Ice-T stars as a naval pilot that fakes his own death, and later ends up employed by a Latin American arms dealer. He steals a stealth fighter from a U.S.A.F. base in the Phillippines, and uses the stealth fighter to target certain military installations around the world. A naval reserve officer is recruited to infiltrate his plans, and succeeds.

“I donu0026#39;t know who came up with this film, but the casting director and the props person need to be glued together for about a month just to teach them a lesson. President Ernie Hudson? Do you take us for saps? Did anyone notice that during the tense negotiation scene with the bad guys, the President and his cabinet are sitting in what could be characterized as a small grade school classroom? watching a 19 inch tv monitor? while all assembled around a small dinner table? You can actually see them all being visibly uncomfortable, since they all canu0026#39;t fit into the picture at once. Ernie has a look on his face as though the camera crew didnu0026#39;t let him eat any catered donuts that morning–heu0026#39;s hungry and wondering where his life went.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIsnu0026#39;t the President supposed to have a big u0026quot;situationu0026quot; room, with padded chairs, big screen tv monitors and a huge conference table for when he negotiates with bad guys? If I were a bad guy, negotiating with Pres. Hudson while his staff all has to stand over his shoulder so they can see the tv would be impetus for all kinds of mischief. I bet when one of them stands up, he better call u0026quot;fivesu0026quot; or someone takes his chair.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eAnd who wrote Ice-Tu0026#39;s lines? I certainly hope it wasnu0026#39;t the Ice-Man himself. Note to self, Ice: any tough-sounding one-liner that ends in the phrase u0026quot;peach treesu0026quot; is not all that tough to begin with. Wasnu0026#39;t this guy a rapper? Canu0026#39;t he sound any more intimidating than that?u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIce – T vs. Ernie Hudson in a battle for the world? Perhaps under-water living is the life for me, after all. Do yourself a favor..donu0026#39;t watch this movie. Go rent Ghostbusters, put on an Ice-T CD, and punch yourself in the groin for 2 hours.”
