Dear Steven, How have you been? I know its been a while since we talked, actually its been years. We used to be so close and we had some really great times together. I even remember the first time we met: it was the summer of 1989, I was young and impressionable, and it was love at first chop to the throat. I never saw an action movie quite like ABOVE THE LAW before and I couldn’t get enough. I watched it countless times and I was there opening day for HARD TO KILL and MARKED FOR DEATH. But something...

Mercenary For Justice

Mercenary For Justice

Murky plot finds Seagal breaking into a heavily guarded prison to save the son of a eastern European drug lord.

Postal

Postal

Uwe Boll’s best film yet, but its still completely unwatchable. ‘Nuff said.

The Strangers

The Strangers

Another home invasion thriller, but this one is a little too slick for its own good. Running only 76 minutes, it was still way too long.

Tropic Thunder

Tropic Thunder

A lot more action than I was expecting from a Ben Stiller comedy. RD JR was fantastic and Alpa Chino has to be the best rapper name ever.

Bigger Stronger Faster

Bigger Stronger Faster

This eye opening documentary explores the steroid use of 3 brothers who grew up idolizing Arnold, Rambo, and the WWF.

Black Dawn

Black Dawn

Sequel to The Foreigner.  Seagal goes undercover with a IMF-type ream to stop some nuclear terrorists.

Today You Die

Today You Die

A great title and opening sequence made me think this might be a throwback to the 80s, but I was wrong. Another typical confusing DTV entry.

Darkon

Darkon

An interesting look inside the world of LARPing. The film mostly focuses on the stuggle of two men and the fate of their kingdoms.

Submerged

Submerged

What originally started out as a monster movie script turned into another typical action movie once Seagal got involved in the production.

Into The Sun

Into The Sun

A suprisingly strong entry in the DTV era. A battle with the Yakuza allows Seagal to add a lot of his own Japanese interests into the film.

Out Of Reach

Out Of Reach

Seagal plays a wildlife conservationist who travels to Poland to save his 13-year old pen pal from a slavery ring.

The Happening

The Happening

I’m confused. Every single actor in the film was terrible, but the story was very compelling. I don’t know if I love it or hate it.

Belly Of The Beast

Belly Of The Beast

Director Sin-Tung Ching brings his unique style to this film which has Seagal looking for his missing daughter in Thailand.
