You expect the martial arts will be center for the movie!!! The acting is actually substandard to use a nice term for it We loved most of his films; but this one isn’t one of the favorites!

Steven Seagal will never be acclaimed as a great actor,but his films are fast paced and action packed,and almost never boring.Who cares if the plot is far-fetched or unbelievable? This straight to dvd movie was largely filmed in my hometown of Bridgeport,CT.,due to the generous tax credits given to the movie industry,by the state of Conn.Seagal is a disgraced ex-cop here,with a gambling problem.His 'markers' are bought by a mysterious benefactor (Lance Henriksen),who allows him to 'work off 'his debts by performing assassinations.Add into the mix,his ex-wife's husband (a dirty cop)-and the body count rises,cars are crashed and the film culminates in a huge shootout at Mountain Grove Cemetary (resting place of P.T.Barnum- our city's most famous resident).Not a great film,by any means,but an entertaining thrill ride.Read full review
Okay, okay. We know he's older, heavier, and hates to have a full length shots which reveal his portly size--but damn man, this movie IS GREAT. Now we know he's been turning these out like rabbits having intercourse (Black Dawn, The Foreigner, sHADOW mAN, Mercenary for Justice,etc.) and he has had mixed results. He had bad ones like URBAN JUSTICE, and great ones like MERCENARY FOR JUSTICE, but ladies and gents, as much as I might like to criticize his over use of stunt doubles for things like long shots of him walking or entering and leaving buildings, the man has put it all together for this flick. Great story, great acting, SUPERB cinematography and yes, by george, the old man is kicking and doing his own fight scenes again! In fact, probably his best since the UNDER SIEGE films. Mr. Seagal has re-earned my ultimate respect. If you like action, if you like Seagal, get it.Read full review
