A joint task force operation between the Drug Enforcement Administration and the U.S. Army has been formed to dismantle one of the largest drug cartels operating in South America. Multiple attempts to assault the cartel's mountainous compound have been thwarted by a Scorpion-attack helicopter piloted by a cartel leader, Eric Stoller (Bert Rhine). After having several aircraft shot down, most notably a pair of UH–60 Black Hawks and their AH–1 Cobra escorts, the army turns to the new AH–64 Apache attack helicopter, which can match its enemies' maneuverability and firepower.

If you are looking for cool helicopter fights and 90 minutes of Apache helicopters then check this out. If you want deep characters and plot, look elsewhere. Tommy Lee Jones is honestly the best part of this movie as Nicholas Cage brings his full cageyness to this film. 5/10

This is generally a poor movie however Sean Young is especially bad in this. Low bar and she limbo'd it

on DVD, years without seeing it, movie made to the greatest glory of the Apache helicopter, plot similar to Top Gun, good aerial sequences, Nicholas Cage not yet past laps. Sometimes it has VHS image quality.

**A miserably bungled Top Gun impersonation with helicopters… why?**

Lame Top Gun with helicopters. Almost everything is a straight rip-off. Nic Cage is a much more exaggerated Maverick. Tommy Lee Jones fills the Viper role. Flight school. Overly cocky pilots. Contentious playful romance. Fire More
