I was totally surprised at how great this film.You could feel your paranoia rise as the film went on and as you gradually learned the details of the real situation.

The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

Seagal stopped trying after Exit WoundsIt looks as though all it takes to get him to sign on for one of these straight to DVD disasters is a decent budget for a buffet where he can contribute to his ever expanding waistline The money spent on catering for this mess obviously detracted from his wig budget, as his frizzy mullet is sadly neglected. Half his lines are clearly and poorly dubbed, and the lines he did deliver are breathless from the effort required to keep himself from falling overThe most amusing aspect of Seagal is the flattering and svelte pictures of him that grace the DVD covers

I've seen my fair share of Steven Seagal straight to DVD entries, but "Attack Force" has to be the lowest dominator in his cannon fodder. Oh it's bad. I know at times it can be hard to understand whispering Seagal, but where did that croaky dubbing come from?! It's laughable. However I did read this film was tampered with in post-production. Don't know how much of a difference that would have been, but you can only go with what's in front of you and "Attack Force" is a cheaply shot-on- video mess. Quite an insufferably bland one too. In this silly actioner Seagal plays some sort special agent whose special forces team (really they're quite useless) is wiped out and he goes about investigating why. There he digs up some covert military cover-ups and a drug-dealer who plans who contaminant the water supply with a lethal drug. In all honesty I had no idea what was going on, nor was I that interested to find out either. When it came to the action, while bloody in its aftermath
blotchy was best to describe it. It's a clinical display and its climaxes are a frenetic muddle. Looking more noticeable because of many boring secondary characters, Seagal lazily goes about his business looking all steely eyes, as conspiracies, scheming and back-stabbing fly about. It's terribly unfocused, as there's too much going on with its plot details. Characters come and go, while Seagal uninterestingly rambles on and impresses his young lady co-star. "I'm flattered. You recognised my voice"

So to continue my mammoth Seagal season I just finished watching 2006′s direct-to-DVD Attack Force. I IMDb'd the flick before watching to see what I'm in for and was greeted with a measly 2.4 rating. I thought to myself "it can't be that bad, I love terrible movies anyway!" I was, on the whole, wrong.The premise is good, it's an atypical Seagal revenge flick full of dead bad guys, bullets and blood. Everything I look for in a movie but the narrative, production and overall execution was the worse I can ever remember seeing!There are numerous times in which Seagal gets his voice dubbed by someone that sounds nothing at all like him for no apparent reason. I'd suggest it's poor recording equipment or a crap editing. Other flaws include very obvious set decoration, stones moving in the breeze by the wind, **ahem polystyrene**, stunt doubles of a different ethnic background and the aforementioned atrocious post production work. The editor needs to be shot!Seagal was actually OK to be honest, no Oscar winning performance but conventional and entertaining. I don't like bad mouthing Seagal but if I were his Steamroller Productuons team I'd have pulled this off of the shelves years ago.I gave it a 3 out of 10 and would only recommend watching this if the only thing on TV is X- Factor, otherwise give it a miss.

Yep, another one! Another bad Steven Seagal film. A sony pictures production, a low budget film, shooted in Romania... Jesus... Steven, come back to USA, we forgive you! What the hell we did wrong to leave your audience like this! But, the better question is - what did you decide to do with the rest of your career? Sadly - you decided to ruin it. Anyhow, Seagal is slow here, with funny fights, funny music that is mercilessly trying to be badass. Seagal is dubbed by other actor and that sounds so ugly! You can simply hear that is not him! What to say about a bunch of B actors here? Funny and dull, with no sense of acting, nor either any interest in their characters. The movie is very slow and very boring! You just can't stand it. 2000s were just a decade of Steven Seagal's "sleepy" Films - Cure for Insomnia. And this one can do miracles for your insomnia. There's also some high tech weaponry in the film, like Seagal uses some blades on his hands that have some small flashy blue light on the wrist, to look more cool, maybe. And those specific high tech stuff can't save this film, nor add anything new. I watched this film, because I am a Seagal fan. And I enjoy his Aikido! But, no Aikido here! I realize I made Seagal a focal point of this review, but that's all it is. This is a Seagal film. Title is not important. You can easily name all of his films Seagal 1,2,3 etc... If you are a fan, you can watch it, but don't expect too much. Better stick with his earlier 90s films.
