IMDB

Steven Segal is the cook on a Navy ship. When the ship is overtaken by some dudes looking to sell off nuclear weapons, he's the only hope. He's joined by Erika Eleniak, who helps him take down the bad guys.
Under Siege was exactly the movie I was looking for at the moment last night. I wanted to see a dumb action movie, and that's exactly what I got. Segal is a ridiculous star. This movie made over $80,000,000. That's astounding. We really need action movies like this now. This of like The Dog starring Jet Li.
Gary Busey and Tommy Lee Jones also star. They are great, and it's funny to see those guys in a Segal flick. The direction is actually pretty good on this one. Segal is the same in every movie, only his weight changes. He's thin in this one.

7.5/10

Rating Scale Explanation

The rating scale is simple. 1 is the worst 10 is the best and 5 is mediocre. 5.5 or greater is a movie that I at least find enjoyable. You could also think of 5 as a zero and 1 as a negative 5. I feel like that sounds even more convoluted.
