Of all the former action stars (Van Damme, Lundgren, Schwarzenegger) Steven Seagal has had the most pathetic decline. While it is true that Lundgrens movies are filmed at a lower budget, at least Lundgren is in shape and is actually emotionally present in his movies.
Seagal hasn't given a f*** about his movies in the past 15 years. And this one is no different. There are few fight scenes, and the few there are, are so horrible and cheap. Seagal just touches their arms and they fall down. Not even his body double does much movements this time. The shoot outs are slow and just look awkward. Seagal just mainly sits down in this movie and mumbles something about honor, the past and friendships.
The movie has a weak attempt at trying to emulate a heist movie, but it fails miserably. The acting from the supporting cast is standard Romanian fare and the female lead is nothing special, and her story arc is garbage, she for no reason does a complete break of her characters logic at the end of the movie.
For some reason there are scenes with a head boss talking on the phone. You never see his face, and his voice is clearly dubbed over. They never return to this character, and it makes no sense whatsoever to have him in this film.
Don't waste your time with this movie
