his best movie (by royw-1) |
This was Steven Seagal's best movie. It was the only one where he focuses mainly on his outstanding Aikido ability. His fight's always look real in this movie and it's not overdone with automatic weapons like his latter films. The story is very believable because the CIA was covertly involved in illicit operations in Vietnam and Cambodia and Laos. One of the best scenes martial arts is a simple one: In the middle of the movie he chases a suspect thug through the streets to finally catch up with him and get some information out of him . A friend of the thug is walking towards <more> |
Excellent Film (by ClaudeSpeed1-1) |
This was an amazing beginning for Steven Seagal. He actually acts in this film unlike his recent work and actually portrays emotion and feeling into the role he plays. He is a good actor who genuinely got mixed up in the same role over and over and I think he realized this and it simply dulled him. As for the rest of the film, Pam Grier is bad ass as always here and doesn't disappoint. The plot is a typical police plot but executed well with the help of director Andrew Davis, director of another great cop film, The Fugitive. With help from Sharon Stone and villain Henry Silva, this film <more> |
What more can I say? Classic segal, too bad he is terrible now (by GreenSharpie) |
Steven Segal was a quality actor and martial artist. He was also a supremely versatile actor. The man could play bad ass Cuban, native American, or sometime unknown races that always seemed to be above the law, and take out a bad guy one by one, piece by piece with a Cuban/native American martial arts unseen by anyone while dropping monotone one liners that got the audience laughing at the slaughter that just took place. No one stood a chance against him, Segal hardly ever takes a hit from the bad guys, he just disposes of them like medieval wenches standing in the kings candle light. <more> |
Beginning of the Seagal Era (by ciscokid1970) |
This is a great guy movie, A awesome example of the Lone Hero movie. This particular movie is great because it is Steven Seagal's first movie, in addition he produced it and was one of the writers. Seagal was the rebirth of the confident tough guy, threatening to defeat his enemies and then proceeds to snap his enemies like pencils. Seagal started to form relationships with his special effects guys to masterfully show martial arts can be used to detach body parts like mr potato.This movie was low budget, yet a brilliant fresh story with plenty of action. This is a solid Seagal movie, for <more> |
The Best film Seagal ever did (by arthurclay) |
The whole CIA thing was magic. No one had ever done a story like this on them before. Well not a believable one anyway. Henry Silva was what gave "Above the Law" acting legitimacy. His character Kurt Zagon easily makes my list of top ten favorite villains. Henry Silva was 60 years old at the time. I hope I look that good when I'm 60. Wow. A guy I knew once said when he first heard Silva say "I'm gonna teach you never, never to [email protected] with my opium!" that he had only one reaction. "Whoa." That sums it up better than anything I could have come up with. This <more> |
Great debut film for Segal (by gangstahippie) |
Above The Law is the first and one of the best Steven Seagal films.Steven Seagal is a man who is now releasing direct to video films but back in the early-mid 90's, he was a very big action star.I would say he is actually one of my favorites from that era.I just love his movies. I love how he never gets scared and just beats on baddies by breaking their bones.His older films such as this, Out For Justice, Marked For Death and Under Siege are classic action films.Exit Wounds was his last very good film.I have seen a handful of his "straight to video" fare.They are alright but <more> |
ENTER....Steven Seagal. (by argentobuff) |
Steven Seagal made his debut with this lean and mean actioner filmed on location in Chicago My Hometown Illinois.Seagal is Nico a Chicago-Cop with a bad past.Once a CIA operative in Vietnam who quit over a torture loving Boss Zagon Henry Silva from hell.Cut to the present where his past rears up to bite him in the ass In the form of a Drug Dealer he is trying to put away with Ties to Zagon.As a mini war erupts on the Streets of Chi-Town.This is Seagal at his best.He starts with the pain right away in a nifty scene that recalls 1985's Underatted Chuck Norris Actioner Code of Silence. also <more> |
Segals best one. (by mikeandbeckynevada) |
This is my favorite Steven Segal movie. Some of the attributes portrayed are not that far from the truth with this guy. In a fight, I'd like to have him on my side, most definitely. As a martial artist myself, I know Mr. Segal " knows from where he speaks", unlike many of the run-of-the-mill action stars we see on TV and the movie screen. Segal can back it up. I actually have met Mr. Segal and his beautiful ex-wife then his co-star and a few of the other cast while they were filming " Hard to Kill " in Ojai, California in the late 80's when I was employed by the <more> |
Great fun! (by action-6) |
Above The Law called Nico in Norway is Steven Seagal`s first film, and it`s still a good film. Steven Seagal plays Nico Toscani, a hard-boiled cop, who`ll do anything to get the bad guys. On a bust, Nico discovers C-4, with which he is familiar with from his own past as a CIA-agent in Kambodja. The FBI drop the case against the man, who had C-4 in his car, but Nico continues to investigate on his own. Above The Law is good, violent and oldfashioned fun, and is definetely worth a look for the hardcore actionfan or Seagal-fan. 8/10 |
