Review:
This is another one of those low budget action movies, with terrible
acting and a silly storyline. Steven Seagal is hired to take out a drug
dealer and uncovers a drug ring that involves trafficking and
prostitution. One of the girls escapes a torturer and just happens to
run into Seagal who, against his morals, uses his skills to save her.
She then gives him information to take-down the drug and prostitution
lords with the help of his trusted friend, Chi. Seagal, actually wasn't
to bad in the movie and I liked the relationship between him and Chi,
his sidekick, but the film looked cheap and some of the acting and one
liners were awful. The action scenes weren't bad that bad, especially
from Seagal & Chi, but it's predictable from the beginning to end. I
wasn't expecting that much from the film, so I wasn't overly
disappointed. It's basically what it says on the tin!
Round-Up: It's a shame that Steven Seagal only gets the chance to star in straight to DVD movies because his cool demeanor and great fighting skills were great in movies like Under Siege and Marked For Death. After he started to put on weight, his movies became terrible and he wasn't taken that seriously in Hollywood so he must be starring in these low budget movies to pays the bills. Vinnie Jones has also become a straight to DVD actor who plays the same type of roles all of the time. Since his move to Hollywood from football, he has only started in a handful of big budget movies and his career hasn't really blown up like Jason Statham. It seems like he is also just starring in these movies to pay the bills! I did like Seagals sidekick, played by Byron Mann who starred in the terrible Streetfighter movie and had small parts in Red Corner, The Corrupter and Catwoman but the rest of the cast wasn't that great.
I recommend this movie to people who are into their action/crime movies about Steven Seagal taking down a drug ring. 3/10
