What's your fav Tommy Lee Jones movie? CRIMSON TIDE: ruclips.net/video/-30DBXW2Zt4/видео.html THE HUNT FOR RED OCTOBER: ruclips.net/video/aJKQKAK9dc4/видео.html 90's MOVIE REACTIONS: ruclips.net/p/PLQHhQlj8i5dr8dJVR7bb5cRjIvAT-MeIM
Some of My Favorites with Tommy Lee Jones include "U.S. Marshals," which (You may have heard of) is a Sequel to "The Fugitive!" I'd also Recommend "Fire Birds / The Client / Volcano / Double Jeopardy / (and More) Men in Black!!" He also lends His Crazy Voice to one of My Favorites Kid's Movies, "Small Soldiers!" 👍
This was a very solid movie, with no real issues to complain about. In recent times, Segal has gone off the rails, and many complain he wasn't great to work with back in the day, but this was a better than average action flick of the time. While part 2 was more of the same, I would say that movie deserves a viewing as well, as I found it entertaining as well and I'll re-watch both if they happen to be on streaming at any given time.
honestly the only line that stuck to me from the sequel was " assumption is the mother of all fuck ups" other than that can't remember Under Siege 2 for the life of me.
That actually was George Bush at the beginning. They used footage from a similar event. The remaining classic battleships really were decommissioned during this time period, which made stock footage very useful.
For more of Gary Busey btw, check out the first Point Break (1991), also starring Keanu Reeves in a very early leading role for him, and with Patrick Swayze. Rookie FBI agent Keanu partnered up with and mentored by veteran likewise Gary goes undercover to infiltrate a gang a surfers suspected of being up to no good. ;) You'll love it.
If you wanna see Gary Busey as a protagonist, then watch "Eye of the Tiger" it's probably the only movie he has where he plays the hero lead. Although he did play one of the good guy cab drivers in "D.C. Cab" with Adam Baldwin and Mr.T in the early 80s.
@@stevedavis5704 Lethal Weapon is one of Gary Buseys best roles as one of the villains Mr Joshua working for The General played by the late Mitchell Ryan.
Steven's greatest movie. I can watch it anytime, but it was all downhill from here for him. Make this the only movie of his you watch and you can always have good memories of him.
Actually, his first movie "Above the Law" wasn't that bad. And "Hard to Kill" was so bad it was good, so full of cheese all you needed to fully enjoy it was a bowl of popcorn and a bottle of soda.
Yeah. He was in the right place at the right time. Once he got 'started', he had a few movies worth a watch for the time which increased in quality till we get here. Of course he had an amazing supporting cast that chewed the scenery with gusto.
Fantastic and hilarious, thank you. So the story is Steven Segal came out of a dressing room and announced that he'd just read the greatest script ever written. Someone asked "Really, who wrote it?" And Segal replied "I did." This was the script for Under Seige 2!!!
Erica Eleniak! 😍 Growing up with Baywatch, I had a huge crush. Her beauty makes the Segal side of the plot more tolerable 😅 Notable that the terrorists keep their word to her and leave her alone (until Segal gets her involved). Good for them 👍
I could never understand how Pamela Anderson was the big star of Baywatch when Erika Eleniak was in the show too. Erika was, and still is, absolutely gorgeous 😍
@@davidburke2132 Quantity vs quality. Erica was on for the first two seasons and left at the beginning of 3 - when Pam was brought on and went for 4 seasons.
I absolutely LOVE this film! The cast is fantastic, and I remember the film being pretty panned on release, but it is unintentionally hilarious, and it still stands up, if you don't take it too seriously. The third Die Hard film was supposed to be set on a naval ship, but Under Siege's success scuppered it!
Bit of meaningless trivia: actress Erika Eleniak (cake girl) was a Playboy Playmate in real life, and the issue of Playboy they were looking at before she arrived on the ship is the actual issue containing her layout and centerfold.
Jen, if you want to watch a movie about Pearl Harbor, watch Tora! Tora! Tora! from 1970. The movie "Pearl Harbor" is a Hollywood watered-down spectacle created to draw as many people as possible to the box office. While you're at it, you should also see "The Final Countdown", which is a fun twist on the Pearl Harbor story.
@@clarencewalker3925 It reminds me of lyrics from a song in "Team America: World Police" - "I miss you more than Michael Bay missed the mark when he made Pearl Harbor. I miss you more than that movie missed the point and that's a lot girl."
5:40 "Is that Tommy Lee Jones?" Yes, and the woman he's addressing, who plays the Playboy Playmate who's scheduled to jump out of the cake is Erika Eleniak, an _actual_ Playboy Playmate.
By 1992, the era of the battleship had long ended, but the Iowa-class were something to behold. Definitely look up the photo of the Iowa firing its full broadside to get a sense of how powerful those 16-inch guns were.
Thanks jen! You're the first major RUclipsr I've seen react to this or any Steevn Seagal movie. He's become abig joke, but he was a big action star back in the day, and this is one of few movies of his that critics actually liked, so it's required viewing.
@@ISavant 😂 I remember that movie was part of a Steven Seagal DVD collection I bought back in the day. Felt like they were really scraping the bottom of the barrel with that inclusion. It is a decent movie though. Who can forget that it was on that movie that he and John Leguizamo clashed. He still talks about that to this day!
@@markieman64 from everything i've heard, segal has always been a really shitty person based on what people who've worked with him have said, and of course his vocal support of fascist putin. it's not surprising to me that people who've worked with him might still hold a grudge.
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU 1. The first time I saw it I was in the Navy eating at a Mexican Restaurant in San Diego. 2. In the book the ship's an aircraft carrier. 3. "We'll just blame the cook." 4. Tommy Lee Jones says he's never not liked a character he's played. He also said that he doesn't have a job, just a hobby that pays very well.🤑🤑 5. Krill would have commanded the Marine to "stand fast" not "stand firm" 6. That was President and Mrs. Bush. 7. Seagal now lives in Russia.
