Yet another variation on the "Die Hard" formula,
with Steven Seagal as a Navy cook who moonlights as a weapons and martial arts expert. His
non-culinary skills come in handy when his ship is hi-jacked by the obligatory terrorists.
SEX/NUDITY 5 - Seagal's companion in this piece is Playboy's Miss July of
1989, Erika Eleniak. We see lots of cleavage and she appears briefly topless. We also see
her bare behind, clad only with a G-string. One kiss.
VIOLENCE/GORE 8 - Thumb in the eye, knife through the brain, and it works
it's way down from there to bone-crushing, shooting, and blowing people up. A plane and a
helicopter full of SEALS are shot down. A microwave is booby trapped to explode and when
it does one guy ends up with shards of glass in his face and neck. Another guy gets
stabbed int he neck, another gets choked. A bunch get shot. A helicopter blows up on the
deck of the ship and a number of guys are shown flying and on fire. One guy gets shoved
into a running saw. Miss July shoots a guy in the back. We see a guy get killed by having
his throat ripped out, we hear him gurgling.

PROFANITY 6 - These are sailors; profanity is prevalent. The F-word and its
variations, the S-word, the A-word, G.D., are all used often as well as some other nasty
banter. [profanity glossary]
DISCUSSION TOPICS - Terrorism, Playboy playmates.
MESSAGE - Good guys legitimize violence. Don't judge by appearances.
