following in line with his last few movies, a dangerous man has seagal doing what he does best, killing people with such ease and brutalness, that it is literally a joy to watch, the story line is simple, the action fast, brutal and 100 percent seagal, now sure if you don't like seagal, of course you ain't gonna like this movie, but seagal fans should love it, because it has more fighting, than all his movies since 'fire down below and seagal has bought back his bad ass attitude from the early 90's, no the movie isn't a masterpiece, but it is a solid action movie that delivers everything you'd expect of the genre and the star, i recommend

Let me just start off by saying I love this movie. It's brutal, ridiculous and funny all at once. Some hilariously nasty insults, great characters to look at, some T&A, great fight scenes by Seagal, lots of gunplay, excellent soundtrack and directing. Seagal is an Indian talking like a black man? Ha ha ha! What a comedian. Any fan of over-the-top action movies should enjoy this. The gun face-beating ( "I'm gonna eff you up ugly") scene is perfect in its bloody violence. Other scenes should've continued this gory mayhem, but did not. Specifically, the giant log saw scene. There should've been decapitation, amputation, and guts flying all over, but instead we get some small unidentified piece of something is tossed. Hence, my only complaint about this movie: Amp it up more, not tone it down. Plot? We don't need no stinkin' plot. This movie should've been called "Everybody Kills Everybody."

When you hear a pock - marked dog - ugly corrupt cop describe a movie's hero thusly you can be sure he isn't going to be crooning "Somewhwere over the rainbow" into the mirror as he puts on his blusher.And so it proves as our Steve,meaner and nastier than for some time,comes off the blocks like Usein Bolt(well,probably not a lot like Usein Bolt,actually) and starts as he means to carry on,killing bad guys regardless of race,creed or colour. "A dangerous man" has a complicated plot,but just point Steve where you want him to go,rather like a Rottweiler,and unleash him and he will get the job done. Russian,Chinese and bent lawmen get short shrift from Shane the innocent ex - con with a grudge.Perhaps Steve should try playing a Nuclear Physicist or a Brain Surgeon in his next movie,just to flex his acting muscles. Despite it's lack of almost any merit as judged by orthodox standards, "A dangerous Man" is so preposterously silly and noisy and badly acted that I actually enjoyed it. I still love you,Steveie - baby.

Steven Seagal stars as a wrongfully imprisoned akidio expert who defends a girl from Chinese mobsters (led by Byron Mann) and who joins forces with Russian mobsters to defend the girl in question. Steven Seagal movies tend to be really lame these days. In fact I don't think i've enjoyed a Seagal movie in a long time, mainly because the movies are terrible in the worst kind of way, mainly stunt doubles, the same plot about Seagal being some type of secret agent who goes rogue when his employers double-cross him (ad nauseam) Still this movie worked in such a way that I actually bought the film for 5 bucks and didn't feel too bad about such. A Dangerous Man works because it is so fast paced, certainly Seagal seems to care more than usual and it would appear he wasn't dubbed and his fight sequences have less stunt doubles. Indeed Seagal appears trimmer than usual. Still there are still some flaws mainly the story is routine and clichéd but the action element is there, Mann makes for an enjoyable villain and the chick in question is hot. Indeed you can do a lot worse in terms of Seagal movies. Indeed I must admit I only rented this (after swearing Seagal off after Against The Dark) because of his part in Machete. Although if Seagal can manage such level of quality, one won't dread renting the latest Seagal flick.* * out of 4-(Fair)
