Broken Arrow (1996)

One of John Woo's American films. It’s light on the traditional Woo motifs, meaning it has little to interest his fans. Instead, it appealed to a popcorn-munching audience who prefer to see a helicopter blow up than a protagonist torn between duty and honour.

2 sounds about right.

Don't remember much from it other than being insanely bored.

A fan of Zimmer's work in this one though. Very Morricone-ish.
