Ratings and reviews

Most probably one of Michael bays greatest movies not the best movie but OK for Michael Bay.

I have a love hate relationship with this film, that's all I can say Favrout line is " Green smoke I see GREEN SMOKE !" and I love the ambush scene in the showers

A big, dumb 90s blockbuster. One of many from this era. Quotable, preposterous, Zimmery.
