Asian Connection [DVD]

... but also kind of your typical bank heist movie, with foreign locations thrown in. Definitely worth the watch, but if you are a Steven Seagal fan (as I am), know up front that his role in the film is minimal by comparison, and that there is comparatively little in the way of martial arts in this film.

This film was interesting. A bank robber accidentally steals Seagal's money and is forced to rob additional banks. Seagal tries to track down who is stealing his money from the banks. White is wasted in a small cameo. He should've beaten up a few people at least. Seagal has a nice fight scene in the beginning. He yells and smacks people around for most of the film. He also has a love interest who he teaches martial arts. Nice to see Seagal treat a woman with love and respect. This is an entertaining film and the ending was not what you'd expect. A C is a love story. It's also about betrayal. Seagal does a good job with his scenes. He should've had a few more fight scenes to increase the action. His character was well written, menacing but likable. The film mainly features several exciting bank heists and shootouts. There are several fights two involving Seagal and one poor guy gets thrown out the window. The love story of the main two characters makes the film enjoyable. Brief nudity, profanity and violence but no sex.

This movie is average at best and way below average at worst with a super generic story. So i decided to watch a Steven Seagal movie and found this one with Micheal Jai White and thought it would be interesting. Not only does Micheal Jai White only have 1 scene in this movie Steven Seagal is barely in it even though he is the highest billed person in the movie and he is either looking bored as hell or mumbling most of the time he is in it. The main lead was decent but the woman who played his girlfriend was so bland and mono toned it was insane. The action is barely there and is horrible. They clearly used airsoft guns and at one part you can clearly see the mags have the adapter that goes in the hopup to feed bbs. The guns also sound so horrible and you can easily tell they are using digital flashes and bullet cases with multiple parts (even the end) they stop caring and didn't even attempt to add bullet cases coming out the gun and at multiple times you can clearly see the hammers are not cocked on guns they clearly showed getting the hammer cocked back by hand or by them chambering a round. The ending sequences are bad to put it lightly. You can clearly see in multiple shots the spot where Steven Seagal is suppose to be sitting has a guy with an assault rifle leaning out the window and firing. Also the rifle Steven Seagal fires is the loudest gun in the movie (out of horrible sounding gun shot effects) even though it is suppose to have a suppressor on it. Also the audio Seagal speaks at the end is by far a lesser quality then the rest of the sound around it. You hear a clear static sound whenever he speaks at the end like he recorded it in post on a horrible dollar store mic. A Yeit snowball records better audio than what was being used. No wonder why Steven Seagal is looked as a joke nowadays if he puts out horrible straight to video junk like this where he barely moves or does anything.

I can't believe I just watched another Steven Segal. It doesn't get any better than that. The rest of this review is redundant. The shooting is good. The pursuits are good. There is plenty of punching and kicking. There is explosions. The story is not complicated; I like it. This is the fourth movie in a row that I watched in 5.1 surround sound. The surround sound contribution was very relevant.

good

low cost movie

Good movie but I don't like segal being bad guy and really his part was more of a bit part not real focal point as normal films

I enjoyed it very much.