I love how crazy Gary Busey and Tommy Lee Jones are. Like they are trying to out-do each other with how big their performances are 🤣🤣🤣 Jones obviously wins with his rant about cartoon cowboy shrimp... For another crime movie with a famed actor giving a wild performance (Sir Patrick Stewart 🧐) - Masterminds 1997
Is that the movie where Patrick Stewart wore a Manchester United shirt and shouted "Uniteeeed!!" because of course Man U is the only football (sorry, soccer) club that Americans know about 🤣
@@Ammeeeeeeer It is 😉 Liverpool was featured in Formula 51 and West Ham in Bullet Train, but yes, Man U is quite famous on this side of the pond. I still don't know the song though 😅
Hi, Jen, I have to dig into your archive on your off days. The coolest thing about this movie, to me, is the USS Missouri itself, a massive WWII-era battleship. Though I believe most of the filming was done on a different battleship which was a museum ship at the time. If you want some perspective on Steven Seagal, look up YT video of people talking about the week he hosted SNL. Al Franken tells it well, saying Seagal was by far the worst host ever, impossible to work with. Despite all the cheese from the film, you were delightful as always.
The ship is one of the last great battleships. The guns are 16 inch monsters. They fire 6 foot tall shells as heavy as cars. The gun barrels are 66 feet long. They can fire at objects up to 24 miles away. Of course today we use missiles instead of big guns.
Funny trend in Seagal movies: He gets more and more soft-spoken until he barely mumbles, and bigger and bigger until he actually does action sequences and spends most of his movies sitting down...it's remarkable...
In case anyone is wondering why Jordan Tate looks so familiar she is played by the same actress that played Elliot's school crush in ET. Ahhh Under Siege - back when Steven Seagal hadn't thrown a promising action movie career under the bus in record time...... Under Siege also has the same director (Andrew Davis) who made The Fugitive - some of the actors from The Fugitive play roles in this film also, most notably Tommy Lee Jones, but there are many others.
Great reaction Jen! Without a doubt best movie by Steven Segal, great physique charisma and presence but like Arnold not really an actor... Had everything for a renumerating career, but had personality issues, chose bad films and finally let himself go physically, a great example of a Hollywood miss... This movie however is quite good, had the right budget and people behind it, loved it when it came out (AND Erika getting out of the cake!), still holds up pretty well today, Steven lucked out with this one after that it all went downhill for him, sadly the same is true for his co-star Gary Busey, the guy degenerated also with to much of a taste for nose candy.... Tommy Lee Jones however remained top tier with one of a rare vilain psycho role for him and had a great career, what a contrast to Lt. Gerard the FBI agent, he also played a great character in Eyes of Laura Mars with Faye Dunaway, worth a look, he was very handsome when he was younger but aged quickly, a very talented actor who achieved great succes in Holywood, enjoyed this reaction as usual, great movie choice!
The girl that plays Jordan actually was in Playboy Miss July. Her first film was ET! As fir Pearl Harbor, too much of a romance mixed in with a historic background (like Titanic). If you want to watch a war movie related to Pearl Harbor attack, watch "Tora! Tora! Tora!". Then watch the original Midway movie with Charleton Heston. Steven Seagal is a martial artist in aikido. A TLJ movie where he plays another crazy villian is the 1994 movie "Blown Away".
Fun fact: 2:51 That is the same July 1989 issue of Playboy Magazine that Kevin was looking at in "Home Alone". 5:58 The female lead actress in "Under Siege" (Erika Eleniak) was the real Playboy "Playmate of the month" in July 1989.
If you want to see something similar, check out Passenger 57, Sudden Death, Air Force One, or the gloriously ridiculous Con Air (starring Nicolas Cage).
Movies you'd like - The Accountant, Bad Boys 1 & 2, Matrix, Sherlock Holmes, Doctor Sleep, Independence Day, Speed, Man on Fire, Italian Job, Boondock Saints, Mr. Right, The Mechanic 1 & 2, Real Genius, Adventures in Babysitting, Palm Springs
So, back in the early 80s, an American film production was in Japan making a movie called THE CHALLENGE about a small-time mob enforcer who winds up in the middle of a battle between two Japanese gangs. The filmmakers asked around for the most knowledgeable aikido guy in the country to design their fights. People kept pointing them to this skinny Italian guy. They said, "No, we want a Japanese guy." Everyone kept saying, "no, this guy knows the most." Well, it turned out the guy knew what he was doing, and the fights turned out great. He then got the gig of training Sean Connery for his fight scenes in NEVER SAY NEVER AGAIN, then he became martial arts instructor to the stars. In 1987, Mike Ovitz bet someone he could turn anybody into a star, and so decided to make this guy into the lead of a low-budget action movie called ABOVE THE LAW. It was a hit, followed by some more hits. A few years later,, the same director and actor were re-teamed, and UNDER SIEGE was #1 for four weeks in a row, becoming Steve's only Oscar-nominated movie (great sound, eh?). Alas, this success caused Steve's ego to explode, and his career never reached this peak again. The Director on the other hand, got offered THE FUGITIVE on the strength of this movie. And since this movie was the first real hit Tommy Lee Jones had had in over ten years, he tagged along and won his first Oscar. As for what else you should try, watch IN THE VALLEY OF ELAH for Tommy Lee and EXECUTIVE DECISION, which is the only other really good movie Steve got to be in.
FYI - the beginning USS Missouri filming and narration was actually done by a legendary TV newsman from St Louis, Mo named Don Marsh. He was selected to do a TV special on the Missouri’s decommissioning. The studio like it so much they used him to do their own version for the movie.
