WillSushyMedia This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.
Lela The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.
Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
Staci Frederick Blistering performances.
FishersRJF This movie should have starred Victor Webster with special guest star Steven Seagal. Victor was is most of the fight scenes and did most of the better acting. Steven did his typical F word for everything and the final battle so he could be the hero. The plot was very lame and I don't think the little girl should have been so OK with all the blood and fighting. It would make more sense that the females were Sasha's wife and daughter, not siblings. That was a weird part of the story. Plus the love interest between Alexander and Lena was just wrong on so many different level and I think she was young enough to be his daughter. Gross!!! All in all this was a great Victor Webster movie. Not sure it should have given top billing to Steven Seagal, but he is the better known actor, so I understand why.
robertasmith There is something very creepy about Mr Segal's character being attracted to the young lead actresses character and she with him. One is 64 and the other is 29. I know it can happen but it is just unbelievable as portrayed in this film, and once there is one daft strand, the rest of the film falls and fails. This could have been a half decent film but the dialogue is poor, the acting wooden and the action scenes poor. The goodies recover from violent beatings far too easily, and the baddies always lose quickly. Why are the baddies always such poor shots. I am a fan of Mr Seagal but this film lets him down, as a few others have and I just wish he would stop making them.
namashi_1 'A Good Man' is a passable fare, at best. It works fairly as a Steven Seagal film & as a fan myself, I wasn't entirely engrossed or disappointed with this one. 'A Good Man' Synopsis: After an illustrious special ops career ends in disaster, Alexander (Seagal) goes off the grid and attempts to lead a quiet life as a handyman at an apartment complex in Russia. But when one of his tenants and her family fall under the thumb of a local gangster, Alexander is dragged into an all-out war between rival Chinese and Russian gangs; forcing him to not only defend the family, but bringing him face to face with an old foe, and giving him one more chance to reconcile his past. Keoni Waxman's Screenplay delivers a predictable storyline, but luckily, the brutal action-sequences along-with a mostly consistent pace, make 'A Good Man' a watchable, if not a memorable affair. Waxman's Direction is standard. Action-Sequences are all-out gruesome, but effective & sharply executed. Cinematography & Editing lack finesse. Coming to performances, Seagal is in his element. Iulia Verdes is seductive & nicely restrained. Tzi Ma is a convincing baddie, while Massimo Dobrovic has his moments. On the whole, 'A Good Man' isn't without its share of highs & lows. Watch it if you must.
andersonchris17 I watched it. Me personally I thought The director did fairly good on this one a lot better than force of execution. I felt as it the story actually made a lot of sense & me personally it kept me interested even when other actors were on the screen they were still fairly interesting. I thought the action was actually really good seagal had a couple of moments where he had a bad add fight scene & as well as adding a little humor to the movie seagal made me laugh a few times with some of the smart a$$ remarks he has in the film which i thought was really a step up. Victor web wasn't bad at all. & Seagal kinda seemed like he liked doing this movie he didn't seem that lazy or carefree when he talked he had a lot of moments where you could tell he was into it & also moving extremely fast when in shootouts or fighting. I honestly loved this movie because there was also no dubbing its all seagal %100 of the way!! One thing that gets me excited is waxman said absolution is darker & better than this one well if his words are right then its going to be one heck of a movie because this one wasn't half bad at all definitely going to watch it a few more times
