Mason's OUT OF REACH review!(Contain Spoilers).

Note:
There might be some gramatic errors.

I heated up some pasta & meatsauce & kicked back in my chair..


The movie opens with some shots of Billy Ray Williams (Seagal) taking a stroll through the forrest. He then finds a injured bird... he picks it up, tends to it & brings it back to his house. On his way home we hear the voice of his penpall reading a letter she wrote to him,saying that she apreciates that he rememberd her birthday.

A few minutes later we cut to Billy in a cafe. While sitting in the cafe Billy gets an unexpected visitor. They talk for a few minutes then Billy leaves.

Billy returns to his house in the forrest,packs a few things & is on his way out when he is surprised by 6 men + his visitor from the cafe. The men wants Billy to come along peacefully. At first Billy agrees,but then he resist & well... guess what happens then... hehe. He manhandles 6 of the men & dissapears into the forrest.

The next shot of Billy is him standing in front of a mirror & weighing the whole situation. He has then, in the meentime, recived a letter from his penpall telling him that she cant stay in contact with him anymore. Billy smells fawl play & books a planeticket.. The rest of the movie I will leave for ya guys to see.


FIGHTSCENES:
(There are 3 hand to hand fightscenes in the film).

1.The first one is in Billy's house,as you allready know. He manhandles 6 men with his Aikido stuff & then dissapears into the forrest.


2.Billy is on his way out of his hotelroom when he sees two men in the hall aproching his door. They kick in the door, hets to the bathroom & shoot it up.. then they proceeds into the livingroom were they get thier asses kicked by Billy, who throws one of them out of a window.


3.Billy & his female partner,enters a house & finds a corpes. They are then shot at & Billy slaps & throws the guy around a little before he rips his mask of & throws him across the room. The assasin escapes & Billy is left alone with a wounded partner.


4.Billy & the villan starts with a little handslapping & then proceeds out into a courtyard were they start a swordfight.


The fightscenes in the film is actually verry well done except for that swordfight,which I simply could have done without & replaced it with a good brutal hand to hand combat! Seagal's Aikido is still a great pleasure to watch.. he hasn't lost that mutch of his quick reflexes. He is still fast enough to kick some serious butt & defend himself.


THE MOVIE ITSELF:

The movie is actually verry intertaining,I got a feeling that the old Seagal is back again, and with "INTO THE SUN" coming up, I'm even more excited for his career. I enjoyed Out OF REACH more than Seagals last 4 films. HALF PAST DEAD was actually as good as OUT OF REACH, when I come to think of it. The only thing I cant stand is when they replace his voice with another actor.. it is totaly lame, his voice is one of his trademarks.

As far as I know it ain't July 20 yet...but boy you're real quick :D
Thanks for the review though I still prefer not to read any until I see it myself.

Glad you enjoyed it, bigdw. Thanks for letting us know.

My question to you: Did you like Belly of the Beast? If so, did you think this was better than that, not as good as that, or about the same? Thanks. :)

Great!!! Because I really liked Belly of the Beast, especially after Out for a Kill. I rather liked The Foreigner, though I don't think most people did.

Very good to hear! Thanks for responding. :)
Now I'm REALLY looking forward to it! :D
