Under Siege (1992) starring Steven Seagal is a typical Hollywood action film that is unbelievable yet interesting to watch. A US Navy Battleship armed with Nuclear TomHawk missiles are hijacked by mercenaries who succeed to infiltrate the ship in the disguise of a surprise birthday party for the captain and then get the entire crew locked up at gunpoint. As improbable as it may sound, Pentagon is left scrambled for options as the mercenaries are headed by a former CIA spy who is well trained in taking down battleships, in fact, it turns out he has in his possession a North Korean Submarine that he was supposed to have destroyed. The chef of the battleship Casey Ryback (played by Steven Seagal) is the only one who has to save the world. How he does that in style along with a Playboy Playmate Erika Eleniak is rest of the story.