Seagal was a treasure in the 80s and 90s. Then he started during interviews and talk shows and he messed everything up by showing he's real personality
Gary Busey is from "Predator 2" with Danny Glover and Robert Davi (the villain in License to Kill) and "Silver Bullet." A classic werewolf film. Also, "Point Break" with Keanu Reeves and Patrick Swayze. And many, many more movies. -OG
Tommy Lee Jones was also a villain in Batman: Forever (and totally awesome), which also stars Jim Carrey and Val Kilmer (Ice Man in Top Gun). Not the best Batman, but the characters are most certainly memorable. =)
Good Afternoon Jen! 💝 Steven Seagal may have "fallen out of fashion" lately (to put it mildly), but He was one of the most Badass Action Stars back-in-the-day...and this is still one of His very Best! If You'd be any-at-all interested, He did make a Sequel to this ("Under Siege 2: Dark Territory") and I-for-one would Recommend it!!✌ On-the-other-hand, here's another Suggestion: You should consider the movie "Battleship" from 2012. It's another personal Favorite of Mine, and one of the Highlights is that it features the very Same Battleship that was used in this movie; "U.S.S. Missouri!"👍
The actual on-ship footage was done on the USS Alabama based in Mobile, AL. The sub is also part of the exhibit. While the plot is set for the Pacific ocean, when Segal is overboard in the water, you can see that water is muddy brown. That's Mobile Bay! The Iowa class battleships were modernized by the Reagan admin giving them cruise missiles as wellnas the Phalanx close in weapons system, updated systems throughout. There was even work on new shells for the 16 inch guns, whick could hurl a shell nearly 2,000 lbs over 20 miles to devastating effect. They were retired in the 1990's primarily due to budget cuts.
You were told wrong. "Above The Law" is the actual best Seagal film. It was his first, ambitious film in which he showed off a lot of his modernized Aikido. I also like "Hard To Kill", "Marked For Death", "Under Siege 2". But "Above The Law"... can't go wrong with that one.
You should try Van Damme movies like Lion Heart, , Unverisal Solider., Double Impact, Blood Sport, Kick Boxer, No Retrat No Surrender a Karate Kid clone. The are only two other movies I saw Tommy Lee Jones as villian which are JFK and Batman Forever with Val Kilmer, Another good Steven Segal movie is Hard To Kill
Lion Heart doesn't get a lot of hype, but it's one of my favorite Van Damme movies. I also like "The Quest" which is sort of like "Bloodpspot" set in the 1920s and better production design.
25:37 "But he is _not_ going to follow orders." The US Armed Forces have taught a list of leadership traits since at least as far back as the 1950's; every branch. One of those traits is initiative. It's _good_ to follow orders, most of the time, but the fact is, inevitably, you're going to encounter local circumstances that those admirals don't know about and have not accounted for. Under those circumstances, you have to have initiative to account for them yourself. The key to being a good follower is being a good leader.
2:51 He is basically become a living meme. But his first films were great cheesy action flicks, Under Seige 1/2, Marked for Death, Out for Justice and Above the Law.
Yeah, people call this a Steven Segal movie but really he's the weakest actor in the movie. The fight scenes are fine but every time he opens his mouth it sounds like someone just read him his lines and he's trying to repeat them before he forgets. This is a great old school over the top action movie but it's greatness has very little to do with Segal.
Two of my favorite lines are "somebody get my pies out of the oven" and "do I look like I need a psychological evaluation". But not only do I have rare occasion to use them, I don't think anyone ever gets the reference.
One of my favorite action movies as a kid! I'm so glad you are reacting to it! I remember watching this at my grandma's house and I loved every minute of it from start to finish. This movie is DIE HARD On a battleship. It was nominated for 2 Oscars: Best Sound Editing Best Sound Mixing. It made $156 million dollars against a $35 million dollar budget.
Fun review as always! The sequel, UNDER SIEGE 2: DARK TERRITORY (1995), is not as good--but still a fun screening. As for Seagal, I highly recommend his first four movies: ABOVE THE LAW (1988), HARD TO KILL (1990), MARKED FOR DEATH (1990) and OUT FOR JUSTICE (1991). Plenty of martial arts in those! Tommy Lee plays a great role in the Faye Dunaway thriller EYES OF LAURA MARS (1978). Check it out too!
Bay's _Pearl Harbor_ is pretty awful. _Tora! Tora! Tora!_ (1970) is a really good film about the attack on Pearl Harbor. It was an American and Japanese co-production. As well as showing the attack, it covers the political conditions and diplomatic events in both countries leading up to the attack.
Watch “Under Siege 2:Dark Territory”. Also “Code Of Silence,” which was done I believe by the same director of “Under Siege.” This director then went on to direct Harrison Ford and Tommy Lee Jones in “The Fugitive.”
Erika Eleniak went on to play Elly May Clampett in The Beverley Hillbillies movie based on the 1960s TV series. As for Steven Segal, Under Seige 2: Dark Territory is good as is Exit Wounds. A lot is due to the supporting cast. He is also forced to take an anger management class which gives an interesting moment or two. He plays a villain in Machete which is great because it stars Danny Trejo, Jessica Alba, Michelle Rodriguez, and Robert Deniro as a Texas politician who wants to build a border wall.
The Guns you asked about are essentially gigantic rifles that fire 2000 pound projectiles 23 miles accurately. 9 barrels and good gun crews can get 27 projectiles in the air at any time.
