lovettstough Personally I like all Steven Seagal movies and this is one of his better ones in recent years. There are only a couple a few of his movies I haven't seen since I have only Netflix & Hulu at home and no expensive cable bill. I was in the military and met him once up in Alaska while we were to do some military training. I hope and wish he would come out with something big in the theaters like he did in the late eighties & early nineties. This one had a great plot and story line since human trafficking is a real problem in the world today. I wish I was recruited to hunt down human traffickers but I wouldn't want to just catch them and bring them to trial.....once we have solid proof and catch them red handed I would shoot them on site without any hesitation whatsoever. I'm not a republican/conservative/right and never will be but especially major crimes if they're caught red handed there should be no trial because the trial and all that is just a waste of money so just punish them right then and there.

Leofwine_draca ABSOLUTION is another in the absolutely endless wave of action thrillers made in the past few years starring Steven Seagal and invariably shot in some East European country; this time it's Romania. Seagal plays the usual former special forces guy who moves in to help save a girl from the mob, only to find a sinister conspiracy in place surrounding a popular nightclub. Anyone familiar with the modern-era Seagal will know to expect shaking camera fights and plenty of doubling, with the hefty protagonist now one of the worst things about his own films. The rest is just about passable, with the likable Byron Mann (a Seagal regular) doing well as the second hero and Vinnie Jones randomly playing a serial killer in scenes that feel like they belong in a different movie. The fights are refreshingly gruesome with lots of justice meted out to the bad guys.

illusion-58765 After seeing SS in this movie, and remembering him in his much earlier films(when he was younger and trimmer) seems he has long since reached his sell by date He looks absolutely disgusting and should be home changing the diapers of his great grand kids instead of trying for a quick buck with this crap looking the way he does. I would 100% agree with every negative comment by other reviewers on this movie, especially its ''star'' Hope Jason Statham does'not go that route.

kishan_ninja For fans of Seagal, this is a movie to rejoice....for the normal audience..this is still a good movie.....one has to accept Seagal's craftsmanship with the combat defence and added that with his deep expertise in Aikido..he still looks quite menacing and not a man with whom an average joe can deal with...he is solid, stocky and lethal with his combat skills !!! though everyone complains he is fat and not muscular...i deny this ....he just does not look ripped like stallone or van damme...for his age...he is fine and is convincingly acceptable as a veteran martial artist and a mercenary !!!! The movie has good dose of action scenes and is not boring at all though is predictive easily which is fine with me !!!! A lot of credits also goes to Byron Mann who does a good job as Segal's partner and has an equally meaty role !!!! His combat skills are definitely quite deadly as well and is also very smart, stylish and macho !!!! Overall a good action movie !!!!
