"Steven Seagal is Back! “Black Dawn” is the newest for our high kicking, perpetually ethical good guy. He delivers the rage of the good fight and makes us believe that someone in the government is there to help us. I classify this as a fantasy film."

Every movie gets worse and worse and worse and worse, the man needs to retire. Before I get into my review I'm going to talk about the cover of the film, notice those two guys fighting? Well they never ever appear in the film. Some guy thought it would be a good idea to put a couple of people fighting because it might sell some more copies.

And can someone tell me why they chose to make a sequel to one of his worse and most hated films.

There are close to no fight scenes in this movie and when Seagal is supposed to fight it's just his stunt man. The film is full of bad acting, dubbing, stunt men and stock footage. The story is lame, a poor excuse at trying to make a suspenseful movie. Don't buy this movie, save your money. 0/5

Ehh...personally...I thought this film was all right, not that great or not that bad but pretty average for a Seagal's film but quite an improvement than Seagal's recent DTV with an exception of Into the Sun. It had some nice cinematography and some good action scenes. And I felt it was a good paced film however there are some bad things about the film is that we barely see Seagal doing the fighting and all that. The helicopter scene toward the end of the film was poorly executed so ignore that but you'll enjoy this film because this film had somewhat had a different feel to it. The beginning and closing parts were good parts of the film however in the middle of the film, it felt like it was dragging away except with that chase scene which was pretty good except that effect looking part while Seagal and Davies were talking at the top of the truck, it's sorta of same thing with helicopter part. But overall, it was an ok film but entertaining though.

However, seeing on the back of the cover, seeing Seagal using two handguns...the appearance of Seagal, I would love to see him using that kind of appearance for his huge comeback on the big screen when it happens, it had a pretty similar feel for his first or third film- Above the Law or Marked for Death but without a ponytail. That appearance somewhat made me feel like it's right look for him to do for his comeback to the big screen just like same style as what he had for Above the Law or Marked for Death but at this present age though, it'll give a nice bang for his career.

Acting: 7.0/10
Story: 7.5/10
Directing: 8.5/10
Cinematography: 8.5/10
Action: 6.0/10
Pacing or entertainment: 8.0/10
FX or special effects: 1.0/10

Average: 6.6/10 (like I said, it was an ok film.)

And of course, this one is MUCH MUCH BETTER than The Foreigner, Out for A Kill, Out of Reach and somewhat better than Submerged for the film's look because it was not that cheap like how Submerged had. Maybe Today You Die too.

I rented this film from Blockbuster, they had quite several copies but almost half of it was rented out so I'd say around 16 out of 32 copies that were rented out but I wanted to buy it and they didn't have it so I have to wait til thursday or Friday to go to Best Buy or Circuit City to get it. It just came out on 26th in US.

I was very glad to see that he finally had special features on this movie. It wasn't much, but he finally had some on there. I did catch a glimpse at Steven's stunt double in the special features. He does resemble Steven, but he is scary looking.
I was dissappointed that the movie did not have a lot of what he is famous for...fight scenes.
I also have found that his past couple of movies are hard to follow because they are not well written.
Nevertheless I enjoy watching no matter what because it is after all...Steven Seagal.