You want to see Tommy Lee Jones as a crazy villain - obvious choice is "Batman Forever" where he plays Two-Face. Bonus points - Jim Carrey is also in it and he chews the scenery just as well. As well, Batman is played by Iceman himself, Val Kilmer. Another film where he plays the villain is "Blown Away" where he ties to blow up Jeff Bridges
He was cast as Two-Face but he very much played the Joker with how manic he was. I think he's even said he knew nothing about the character but his kids or grandkids loved Batman so he took the role but based his performance on the only Batman character he had any reference for. Still worth a watch just to see the otherwise often stoic Tommy Lee Jones be an off the wall lunatic criminal.
Tommy Lee Jones has does "deadpan crazy" good too, for instance in The Fugitive where his character acts cool in every situation but is also a trigger-happy maniac.
This movie is really up there on the list of top action movies of all time for me. I won't definitely say top 10, I'd have to think about it, but I'm pretty sure it makes the top 20. It's certainly the best Steven Seagal movie, and it has way better villain actors (Tommy Lee Jones and Gary Busey) than a movie like this deserves. xD
Jen ,,, Gary Busey was Mr Joshua in "Lethal Weapon ps the USS Missouri is also the Battleship where Cher perfomed her classic music video for the song "Turn Back Time"
Didn't like Segal, but loved Tommy Lee Jones... Became a big fan of the movie because of the villain, and eventually Steven Segal grew on me! To this day, this is the only one of his movies I ever re-watch. Thanks for another great reaction, Jen.
Gary Busey was memorable to as other villain but Tommy Lee Jones definitely stole the show from Seagal as rouge CIA agent Strannix with Busey with as the turncoat Krill
"I feel like this is going to be 90s cheese at its finest": Jen, there is litterally a picture of this movies poster in the dictionary next to 'cheesy' :D AND ITS GLORIOUS!
I love how Jen went into this expecting trash, but from from the very beginning there were hints of something more. The naval footage, reverent of the military. The music, first just a pitter-patter like a mouse. The suspense building for so long, you forget there was supposed to be a siege. Under Siege isn't just a Steven Seagal movie, because it has such a magnificent ensemble cast. It's a CLASSIC! My low-key MVP is Sailor Jen for noticing those anchor earrings that I NEVER NOTICED IN 20 YEARS LOL! My MVP is of course the USS Missouri, the real star of the show from the opening scenes, though the movie wasn't shot there. Missouri was the peak of human technology and warfare in WW2, and the last great battleship before air power and nuclear weapons eliminated the need for such unimaginable dreadnaughts flinging hunks of steel bigger than a man for tens of miles. If a modern warfighting ship is a missile launcher, then battleships were guns. Bristling with guns, actually; they had 100 or more guns of various types including the big ones. Those guns were firing into Iraq during the FIRST Iraq war. Ships like Missouri inspired countless fictional stories that we still watch today, including Star Trek, where the Enterprise is considered a battleship too. These opening scenes aren't something you can do with computer-generated graphics. Those feelings of awe indicate the terrible world-ending power of the human heart, and why we unfortunately need military might to defend against military might.
If you are ever in Mobil Alabama they have the USS Alabama, which is a ship of this class, in dry dock as a stationary museum. Just driving past is incredible but take an afternoon to go on board and tour it and you will never forget it.
Uh, Jen...I do believe that Top Gun is also a movie(movies) that involves the Navy. Just sayin. Anyway I'm glad to see this reaction. My favorite scene in this one, is when Gary Busey dresses as a woman 😮 no my bad,it's the scene where the blonde pops out of the cake! Yeah that's it. Anyhow...Great reaction once again Jen! I was told by a little bird, that M.I. 3 is coming soon! Can't wait for that one! Here as always...thanks again Jen...Eric
there is always the sequal, Under Seige 2 with a similar amount of cheese 😁 Erika Eleniak, the actress playing Jordan Tate is in Chasers if you want some real cheesynes, she is in a few other movies too, Beverly Hillbillies....
You should watch "Executive Decision" starring Kurt Russell playing against type an unmacho character forced to lead a hostage rescue mission with Steven Seagal in satisfyingly brief role.
I also recommend "Above the law", one of my favourite movies from the 80s. The opening ist so good and Seagal shows that he is a master of Aikido in real life, very good martial arts film. There you see the difference between a real master and an actor who only plays a master of martial arts. Just watch the first 10 minutes of the movie and you see what I mean. 😎 Aditionally I must say we in germany have a big advantage: the movies are synchronized, they get professional german actors/speakers, who gave all the actors in movies german speech. And therefore the best voices are selected to suit the characters the best possible way. Steven Seagal is a very good example, his german voice is totally different from his real one, and this makes him so much better (for us 😁). I just heard his real voice now for the first time, and I couldn't believe it. What a quiet peepsy voice...

Agreed, Under Siege 2 is worth a watch. More of the same but on a train and featuring a star performance from Apple's Newton PDA!
This is an awesome movie but Segal is a huge piece of dogshit
Another great classic here ! 👍🇺🇸🇲🇽🇮🇹
I have one reason why Part 2 is worth watching: Eric Bogosian. Greatest crazy-like-a-fox villain I've ever seen.
That actually was George Bush at the beginning. They used footage from a similar event. The remaining classic battleships really were decommissioned during this time period, which made stock footage very useful.
For more of Gary Busey btw, check out the first Point Break (1991), also starring Keanu Reeves in a very early leading role for him, and with Patrick Swayze. Rookie FBI agent Keanu partnered up with and mentored by veteran likewise Gary goes undercover to infiltrate a gang a surfers suspected of being up to no good. ;) You'll love it.
The villain Gary Busey plays in the first Lethal Weapon is the model for his psycho bad guy in my opinion.
Anthony Kiedis from Red Hot Chili Peppers has a very small role in Point Break. He is one of the surfers when Keanu is taking a shower
also starring Tom Sizemore, and "Doctor Cox" 😊
If you wanna see Gary Busey as a protagonist, then watch "Eye of the Tiger" it's probably the only movie he has where he plays the hero lead. Although he did play one of the good guy cab drivers in "D.C. Cab" with Adam Baldwin and Mr.T in the early 80s.

