Video Review

The choreography of violence is competent enough to satisfy the more violence-addicted sector of the video public. For even a modicum of redeeming charm, wit or humor, however, Seagal is clearly no Schwarzenegger.

Rated: 2/4

Hard to Kill -- which is even less subtle than its title -- is all show and no depth.

...a fairly ludicrous premise that's employed to impressively entertaining effect...

It's a highly amusing motion picture with a distinct '80's action feel, matched perfectly to Seagal's limitations as an actor and his endearing way with limb-snappings.

After a strong debut with Above the Law, Seagal follows up with a bombastic, all guns blazing revenge thriller. Nobody put's Steven in a coma! Kelly LeBrock is just gorgeous.

Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são mais ou menos, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, e os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes para fazer o filme ser bom.

Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars

Good movie. I saw it with cousins, aunt, and uncle in the Ritz Theatres. Then on Comcast. When I got older, I bought it on digital. Powers, Steve, and Kelly.

Seagal at action best. Predicable at times but you know what you are in for before.
