There is some decent action, though the truck/ car chase scene was apparently lifted from another movie. The doubling is not over-obvious, I just wish they hadn't shot the fight scenes so close-up, because you can see in the making-of that Seagal looks good doing his moves. No looping his voice...

I did buy the Italian blu in the end. The movie was entertaining, but the highlight was definitely the first part of the film, in which Seagal plays a more vulnerable and dumber character then usual, being tricked so easily by the "baddie," and lying helpless on the ground calling his wife...

Yeah, I agree, despite my luke-warm "okay" assessment of it. That's why I was surprised by how much of a "nightmare" he apparently was. Incidentally, does anyone know if the "Today you die" Italian blu ray is any good? I don't have it on DVD and it doesn't seem to be easy to find for streaming...

I re-watched "Black Dawn" last night. It was okay. Interestingly, Vern gives it a good review and states that he feels Seagal is well-invested in the movie. I felt similarly upon watching, but that doesn't quite tie-in with the director's comments on working with him, which sounds a similar...

A very interesting behind the scenes "EPK" for Ticker, if anyone hasn't seen it.

I re-watched "Ticker" just now. I tend to enjoy Albert Pyun's work, and his ingenious ability to pull a movie together with minimal money and having various actors for only a few days of shooting. Steven gets plenty of screen time for the six days he apparently spent filming. The aikido scenes...

Re-watched "Fire Down Below" last night. One of his best and most mainstream. Interesting to see him playing a more romantic Van Damme type lead, and he pulls it off pretty well. Marg Helgenberger is too old on paper to play her role, but it's an excellent performance and certainly one of the...

There's several around but here's an example:

Good news to be sure. If it was ever gonna be one, it was gonna be Under Siege! I saw an interview with the lovely Erika Eleniak recently on youtube - I've liked for many years and not just for her obvious assets. She's a classy lady and speaks well of Steven, when it would be so easy to join...

I re-watched "The Glimmer Man," last night. I first watched it in late 2019 but funny enough I remembered nothing about it, other then perhaps bits of the phone-call scene. It's an odd, uneven mix, but ultimately more fun and better action than in Under Siege 2, which I re-watched last week...

Just watched "Out for Justice," for the second time. Quite a dark movie, with a lot of the f-word! A good one though, and I think some of Steve's best acting actually is when he's telling those stories from his youth, about the bloke in the trunk and then another to his wife (probably the best...

Just finished Marked for Death for the second time. Lots of nice action in it. There is the Arsenio Hall interview on youtube that's been there for ages to watch as an "extra," and I'm not sure if you're all familiar with the little making of that's has been on the tube just a few years (I...

Agreed. I look up youtybe or whatever for "special features" also. I watched "Hard to Kill" a day or two back and I can't find any relevant videos interviews with Mr. Seagal, Mrs. Seagal or anyone else which surprised me for one of his early big releases,

Thanks mate. Watched (pretty much) all of his movies once over the last 7 years, in random order, and just started watching them for the second time, in release order. The book should just add to the fun!

Thanks for the heads up on Seagalology, I just ordered a copy. What movie does the updated edition go up to?

That's interesting, I have it on Blu and was not aware there was some censoring for violence. Strange idea!

This is from a convention a few years back. Erica describes (on her "X" account) it as a happy reunion so presumably they got on just fine back in the "Under Siege" days.

I have had "Executive Decision" sitting around as part of my "Steven Seagal Collection" blu ray set for about 4 years or so, and finally got around to watching it last night. The main reason why I didn't race to watch it is because apparently Steven is only in the first 10 minutes (naturally I...

These two videos are certainly giving Seagal some belated martial arts cred, which is good! Lots of positive comments on youtube.

It's fun enough, and the commentary is of some interest on the DVD/blu ray.