Thanks jen! You're the first major RUclipsr I've seen react to this or any Steevn Seagal movie. He's become abig joke, but he was a big action star back in the day, and this is one of few movies of his that critics actually liked, so it's required viewing.
😎👍🔥
Executive Decision was his best role.
@@ISavant I agree!
@@ISavant 😂 I remember that movie was part of a Steven Seagal DVD collection I bought back in the day. Felt like they were really scraping the bottom of the barrel with that inclusion. It is a decent movie though. Who can forget that it was on that movie that he and John Leguizamo clashed. He still talks about that to this day!
@@markieman64 from everything i've heard, segal has always been a really shitty person based on what people who've worked with him have said, and of course his vocal support of fascist putin.
it's not surprising to me that people who've worked with him might still hold a grudge.
Jones and Busey were awesome villains - the primary reason I love this movie.
Being a Navy man myself and spending a lot of time on ships...This movie has always been a personal favorite of mine.
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU
1. The first time I saw it I was in the Navy eating at a Mexican Restaurant in San Diego.
2. In the book the ship's an aircraft carrier.
3. "We'll just blame the cook."
4. Tommy Lee Jones says he's never not liked a character he's played. He also said that
he doesn't have a job, just a hobby that pays very well.🤑🤑
5. Krill would have commanded the Marine to "stand fast" not "stand firm"
6. That was President and Mrs. Bush.
7. Seagal now lives in Russia.
I love how crazy Gary Busey and Tommy Lee Jones are. Like they are trying to out-do each other with how big their performances are 🤣🤣🤣
Jones obviously wins with his rant about cartoon cowboy shrimp...
For another crime movie with a famed actor giving a wild performance (Sir Patrick Stewart 🧐) - Masterminds 1997
Love Masterminds! That's where I became a fan of the band Stabbing Westward.
@@joshgoodman5667 And young Pete Campbell from Mad Men!
Is that the movie where Patrick Stewart wore a Manchester United shirt and shouted "Uniteeeed!!" because of course Man U is the only football (sorry, soccer) club that Americans know about 🤣
@@Ammeeeeeeer It is 😉
Liverpool was featured in Formula 51 and West Ham in Bullet Train, but yes, Man U is quite famous on this side of the pond. I still don't know the song though 😅

I like how Jen immediately sensed how weird Steven Segal is.
Great reaction, as always 😁
Terrible human, terrible actor, not too bad singer.
I don't know anyone that likes that freak
Erika Eleniak who played Miss July, Jordan Tate, actually was Playboy' Magazine's Miss July 1989.
Hi, Jen, I have to dig into your archive on your off days. The coolest thing about this movie, to me, is the USS Missouri itself, a massive WWII-era battleship. Though I believe most of the filming was done on a different battleship which was a museum ship at the time. If you want some perspective on Steven Seagal, look up YT video of people talking about the week he hosted SNL. Al Franken tells it well, saying Seagal was by far the worst host ever, impossible to work with. Despite all the cheese from the film, you were delightful as always.
The ship is one of the last great battleships. The guns are 16 inch monsters. They fire 6 foot tall shells as heavy as cars. The gun barrels are 66 feet long. They can fire at objects up to 24 miles away. Of course today we use missiles instead of big guns.
Funny trend in Seagal movies:
He gets more and more soft-spoken until he barely mumbles, and bigger and bigger until he actually does action sequences and spends most of his movies sitting down...it's remarkable...
Instead of Pearl Harbor, I would recommend the 1970 movie, "Tora! Tora! Tora!".
That was the real Bush Sr, they basically just used a selected clip from one of his speeches, and inserted it at the appropriate spot.
YESSSSSS!!!! You re not ready for the CRAZINESS this movie is.
In case anyone is wondering why Jordan Tate looks so familiar she is played by the same actress that played Elliot's school crush in ET.
Ahhh Under Siege - back when Steven Seagal hadn't thrown a promising action movie career under the bus in record time......
Under Siege also has the same director (Andrew Davis) who made The Fugitive - some of the actors from The Fugitive play roles in this film also, most notably Tommy Lee Jones, but there are many others.
Umm, I don't think ppl remember Erika as a kid in E.T. as much as they do from her being a playmate and her role on Baywatch...just a hunch 🤔
Woah, didn't know that one, interesting!
12:19 "Something bugs me about Steven Seagal right now." Unfortunately, this is about as likeable as his personality ever gets in movies and in life.
😂
My VHS tape with this movie was ruined in that spot where Erika Eleniak jumps out of the cake...
"The long kiss goodnight" is a great 90's action movie with a bit of cheese. It would be right up your alley! Great review Jen
Yes - Long Kiss Goodnight!!!! Sam L Jackson providing lots of laughs and Geena Davis surprising role as a black ops assassin.
"Speak softly, but carry a big stick." TR
Yes, he speaks quietly but he doesn't need to speak loudly. Action speaks louder than words. 😮
Great reaction Jen! Without a doubt best movie by Steven Segal, great physique charisma and presence but like Arnold not really an actor... Had everything for a renumerating career, but had personality issues, chose bad films and finally let himself go physically, a great example of a Hollywood miss... This movie however is quite good, had the right budget and people behind it, loved it when it came out (AND Erika getting out of the cake!), still holds up pretty well today, Steven lucked out with this one after that it all went downhill for him, sadly the same is true for his co-star Gary Busey, the guy degenerated also with to much of a taste for nose candy.... Tommy Lee Jones however remained top tier with one of a rare vilain psycho role for him and had a great career, what a contrast to Lt. Gerard the FBI agent, he also played a great character in Eyes of Laura Mars with Faye Dunaway, worth a look, he was very handsome when he was younger but aged quickly, a very talented actor who achieved great succes in Holywood, enjoyed this reaction as usual, great movie choice!
