Very, very, very, impossible....

It doesn't matter whether he's thin or not the doubles are here to stay and we are going to have to accept it. Seagal is 50 years old, these movies are low budget, and with the cost of insurance the producers can't afford to have the movie shut down while the star recovers from injuries. Seagal hurt his knee doing a simple wire stunt in exit wounds and so i think he doesn't want to take anymore chances. If you watched Chuck Norris at the end of his career when he was making low budget movies and Walker Texas Ranger he had a double doing all his fighting also. But that doesn't excuse him from completing any post production work on his films. If they need him to redo his dialog then he should go to a studio and do it. It will only take a few hours, he can't be that busy. He needs to care about the final product instead of just taking the pay check and running.

Summary: Another step in the right direction...
"Out of Reach", like "Belly of the Beast", is a step in the right direction for Seagal, getting back towards that formula which made him such a success. Although the action is minimal, and yes, it is someone else's voice dubbed over Mr. Seagal's at certain points, this film gets him back to having some personality, and the story was decent.
I am not sure what is going on with "Into the Sun"-I hear limited theatrical release...yet I see "Submerged" (V) on schedule for release sometime thereafter....Even if Seagal's anticipated "Into the Sun" does well...it will be like releasing "Ticker" after Exit Wounds" all over again...as a big fan I don't understand the thinking behind this...

In which case, he's finished as an action movie star.Kotegashi said:I don't think it has anything to do with his weight. It probably has to do something with age and insurance companies.
A lot of stars aren't aloud to do their own fighting or stunts.
