They are all awful, they are the same plot.
"Oh he's a bad guy"
cut to violence
"Ah, lunch"
cut to violence
"Oh, thats the phone"
cut to violence
etc.

I think Seagal is actually pretty awesome! I absolutely loved Under Siege and i love the way he can kill you and he barely has to move, just one quick move of his hand. And your dead!
His movies are great in a bad way. The same way Van Damme, Arnie and Stallone are terrible and still great.
I always used to consider him a comedian, that was until I realized he is serious about his films...
well there's a point where his movies become bad, it's around under siege time after that they started to suffer from what is known as teh suck
tho exit wounds was kinda ok, mostly cause it was filmed in toronto and hamilton (the bike chase is king and/or main street in hamilton) but takes place in detroit, you can even see the tim hortons on king and james street in hamilton
still makes me giggle when i think about it

Well... Most of the films are meeeh, but Under Siege was so frickin' awesome that it weighs up for everything ;D
I love both Under Siege movies and Hard to Kill, the latter is a top revenge flick. But all of his other stuff and especially his recent 'work' isn't very good. He's a fairly poor actor, but he has enough screen presence in his better movies to make them watchable and to cheer him on when he's kicking arse.
Given the intellectually demanding project I am engaged in during the day I tend to avoid any film which makes demands on my brain.
In the evening I just want to relax and escape.
Steven Seagal does this. Even a cameo by him improves a movie - remember Executive Decision?
9:35 Ooops!

I'll tell you what's funny. Go into a movie store (rental or sale, it doesn't really matter I guess) and ask for the Seagal movie where he plays the ex-government agent called back into service to stop the terrorists. You'll get a good ten minutes out of watching the people trying frantically to look up this movie only to realize it's almost every movie he has ever done.
I sorta like him in some movies Under siege and pistol whipped (i think) There was one where he killed a guy with a credit card(killer interest rate I guess haha/attempt at humor)
I like his movies for what they are mindless action romps to rent for 1$ at walmart.

I can't complain about lack of plot variety, but when I sit down to watch one of his movies I'm not expecting a dramatic tearjerker.
No, I am expecting violence and I get limb breaking, face smashing, hell raising, violence.

I remember noticing that. The thing is, I've been to both Detroit and Toronto (lived in Toronto for a bit) and when I saw it for the first time I was living in SE Asia. For the longest time I thought I was just really, really confused.cleverlymadeup said:
But yeah, Seagal is terrible. Even for good action there's so many better options out there.