The girl that plays Jordan actually was in Playboy Miss July.
Her first film was ET!
As fir Pearl Harbor, too much of a romance mixed in with a historic background (like Titanic). If you want to watch a war movie related to Pearl Harbor attack, watch "Tora! Tora! Tora!". Then watch the original Midway movie with Charleton Heston.
Steven Seagal is a martial artist in aikido.
A TLJ movie where he plays another crazy villian is the 1994 movie "Blown Away".
The girl was the face of Bay Watch before Pamela Anderson. She was consequently quite famous at the time.
Naturally more pretty and classy than Pammy. Although, that is not difficult.
The Playboy Playmate is Erika Eleniak, who played the girl Elliot kissed in ET, which was her first movie role.
Fun fact: 2:51 That is the same July 1989 issue of Playboy Magazine that Kevin was looking at in "Home Alone". 5:58 The female lead actress in "Under Siege" (Erika Eleniak) was the real Playboy "Playmate of the month" in July 1989.
Seriously underrated action movie. Love the villains.
Jen I think you would like Passenger 57 (1992) or Executive Decision (1996).
Hell yeah, one of the best of 90s Die Hard knock-offs.
If you want to see something similar, check out Passenger 57, Sudden Death, Air Force One, or the gloriously ridiculous Con Air (starring Nicolas Cage).
Excellent choice. Cheeky favourite movie
Movies you'd like - The Accountant, Bad Boys 1 & 2, Matrix, Sherlock Holmes, Doctor Sleep, Independence Day, Speed, Man on Fire, Italian Job, Boondock Saints, Mr. Right, The Mechanic 1 & 2, Real Genius, Adventures in Babysitting, Palm Springs
The Mighty Mo, cool boat. I went on it when it was parked in Bremerton Washington.
So, back in the early 80s, an American film production was in Japan making a movie called THE CHALLENGE about a small-time mob enforcer who winds up in the middle of a battle between two Japanese gangs. The filmmakers asked around for the most knowledgeable aikido guy in the country to design their fights. People kept pointing them to this skinny Italian guy. They said, "No, we want a Japanese guy." Everyone kept saying, "no, this guy knows the most." Well, it turned out the guy knew what he was doing, and the fights turned out great. He then got the gig of training Sean Connery for his fight scenes in NEVER SAY NEVER AGAIN, then he became martial arts instructor to the stars. In 1987, Mike Ovitz bet someone he could turn anybody into a star, and so decided to make this guy into the lead of a low-budget action movie called ABOVE THE LAW. It was a hit, followed by some more hits. A few years later,, the same director and actor were re-teamed, and UNDER SIEGE was #1 for four weeks in a row, becoming Steve's only Oscar-nominated movie (great sound, eh?). Alas, this success caused Steve's ego to explode, and his career never reached this peak again. The Director on the other hand, got offered THE FUGITIVE on the strength of this movie. And since this movie was the first real hit Tommy Lee Jones had had in over ten years, he tagged along and won his first Oscar. As for what else you should try, watch IN THE VALLEY OF ELAH for Tommy Lee and EXECUTIVE DECISION, which is the only other really good movie Steve got to be in.
Patrons be trollin', apparently. 🤣
To be fair, though, I'm considering Seagal in 2023. Back in '92, he hadn't gone off the deep end yet.
They know I love 90's action cheese 🔥
@@jenmurrayxo 🧀 😎
FYI - the beginning USS Missouri filming and narration was actually done by a legendary TV newsman from St Louis, Mo named Don Marsh. He was selected to do a TV special on the Missouri’s decommissioning. The studio like it so much they used him to do their own version for the movie.
this is easily one of Tommy Lee Jones' best roles.
Seagal was a treasure in the 80s and 90s. Then he started during interviews and talk shows and he messed everything up by showing he's real personality
Gary Busey is from "Predator 2" with Danny Glover and Robert Davi (the villain in License to Kill) and "Silver Bullet." A classic werewolf film. Also, "Point Break" with Keanu Reeves and Patrick Swayze. And many, many more movies. -OG
Also Lethal Weapon in 1987 is a classic with Gary Busey as one of the villains along with Mitchell Ryan.
Tommy Lee Jones was also a villain in Batman: Forever (and totally awesome), which also stars Jim Carrey and Val Kilmer (Ice Man in Top Gun).
Not the best Batman, but the characters are most certainly memorable. =)
I JUST watched Batman Returns (posting in December) and now I really want to see more Batmans!
@@jenmurrayxo I shall look forward to thst release!
Coincidental timing of my comment given that Batman: Forever is the third Tim Burton movie! =D
Good Afternoon Jen! 💝 Steven Seagal may have "fallen out of fashion" lately (to put it mildly), but He was one of the most Badass Action Stars back-in-the-day...and this is still one of His very Best! If You'd be any-at-all interested, He did make a Sequel to this ("Under Siege 2: Dark Territory") and I-for-one would Recommend it!!✌
On-the-other-hand, here's another Suggestion: You should consider the movie "Battleship" from 2012. It's another personal Favorite of Mine, and one of the Highlights is that it features the very Same Battleship that was used in this movie; "U.S.S. Missouri!"👍
The actual on-ship footage was done on the USS Alabama based in Mobile, AL. The sub is also part of the exhibit. While the plot is set for the Pacific ocean, when Segal is overboard in the water, you can see that water is muddy brown. That's Mobile Bay! The Iowa class battleships were modernized by the Reagan admin giving them cruise missiles as wellnas the Phalanx close in weapons system, updated systems throughout. There was even work on new shells for the 16 inch guns, whick could hurl a shell nearly 2,000 lbs over 20 miles to devastating effect. They were retired in the 1990's primarily due to budget cuts.
