My rating: 7/10
Will I watch it again? Maybe.
I first saw this in the theater and I didn't go because of Steven Seagal. I think I'd only seen one or two of his pictures at that point and I wasn't all that impressed but I was a big fan already of Tommy Lee Jones. I really dig Seagal in this flick. He's fun and does well with the action. It probably worked to his benefit to be confined to a battleship. Jones is a blast and really sold the aging rocker bit, looking every bit the part. There's a good deal of fight action and even a little bit of nudity (man, that Erika Eleniak is smokin' in this picture!) The Warner Bros. DVD set of 4 Film Favorites Steven Seagal Collection presents this film and its only extra, the theatrical trailer, in anamorphic widescreen.
