have his signature ponytail in the film. The Navy doesn't allow hair to be longer than four inches.
    • Goofs
      When the private informs Ryback there is a fire, Ryback tells him to "take my pies out of the oven." The private is then shown lifting pies out of the oven, but the burners are those of a propane stove. The U.S. Navy does not use propane/natural gas ovens, to carry that gas on a ship in war would be deadly. All cooking in the galley is done on electric appliances.
    • Quotes

      Jordan Tate: So who are you? Are you-you, like, some special forces guy or something?

      Casey Ryback: Nah. I'm just a cook.

      Jordan Tate: A cook?

      Casey Ryback: [whispering] Just a lowly, lowly cook.

      Jordan Tate: Oh, my God, we're gonna die.

    • Crazy credits
      At the close of the credits: USS Missouri BB63 was decommissioned March 31, 1992 and is now moored at Bremerton Naval Yard, awaiting her next call to service.
    • Alternate versions
      The original theatrical, earlier home video and earlier TV airings (including the 1994 ABC airing) had the 1984 Warner Bros. logo at the beginning at the end, post-2003 prints had the 1999 CGI variant and fanfare at the beginning and the 2001 closing variant, both with the 2003 TimeWarner byline.

    Seagal's best!
    This movie is definately Steven Seagal's best movie. This movie is definately worth a look. The supporing cast like Tommy Lee Jones and Gary Busey make very good villans. Jones did a great job as the half insane mercinary who's in on a plot of hijacking a U.S. Battleship. There are a lot of actors in this one who would appear in director Andrew Davis's next film "The Fugitive" The action in this movie is great. I think this movie also contains some good cinematography by Frank Tidy. This is not a movie you can take seriously. You have to use your imagination and know it's not real but pretend it is. *** out of ****