Omg Jen first to comment here , i'm so stoked that you're reacting to this yes one of SEAGAL's best before he became laughable ! 😃👊
Ms. Eleniak was the subject of my first legally-purchased Playboy. Adorable, sexy, and talented.
Steven Segals one good movie. But notice he never comes close to losing a fight , hardly gets touched due to his HUGE ego.
You were told wrong. "Above The Law" is the actual best Seagal film. It was his first, ambitious film in which he showed off a lot of his modernized Aikido. I also like "Hard To Kill", "Marked For Death", "Under Siege 2". But "Above The Law"... can't go wrong with that one.
You should try Van Damme movies like Lion Heart, , Unverisal Solider., Double Impact, Blood Sport, Kick Boxer, No Retrat No Surrender a Karate Kid clone. The are only two other movies I saw Tommy Lee Jones as villian which are JFK and Batman Forever with Val Kilmer, Another good Steven Segal movie is Hard To Kill
Lion Heart doesn't get a lot of hype, but it's one of my favorite Van Damme movies. I also like "The Quest" which is sort of like "Bloodpspot" set in the 1920s and better production design.
25:37 "But he is _not_ going to follow orders."
The US Armed Forces have taught a list of leadership traits since at least as far back as the 1950's; every branch. One of those traits is initiative. It's _good_ to follow orders, most of the time, but the fact is, inevitably, you're going to encounter local circumstances that those admirals don't know about and have not accounted for. Under those circumstances, you have to have initiative to account for them yourself.
The key to being a good follower is being a good leader.
2:51 He is basically become a living meme. But his first films were great cheesy action flicks, Under Seige 1/2, Marked for Death, Out for Justice and Above the Law.
This was a great movie! The music rocked, too! Of course, your reaction totally rocked!! Thank you!
It's the only Steven Segal movie I can actually watch. Mostly because of Tommy Lee Jones and Gary Busey.
I gotta add Out For Justice and Marked For Death.
Oh. And Glimmer Man.
@@GangstaStan010 Nope.
@@magicbrownie1357 Fair enough. That's my list anyway.
😂
Yeah, people call this a Steven Segal movie but really he's the weakest actor in the movie. The fight scenes are fine but every time he opens his mouth it sounds like someone just read him his lines and he's trying to repeat them before he forgets. This is a great old school over the top action movie but it's greatness has very little to do with Segal.
The playboy girl is Erika Eleniak she was also in the comedy movie called Chasers which was kinda fun as i remember.
Good choice. Lot of stars in this movie
Good job. Don't forget the champagne. 😏
🥂
Two of my favorite lines are "somebody get my pies out of the oven" and "do I look like I need a psychological evaluation". But not only do I have rare occasion to use them, I don't think anyone ever gets the reference.
One of my favorite action movies as a kid! I'm so glad you are reacting to it!
I remember watching this at my grandma's house and I loved every minute of it from start to finish.
This movie is DIE HARD On a battleship.
It was nominated for 2 Oscars:
Best Sound Editing
Best Sound Mixing.
It made $156 million dollars against a $35 million dollar budget.
Fun review as always! The sequel, UNDER SIEGE 2: DARK TERRITORY (1995), is not as good--but still a fun screening. As for Seagal, I highly recommend his first four movies: ABOVE THE LAW (1988), HARD TO KILL (1990), MARKED FOR DEATH (1990) and OUT FOR JUSTICE (1991). Plenty of martial arts in those! Tommy Lee plays a great role in the Faye Dunaway thriller EYES OF LAURA MARS (1978). Check it out too!
Bay's _Pearl Harbor_ is pretty awful.
_Tora! Tora! Tora!_ (1970) is a really good film about the attack on Pearl Harbor. It was an American and Japanese co-production. As well as showing the attack, it covers the political conditions and diplomatic events in both countries leading up to the attack.
Watch “Under Siege 2:Dark Territory”. Also “Code Of Silence,” which was done I believe by the same director of “Under Siege.” This director then went on to direct Harrison Ford and Tommy Lee Jones in “The Fugitive.”
Erika Eleniak went on to play Elly May Clampett in The Beverley Hillbillies movie based on the 1960s TV series.
As for Steven Segal, Under Seige 2: Dark Territory is good as is Exit Wounds. A lot is due to the supporting cast. He is also forced to take an anger management class which gives an interesting moment or two. He plays a villain in Machete which is great because it stars Danny Trejo, Jessica Alba, Michelle Rodriguez, and Robert Deniro as a Texas politician who wants to build a border wall.
The sequel to this movie taught me how to download more RAM.
I tried but failed
The Guns you asked about are essentially gigantic rifles that fire 2000 pound projectiles 23 miles accurately. 9 barrels and good gun crews can get 27 projectiles in the air at any time.
Tommy Lee Jones. Man of the house.
26:09 during this whole sequence, he’s just literally taking these guys apart… 😂
⭐ NICE REACTION
⭐ SUGGEST:
⭐ UNDER SIEGE 2: DARK TERRITORY
0:49 You saw Gary Busey in Lethal Weapon!
You want to see Tommy Lee Jones as a crazy villain - obvious choice is "Batman Forever" where he plays Two-Face. Bonus points - Jim Carrey is also in it and he chews the scenery just as well. As well, Batman is played by Iceman himself, Val Kilmer. Another film where he plays the villain is "Blown Away" where he ties to blow up Jeff Bridges
He was cast as Two-Face but he very much played the Joker with how manic he was. I think he's even said he knew nothing about the character but his kids or grandkids loved Batman so he took the role but based his performance on the only Batman character he had any reference for. Still worth a watch just to see the otherwise often stoic Tommy Lee Jones be an off the wall lunatic criminal.
