- This page refers to the 1996 Film "Broken Arrow". For other uses of the term, see Broken Arrow.
Broken Arrow is a 1996 American action motion picture starring John Travolta as Major Vic Deakins with Christian Slater as Captain Riley Hale trying to stop those who have stolen a nuclear weapon.
The screenplay was written by Graham Yost and was directed by John Woo. Broken Arrow was released on Friday, February 9, 1996 and although it was disappointing to die-hard fans of the director John Woo's other films, it was modestly successful.
One major factual innaccuracy is the description of the stealth bomber as the "B-3". This can only have been intentional as the B-2 Spirit entered service three years before the film was released.

"Would you mind not shooting at the thermonuclear weapons?"
"I don't know what scares me more - lost nuclear weapons or that it happens so often you have a name for it."
