Another Steven Seagal movie that doesn’t have much to brag about. Most of his movies over the past two or three years have been a joke. This one is no different. Don’t get me wrong, I’m still a Seagal fan, but the last few films have been a waste.
I’ve noticed several scenes in his recent work that have voice overs not done by Seagal himself. They don’t even sound close to his voice! I’ve seen all of his movies, but you only need to hear him for a few minutes to know that these particular scenes are not him. I’m not sure if he decides to drop out of the project because he realizes it’s a waste of a movie or what.
Some of the fighting scenes are pretty decent, but are still way behind what other filmmakers are doing. They finally started using some of the wire tricks for people jumping and falling. It didn’t look very good though. The gun fights are pretty bad too. When the bullets hit walls, people, and other objects it doesn’t look real at all.
The movie still had it’s share of Seagal kicking some major ass, Buddhism, CIA, and Seagal saving the day.
I give this movie a C.
