Bobby LePire Film Threat If one is jonesing for a turn-your-brain-off actioner and is not too discerning, this will suitably fit the bill. Rated: 6/10 Mar 2, 2022 Full Review Josh Bell Crooked Marquee Seagal spends the majority of his screen time sitting down, and he only rouses himself for a few seconds at the end of the movie for something that could charitably be called an action sequence. Rated: D Dec 9, 2019 Full Review Read all reviews

William D One of the worst movies I have ever seen and has ever been made. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 11/27/23 Full Review Walter R The title 'Beyond the law' represents his support for war criminals! All films with him should be banned! Rated 1 out of 5 stars 03/17/23 Full Review Audience Member Overall, what should be a gripping and mysterious film is ultimately filled with dull and vague moments. As a crime thriller, this film fails to hook its audiences from the start, even when something tragic occurs. Steven Seagal and DMX are here to deliver cringe-worthy but still somehow fun and threatening dialogue consistently. Their lack of screen presence will only sadden fans of the leading actors as actor John Messener takes the lead for most of the film. Sure, little moments of entertainment can be found here, but the film is also highly forgettable and slow for the vast majority. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/11/23 Full Review Audience Member I was disappointed to find out that Steven Seagal was not the lead actor but in a supporting role when the review for the movie made it sound like he was the lead character. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member Instantly forgettable, cliched and tired plot, not sure on the editing either - despite it's one dimensional nature. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review danick s This was painful to watch and the last Steven Seagal movie I will ever watch. Do yourself a favor and watch grass growing. It will be more exciting. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Read all reviews
