    Synopsis:
    It`s not a job, it`s an adventure! Steven Seagal comes aboard and comes on strong in a fireball of a movie from the director of `The Fugitive`.

    When the USS Missouri welcomes aboard entertainers for the battleship`s last voyage, the visitors throw a party. A war party. Led by a rogue CIA operative (Tommy Lee Jones) and a turncoat officer (Gary Busey), they`re killer-elite commandos out to hijack the ship`s nuclear arsenal.

    They overpower the crew, except one man. "I`m just a cook", that man says. But he`s a cook with a recipe for action. He`s ex-Navy Seal and decorated combat operative Casey Ryback (Seagal). All hands on deck, action fans!

    8 / 10
    A great movie that has great replay value. Steven Seagal, Tommy Lee Jones, and Gary Bursey are all first-rate. The video is excellent, and audio is pretty good too. It's just a crying shame about the extras… because there are precisely none. Nil points to Warner Bros.

    This complete lack of extras is really beginning to annoy me! Still picked up my copy for £6.50 so can't complain! An excellent disc in everything apart from extras.
