Yes I agree on the acting. Seagal offers no depth to his characters. He comes on as a mystic who calmly kicks your but if you mess with him. Is he beatable? Definitely Jason Statham would have him for lunch. And Statham has more of a personality. And let's see what else he doesn't do a great job of dancing I wasn't sure what he and lady were dancing it looked like a waltz but I could be wrong. I'm guessing he did the carprentry work or they did some creative editing.

You can always tell when someone has done martial arts outside of a dojo and knows that even some bad guys can fight (unlike some of the other martial arts stars who never get hit "too fast". right!!) Steven Seagal, being the hero of the movie, is supposed to win the movie, but I like to see the star get hit. Proves he's human, and knows that anyone can get hit in a fight. He's been a guitar player apparently since his teens. And as far as "fat", let's see you keep in shape when you're his age. I think he should be allowed to gain a few pounds.

His own complex fight scenes anymore, apparently. I saw "Belly of the Beast." That wasn't him doing those kicks. The fist work, sure. But nothing that requires any degree of body movement

I always wondered if his skills are transferable from movie to movie. For instance, he's a world-class immunologist in 'The Patriot'; does this mean that his character Gino in 'Out for Justice' is one as well?
My favorite ridiculous Seagal-the-Demigod moment is in the truly wretched 'Out of Reach,' where his character walks into the police department in a major Eastern European city (I can't remember if it was Prague or Warsaw, maybe?), sits down at a computer, and types in a password so that he can access their classified files. Bear in mind, he's not a cop, and he's not working with the police in any way; he just walked in off the street and used their computer. The movie just assumes that Seagal would know the password for every police database in the world off the top of his head, which is a super-power that not even Superman has.
