Director Andrew Davis's Oscar-nominated, action-packed thriller takes place on the soon-to-be-decommissioned USS Missouri. Disgruntled ex-CIA operative Strannix (Tommy Lee Jones), his assistant Krill (Gary Busey) and their group of terrorists seize the battleship with nuclear blackmail in mind. They've planned for every contingency but ignore the ship's cook, former Navy SEAL Casey Ryback (Steven Seagal) -- an error that could be fatal.
