The "team thing" back again for General Commander?! Nooooo!! Please say it isn't so?!
. But I definitely agree 110% with your points.
There's surely only so many movies one can make that basically includes the tried and tested same old, same old? At least try and mix it up a little, right? You'd think that Seagal himself would be getting bored with the same ol' thing, never mind his fans! But - get this - just imagine if he has the audacity to include yet more blues songs in his next film! I wouldn't put it past him!
Steven is obviously talented in so many ways, but he also, as you quite rightly say, lets himself down in so many ways too (some of which you've raised above in your post). But come to think of it, that's actually good in some ways as it just goes to show that he has flaws and that he is indeed human like the rest of us! LMAO!

Finally watched Attrition last night!
Surprisingly, it was on TV (on one of the regular channels). As I wrote before, Italian television seems to be really over Seagal: I have no idea why, as he is not very popular here any more (compared to Eastern Europan countries, for example). Next week we're having Contract to Kill and then Sniper Special Ops. Whoo-hoo!
The movie was dubbed in Italian (as all movies are over here), but the Thai bits were dubbed as well (which I didn't like), so there were no subtitles at all.
As for the movie itself, it's sad to say I found it greatly disappointing. Story didn't make much sense, action was lackluster, characters were unmemorable, and CGI looked straight out of a videogame. That said, Seagal looked a bit more in shape here than in his previous efforts. Unfortunately, that's the only positive thing I can think of about the movie.

A little late but here is my thoughts on Attrition. After 3 watches I can say that this movie is good but I was expecting something better (which may be my fault). Seagal gives one of his better performances in his dtv era and the fights are decent with Seagal mostly performing them. My problem is that it was promoted as his best movie in 20 years and I don't agree with that statement. Pistol Whipped, Urban Justice, Driven to Kill were much better movies with more hardcore violent action. The action in Attrition was a bit tame and too short. The final fight was good but over to soon. It's still a good movie just not one of his best.

Great review! So sad that this movie still didn't get a wide release. In Europe it's only released in 3 countries or so.
I wish that 365 flix didn't exist. That whole website is dead the way
