Rahul Pradeep Well, let me get straight into the film. A regular story line already familiar to the audience. Son gets murdered, father out for revenge. A typical Seagal flick. The only difference I noted was Seagal got shot once!!! can you believe it????? But yes, he did. Other than that, Seagal just beats up the bad guys, who does not even land one back, and he does not even re-load his gun even once. He fires 10-20 shots back to back.Ya..kinda funny.Typical Seagal fanboys, this one is tailor made for you. For others who are hoping for a good action movie, maybe it's better you skip this one. No twists or turns in the plot. Very predictable. If you've got nothing else to do on a weekend, grab a beer and watch it. And don't hope for too much. Hope it helps.
Prismark10 Steven Seagal had great early 1990s as a leading action man although apart from Under Siege his films were not that good.However a growing ego and belly, a reputation to be difficult to work with and interview led a downward spiral of poor films many of them going straight to DVD.In Urban Justice he plays the dad of a vice cop killed on duty. Seagal is out to get the culprits no matter what. His trail leads to some rival gangs but one gang leader is in league with some dirty cops for money and drugs.The plot is simple although it gets lost with the stereotypical street hoodlums and gangster jive. Its a B movie filler with a leading man that is out of shape, puffy with a bad hair piece/implants. A lot of Seagal's fight scenes are done in semi darkness with him making similar moves such as taking the gun from the bad guy standing a few feet away from him. A move he has done for years and several decades in this film.The film is bad and only loosely entertaining mainly because of Eddie Griffin.
Mr X This is one of the better Seagal movie, and he plays the father of a dead cop who was shot in the hood... he's on to deliver urban justice... and he delivers! You get some brutal hand to hand combat, car chases, gun shooting and that East side gangster guy cracking jokes, plus a nice little scene with Danny Trejo. It's all very fun. The little side story with Gary and Isaah is just icing on this cake. Don't let the 5.1/10 score fool you. If you want top Seagal and B comedy with funny gangsta lore, this movie will surely please you. I can say this ranks easily amongst the top 5 Seagal ever did in my opinion. It is highly underrated.
namashi_1 Steven Seagal is in Top-Form in 'Urban Justice'. A Bad-Ass, Unforgiving, No-Holds-Barred Flick, that truly holds your interest. Seagal deserves the highest praises for putting up such a good show!'Urban Justice' Synopsis: A man with a dark and violent past, seeks revenge for the murder of his son.'Urban Justice' is no-holds-barred cinema. It entertains thoroughly & the action-sequences are damn good. The Screenplay is brisk & entertaining. Don E. Fauntleroy's Direction is impressive. Cinematography, Editing & Art Design, are fair.Performance-Wise: Seagal, obviously, steals the show with a hard-core performance. He's in Top Form! Eddie Griffin is as usual. Jade Yorker does his bit ably. Carmen Serano is decent. Danny Trejo appears in a cameo. On the whole, 'Urban Justice is a great fun. Seagal Rules!
