659 [WG] Boyarsky Administrator 214 posts 405 battles Report post #23 Posted August 24, 2016 Can't speak for all Russians, but personally I really liked Under Siege and for me Steve is an iconic naval character. Maybe there is something special about early 90s, when after the fall of communism almost everyone became a fan of american action movies. Under Siege was one of those that almost everyone have seen. If you check Google Trend stats for it, you'll be surprised that it's more popular in CIS countries than in US. 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
