Synopsis

Commandos take over a passenger train in a remote, mountainous region and install computer and radio equipment so that it becomes a moving command post for the control of a incredibly destructive military satellite. Their plan: have foreign governments give them one billion dollars in exchange for the destruction of targets like Washington. But Casey Ryback is on board, and attempts to communicate to the outide world where the bad guys are, and stop them before they can carry out their plan of destruction.

Critics' reviews

"Imagine my astonishment at enjoying 'Under Siege 2: Dark Territory.' (...) It isn't as good as the original 'Under Siege,' but it moves quickly, has great stunts and special effects, and is a lot of fun. (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of four)"

Roger Ebert: Chicago Sun-Times
"I have come to the conclusion that it's impossible for a Steven Segal movie to be anything better than mediocre, and this particular travesty may be his worst yet"

James Berardinelli: ReelViews
"This is a perfect summer action film experience."

Gene Siskel: Chicago Tribune
"It is so bad and illogical that even devoted loyalists should find their faith tested."

Marjorie Baumgarten: Austin Chronicle
"A solidly enjoyable formula thriller."

Owen Gleiberman: Entertainment Weekly
"There is no discernible train of thought in 'Under Siege 2', but it serves up exactly what Seagal fans want - a movie where the body count is higher than the IQ needed to enjoy it"

Desmond Ryan: Philadelphia Inquirer
"'Under Siege 2' isn't going to convince anyone that Seagal is Brando, though he often sounds a bit like him. But, taken strictly as an action sequel, the film is a lively show."

Peter Rainer: Los Angeles Times
