Paul Magne Haakonsen If you have seen any one Steven Seagal movie, then you basically have seen them all. This movie follows the stereotypical Seagal recipe of how to make an action movie. You take away a man's most important thing in the world, and that man will take on a whole gang land neighborhood and emerge victorious.Yep, it most definitely is an average Seagal movie, as he beats everyone, regardless of their skill and weaponry. And he only gets shot once, of course, while he himself takes down numerous gang members.The story is about Simon Ballister (played by Steven Seagal) who moves into a neighborhood under gang domination, after his son was shot dead here. As the local police is unable to uncover the murderer, Simon takes matters into his own hands and sets out to find his son's murderer, taking down everyone who stands in his way.The typical solo Seagal hero against overwhelming odds. But hold your horses, this time is he is not an ex-Black Op, ex-CIA agent, or ex-whatever. No, to add mystery, we don't get any information on his background or how come he singlehandedly defeats a whole neighborhood."Urban Justice" is filled with ridiculous blood sprays whenever someone is shot. The blood sprays several feet away from the one injured, both in front and back. Yeah! That's what I thought too. That was just lame.The action teddy bear (Seagal) does deliver his usual performance, both in acting and in fighting sequences. "Urban Justice" is good enough entertainment, taking into consideration that this is a very average Seagal movie.

becky878 Steven is mad as hell in this movie. Gangs are battling over drugs in this movie, and his son gets killed in the mix. That brings Steven to town for revenge. He is a badass dropping expletives and beating down gangbangers at every turn. There is police corruption, drugs, a hot chick that he lives above in a shabby apartment, Steven hacking into files, this one has so much to love. And man is he angry! None of that disinterested Steven like in some movies, he is downright laying the smack down. Lots of fight scenes, shootouts, driving chase scenes. And Eddie Griffin is hilarious. You don't usually get this level of acting from support characters in Seagal movies, but Eddie has some genuinely funny lines. You have got to check this one out. There are several quotable one-liners that you'll be using for years to come. This movie once again proves that you do not want to be on Seagal's bad side!

namashi_1 Steven Seagal is in Top-Form in 'Urban Justice'. A Bad-Ass, Unforgiving, No-Holds-Barred Flick, that truly holds your interest. Seagal deserves the highest praises for putting up such a good show!'Urban Justice' Synopsis: A man with a dark and violent past, seeks revenge for the murder of his son.'Urban Justice' is no-holds-barred cinema. It entertains thoroughly & the action-sequences are damn good. The Screenplay is brisk & entertaining. Don E. Fauntleroy's Direction is impressive. Cinematography, Editing & Art Design, are fair.Performance-Wise: Seagal, obviously, steals the show with a hard-core performance. He's in Top Form! Eddie Griffin is as usual. Jade Yorker does his bit ably. Carmen Serano is decent. Danny Trejo appears in a cameo. On the whole, 'Urban Justice is a great fun. Seagal Rules!

Samiam3 I like the way Urban Justice is set-up. It is simple strait forward, nicely paced for a ninety minute feature and the action is more visually coherent than anything I've seen Seagal do so far this decade.The film does not begin with him. It begins with LAPD officer Max Balister, who is asked by a contact to meet him on a side street, the second he steps out of the car, he is shot dead. After the funeral the next day, his father Simon (also a cop) begins his search for revenge, he heads into the rougher parts of town, where his son might have been spying on the drug operations. Going up against a wall of fire power, It will be yet another dangerous but playable game for Seagal.There are few bits in Urban Justice worth noting. Generally, out of every twenty action movies (with gun play), I would say that only one has a shooter who is smart enough to aim for the tires during a car chase. Urban Justice has one such fella. Needless to say, the idea proves futile, cause nothing can bring Seagal down. The fight scenes are much more coherent. Rather than being fast and choppy, the gun play here is slower and more convincingly brutal. Every time someone takes a bullet, it is a flesh wound which spills a fair quantity of blood (not too much though). In these shots, the frame rate is a mere five to ten frames per second. Slow-mo can be extremely cheesy if overdone, and sometimes Urban justice comes close, but not quite. Just yesterday I would have said, Seagal was now too old too kick butt well, but he doesn't do too badly here. He breaks a lot of bones, and necks among other things.Home video release or not, Urban Justice, is moderately enjoyable actually. Though far from great, it successfully avoids some of the pitfalls that have degraded Seagal's worst features.
