It's a fun cheesy cable TV flick, a slice of winking B movie giddiness that charms us into smiling through all the nonsense.

- Flynn Carsen: [fiddles with controls] Easy as pie.
- Flynn Carsen: [helicopter starts malfunctioning and flying erratically] Horrible! Horrible! High-velocity pie of death!

- Flynn Carsen: Where are the Marines?
- Judson: [pulls back shirt to reveal Marine tattoo over heart] Semper Fi.
