Matcollis This Movie Can Only Be Described With One Word.

Softwing Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??

Skyler Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.

Leofwine_draca Big man Seagal takes another step into oblivion with this dull and derivative thriller shot in Poland. The biggest problem with this one is the plot, which is so caught up in its own conspiracy/murky characters/lack of explanation that you won't know what the hell is going on most of the time. Characters pop up to die, people who die come back to life, people disappear and are shot, people fight each other. It's a lot like Lundgren's HIDDEN AGENDA in this respect, in that you have no inkling what's happening and don't really care either. On the plus side, the film is well shot, with some admirable effects at style (which don't always pay off). There's a lot of violence, people being shot, and 99% of it involves guns and gunfire.As for Seagal – well, unfortunately he's growing his hair long again, and he's hiding beneath a big coat throughout the movie. You get the impression at this stage in his career that he's no longer trying; that he's just in it for the money, nothing else. Watching him mumble and stagger his portly frame through the film is a little tragic for those of us reared up on the likes of UNDER SIEGE and its sequel. The martial arts sequences are few and far between, and you never see his face during these, which implies that a stuntman was used for every scene of action. Sometimes, like in TICKER, you get the impression somebody is pretending to be him, mimicking his voice, or when you see the back of his head you get the idea that it isn't really him. Even a stuntman is used when he climbs over a steel fence, which shows how far he has fallen from his glory days.The rest of the cast is made up of Polish people in bit parts and a few imported British actors, nobody that famous. The best performance in the film has to come from Max Ryan as crazed assassin Dunoir; he's having a field day here as the chain-smoking, grey-haired bad guy who keeps getting "killed" and coming back to life; he's the best thing in the movie and adds another star to the rating alone. Otherwise, it's typical straight-to-video fare, lacking in interest and impact. Come on Seagal, don't you have another good film in you?

disdressed12 i can't say i was really impressed with this Steven Seagal offering.i guess it was passably entertaining.i wasn't completely bored out of my skull.it's supposed to be an action/thriller,which is great.there's just one minor problem.there isn't a lot of action,and it's even less thrilling.really it's basically a genre movie.for me,this is the first time i have noticed Seagal use a stand in for some of his dialogue scenes. sometimes his character is shown in shadow or from behind or from a distance and it's clearly Seagal's stand in who also does some of the dialogue.this actually doesn't bother me,because to be honest,i thought the double actually had a better voice than Seagal does.anyway,that may have been the best part of the movie for me.anyway,i've seen worse movies.for me,The Foreigner is a 5/10

jengilis I believe Cockpuncher to be the best piece of work that has come out of the Steven Seagal factory in a long time. This movie was the first one I have seen since that fine film preview. My point? He is done. Every movie is the same. Maybe he will be good in Machete because he won't be the star. We can only hope.P.S. Thanks for speaking to UCSB when I went to college. It was an amazing speech. You really influenced some people out there.So I have to write ten lines about this movie? Umm....I like the smoker guy who killed a bunch of fools. Whenever anyone smells menthol's LOOK OUT. Because there could be a killer with a silenced glock (and another loud one) who wants to kill you.Is that ten?

KHayes666 Even though Seagal movies have become less and less entertaining as he gets older, this one is an exception for it had us on the edge of our seats....but for the wrong reason.The plot is Seagal plays Jonathan Cold, a rogue agent who's sent to retrieve a "package" and deliver it to its rightful client. Sounds simple doesn't it....wrong. This movie becomes convoluted with plot twists, heel turns, face turns and so much sub-plot that you really have no one to cheer for.Donsoir, Mimms, Van Eagan, Seagal himself...you really can't tell who's the real bad guy and who's not. In fact Seagal spends half the movie trying to kill Donsoir and the other half working with him....and not in the same order either. One scene he tries to kill him...later on in the movie they work together to storm Van Eagan's mansion.I know Seagal's like 80 lbs heavier than in his heydey but that doesn't mean he has to subject us to a plot like this. Its just way too confusing. I can figure out the plot, I'm sure a few others can too...but for the general public, they'll be left scratching their heads. Plus, with characters trying to team up or kill Seagal at an alarming rate, you have no one to get behind and cheer for.The highlight of the movie is Donsoir with a cigarette in his mouth or hand basically the whole film, like Lumbergh's coffee mug in Office Space.4 out of 10
