OK...OK...Steven Seagal has made a boat load of $5.95 Wal Mart straight to DVD movies over the last 3 years...but Seagal is making a movie for release in January that is raising some eyebrows in Hollywood on the scenario that might just make the now B-Movie star back to A-list as Red State Americans search for a new hero ala John Rambo.
Under Siege 3:Terror Flies High
Plot Outline: Casey Ryback is sent on a mission to take out Muslim terrorists who have taken over a flight from Israel to USA.
Thanks for the warning. Wish I knew the good from the bad before I rent.
If Seagal has control, it will be horrid. Besides this is my favorite SeaGal:

You know, you almost have to respect the Hollywood lefties' forgoing profits in service to their anti-American ideology. Think about it. How hard would it be to come out with an interesting action-thriller where the villians were blood-thirsty Muslim savages and the good guys were handsome (and beautiful), upright American patriots? The thing writes itself. With a great director, a popular leading man, some good character actors in supporting roles, a lively script, and lotsa shit flyin' around, it would be a box office bonanza! And yet they don't do it. Mel Gibson, call your office!
Seagal was producer of "On Deadly Ground", too.
I detest him. Chuck Norris is a man of honor. Steven Seagal is not. Look at how he discarded his Japanese wife after using her family connections to make a name for himself in the world of aikido.
The second was pretty good too, I thought.
Chuck Norris could kick Steven's @$$ with his pinky-toe. :)
Is this in production, or did I miss it when it was released?
Look them up on the internet and get a lot of info before you buy or rent, that is what I do.
There are tons of reviews out there.
We gots RULES around hyar, FRiend! :)
Has Segal ever been cleared of being shall we say, forceful with the opposite sex?
I'll pay $10 bucks to see it over and over if the title it Under Siege 3: Brokeback Muhammad.
In Rambo 4, Rambo evens the odds against neo-nazi's picking on Indians...?!
Jenny McCarthy, of MTV bimbo fame, has publicly complained that when she auditioned for a part in Under Siege, Seagal told her she wouldn't get the part unless she was willing to, um, kneel. She didn't get the part.
Character aside, the man couldn't act his way out of a burlap sack.
But you notice the complete and total lack of any sexual chemistry between Erika Eleniak (who made the movie and belongs to that select group of Playboy Playmates who actually managed to have an acting career) and Seagal ?
The man was busy trying to chew more scenery than Tommy Lee Jones! No time for thinkin' 'bout nookie under such circumstances. ; )
He runs like a fat sissy from Broke Back Mountain.
That piece of pablum-tripe he made about the laska Oil Company was painful.
Sounds a lot like "Executive Decision" - where he only starred in the first few sequences of the film - but it had a similar plot line to this new film.