Tommy Lee Jones has does "deadpan crazy" good too, for instance in The Fugitive where his character acts cool in every situation but is also a trigger-happy maniac.
This is an excellent action movie, even with Seagal, but of course my favourite scene features the giant cake! :)
Ayyyy!
That was the same issue of Playboy that Buzz had in Home Alone.
This movie is really up there on the list of top action movies of all time for me. I won't definitely say top 10, I'd have to think about it, but I'm pretty sure it makes the top 20. It's certainly the best Steven Seagal movie, and it has way better villain actors (Tommy Lee Jones and Gary Busey) than a movie like this deserves. xD
Jen ,,, Gary Busey was Mr Joshua in "Lethal Weapon
ps
the USS Missouri is also the Battleship where Cher perfomed her classic music video for the song "Turn Back Time"
Didn't like Segal, but loved Tommy Lee Jones... Became a big fan of the movie because of the villain, and eventually Steven Segal grew on me! To this day, this is the only one of his movies I ever re-watch. Thanks for another great reaction, Jen.
Gary Busey was memorable to as other villain but Tommy Lee Jones definitely stole the show from Seagal as rouge CIA agent Strannix with Busey with as the turncoat Krill
Tommy Lee Jones was Two-Face in Batman Forever.
Gary Busey was the blond badguy in Lethal Weapon 1.
Steven Seagal the one who acts completely without facial expressions, no matter what 😂 This was his best flick for sure. Loved your reaction, Jen. ❤
you forgot Buster Keaton.... :-)
"I feel like this is going to be 90s cheese at its finest": Jen, there is litterally a picture of this movies poster in the dictionary next to 'cheesy' :D AND ITS GLORIOUS!
Jenn, you should also watch Under Siege 2, It is also great. Thank you for your reactions. How is Tara doing?
She's doing well! I hope she'll join me for a reaction soon 👍👍
@@jenmurrayxo I would Love to See Tara again, and I'd Love it more to See Y'all Both together again!! 💕
@@jenmurrayxo 🥰
I love how Jen went into this expecting trash, but from from the very beginning there were hints of something more. The naval footage, reverent of the military. The music, first just a pitter-patter like a mouse. The suspense building for so long, you forget there was supposed to be a siege. Under Siege isn't just a Steven Seagal movie, because it has such a magnificent ensemble cast. It's a CLASSIC!
My low-key MVP is Sailor Jen for noticing those anchor earrings that I NEVER NOTICED IN 20 YEARS LOL!
My MVP is of course the USS Missouri, the real star of the show from the opening scenes, though the movie wasn't shot there. Missouri was the peak of human technology and warfare in WW2, and the last great battleship before air power and nuclear weapons eliminated the need for such unimaginable dreadnaughts flinging hunks of steel bigger than a man for tens of miles. If a modern warfighting ship is a missile launcher, then battleships were guns. Bristling with guns, actually; they had 100 or more guns of various types including the big ones. Those guns were firing into Iraq during the FIRST Iraq war. Ships like Missouri inspired countless fictional stories that we still watch today, including Star Trek, where the Enterprise is considered a battleship too. These opening scenes aren't something you can do with computer-generated graphics. Those feelings of awe indicate the terrible world-ending power of the human heart, and why we unfortunately need military might to defend against military might.
I love cheesy 90s action movies! Movies since 9/11 are way too serious.
You are so fun, Jen! Love watching movies with you! Thank you for bringing such enjoyment to your audience!!!!❤😂😊😊
Thanks Skip! ☺️👍
The 90s had some brilliant films, and this is one of them. Tommy Lee Jones is just fantastic!
If you are ever in Mobil Alabama they have the USS Alabama, which is a ship of this class, in dry dock as a stationary museum. Just driving past is incredible but take an afternoon to go on board and tour it and you will never forget it.
Uh, Jen...I do believe that Top Gun is also a movie(movies) that involves the Navy. Just sayin. Anyway I'm glad to see this reaction. My favorite scene in this one, is when Gary Busey dresses as a woman 😮 no my bad,it's the scene where the blonde pops out of the cake! Yeah that's it. Anyhow...Great reaction once again Jen! I was told by a little bird, that M.I. 3 is coming soon! Can't wait for that one! Here as always...thanks again Jen...Eric

@@tomhoffman4330 Watch 'Blackhawk Down' the term little bird is used in that movie...Wingman.
@@e.d.2096 I've seen it but it's been a really long time...now I have a reason to re-watch it, Thanks.
@@tomhoffman4330 No problem LITTLE BIRD !
there is always the sequal, Under Seige 2 with a similar amount of cheese 😁 Erika Eleniak, the actress playing Jordan Tate is in Chasers if you want some real cheesynes, she is in a few other movies too, Beverly Hillbillies....
You should watch "Executive Decision" starring Kurt Russell playing against type an unmacho character forced to lead a hostage rescue mission with Steven Seagal in satisfyingly brief role.
I also recommend "Above the law", one of my favourite movies from the 80s. The opening ist so good and Seagal shows that he is a master of Aikido in real life, very good martial arts film. There you see the difference between a real master and an actor who only plays a master of martial arts. Just watch the first 10 minutes of the movie and you see what I mean. 😎
Aditionally I must say we in germany have a big advantage: the movies are synchronized, they get professional german actors/speakers, who gave all the actors in movies german speech. And therefore the best voices are selected to suit the characters the best possible way. Steven Seagal is a very good example, his german voice is totally different from his real one, and this makes him so much better (for us 😁). I just heard his real voice now for the first time, and I couldn't believe it. What a quiet peepsy voice...
