Beyond the Law

Poor filming, poor directing, poor acting, poor fight choreography, poor script, poor continuity, poor character development, poor concept. I used to be a Seagal fan, but I am finally realizing he has nothing left in the tank. Was hoping for at least a watchable and somewhat entertaining film. Unfortunately, my expectations were not met in either case.

Wow this was bad. I'm surprised that Seagal still bothers to put out useless crap like this (although I'm not even sure of that). I honestly don't know what the point of this film is. All Seagal does is sit in poorly lit rooms (with sunglasses) and whisper incomprehensively whilst smoking fat cigars, oh and he puts on a weird Southern accent too. His total screentime whilst standing up adds up to less than a minute, including a 15 second fight scene and a hilariously bad shooting scene. I don't know if he's trying to hide his obvious weight gain, lacking the energy to stand or just being lazy, but at this point Seagal isn't even 'bad in a funny way' to watch. At least Kill Switch was genuinly hilarious to watch.

Everything else about this film is just generic and forgettable, there is nothing here you haven't seen before in better movies.

Should one expect good acting from a sub B movie? Perhaps not. How about an actual plot that isn't a rehash of every other revenge film? How about Mr Seagal without that fake New Orleans accent?

Time lost never to be recouped

Didn't they pay Steven Seagal for this film? What was he doing there? Wasted 1.30 hours for this trash.

Absolutely awful, Steven segal needs to stop making movies so idiots like me cant watch them.
