As a fan of the genre, i always give it a fair chance. But when you try to inject something intelligent or nuanced or some form of surprise-effect, then ... do it properly. Seagal looked old (despite the truckload of black hair dye) and overweight, but .. he is, ... so that doesn't bother me. The screenplay does not deliver, acting is pretty basic and uninteresting. Movie title is a real 'shocker'. Craig Sheffer deserved something better. All characters that COULD bring something interesting, were all killed within minutes. When it appeared they were trying to pull a 'usual suspects' theme out of their hat, that's when it all fell apart. Who actually did die in the end, who really?? ... Pfff, who cares! Because he's a legend, ..... 2 stars.
