WTF country is he supposed to be in where the DEA has jurisdiction, anyway?

Looks fun but it's no Cockpuncher.

It's not the DEA that has jurisdiction, it's Seagal himself. He has jurisdiction everywhere.

Also, is it just me or is Seagal starting to look like Kevin from The Office?

I am 15 minutes into this as I post. The boob count is 2, not counting the strippers. The Mang count is about 10. I feel this shows much promise but the plot seems totally ludicrus.

You sound surprised by this...

[The Silly Swede Senior Member Find all posts View Profile Close The Silly Swede]

No. Just stating the facts. The boob count is very high though, which is very nice.

I also love when they show slo-mo flashbacks of events that happened 5 mintes earlier. Always a sign of good filmmaking.

[Ian Jane Administrator Find all posts View Profile Close Ian Jane]

Right. They're not padding the movie at all, but instead emphasizing the importance of what just happened five minutes ago.

I also feel the choice to cast a woman who obviously has no knowledge of the english language as Seagals wife is pure brilliance. It adds so much to the acting in the "emotional" bits.

If I remember correctly she's basically just there to get naked. Recent Seagal movies seem to excel in the casting of Eastern European prostitutes in supporting roles.

[The Silly Swede Senior Member Find all posts View Profile Close The Silly Swede]

Yes. This was a brilliant film. I love how SS calls people bitches all over the place. And I love the casting of an Iranian-English dude as a Romanian, but a Romanian as a russian. And the boob-count was the best yet for DTV seagal.

Glad to see I'm not the only one who appreciated this minor masterpiece.
