One of the worst films I have ever seen
10 November 2008 | by (United States) – See all my reviews

I used to really love Steven Seagal movies. His first films were great when they were made. When I saw that there was a new film with him, I thought it would be pretty good. It sucked! I didn't even make it through half the film. His obviously fake accent was the first clue. As soon as he started speaking, I knew I was going to hate this film. I found myself wondering how he ever made any good movies. Whatever he had in the beginning, he has lost. He wasn't the only problem. All of the characters were unbelievable and horrible actors. The "bad guys" were not intimidating and reminded me of old bad action movies. Another thing that was annoying was that they would take an unimpressive action scene and show it over and over again. I guess someone figured out how to use a new toy in their editing software, but it was not nearly as cool as I guess they thought it was. I know this review seems harsh, but if you watch the film, I think you will agree that Steven Seagal should retire. You would be better off watching static on t.v. than watching this movie.
