Review of The Asian Connection

This movie is based on lies from the get go. It has Michael Jai White as one of the first names during the opening credits but he is only in the movie for ONE SCENE and does close to nothing. Seagal is barely in the movie and when he is he looks extremely bored, does close to nothing, and clearly either can't act or refuses to try. The story itself is really kind of bland and the main actor is ok but the actress who plays the girlfriend has such bad line delivery. There is also clear signs of the movie hoping the audience is dumb or doesn't notice stuff clearly on camera. Multiple times you have characters cocking their pistol or chambering a round only for the hammer on the pistol to not be cocked the next time the pistol is shown which is like half a second later. The gun sounds are horrible with some guns that are different calibers sounding exactly the same while others sound a whole lot louder for no reason. You can clearly tell they are using airsoft guns and adding digital flashes and casing ejections going as far as at least 2 points without me being able to slow down or even trying to look me seeing the blatant airsoft mags used on the ar-15 which i believe is a gas block back (the mag has the part that holds the bbs for the bolt to pick them up while traveling forward, the other one you can clearly see the mag is black where you should be seeing the follower). Towards the end the laziness gets even worse. The ending scenes of the movie has fire fights where you can clearly see there is no ejections from the guns as well as the vehicle Seagal is suppose to be in having another person clearly leaning out from where he is suppose to be sitting that is not his character because it doesn't look like him and has an assault rifle while Segal has a pistol when they show him. The last scene has Segals weapon being the loudest gun in the movie even though there is clearly a suppressor on it and his audio clearly was c not done the same time the scene was taking place or the audio for it took place. It literally sounds like it was recorded on the cheapest mic i ever heard and has a distinct hissing sound in it that comes in and disappears when he talks and only when he talks. I haven't seen a Seagal movie in a very long time since he has been doing these straight to video garbage projects for a quick paycheck but i didn't think it would be this bad. I honestly hope this is just one of the lessed movies he has done and not the norm for his career now days.
