Very Cool!!!
To me, this movie is perfection.
A lot more amusing than I thought it would be.
This is a gorgeous movie made by a gorgeous spirit.
...and you never were much of an actor in the first place.This movie features a much older, chubbier Steven Segal hashing out the same basic threadbare plot lines he has become known for, with no facial animation and (NEW) no real action (but there is some really quick camera-shot gimmicks?) Come to think of it, he doesn't really move quickly at ANY point in this movie. (In the outtakes I would expect to see many shots of Segal zipping around, climbing in and out of in those little lot buggies?) The amazing thing is how they somehow were able to burn through a $10,000,000 budget. What did they spend it on? Even Segal drives around in a '80s era truck, and most of the other vehicles were little better. One modification my boyfriend would like that was on that truck: that windshield that can stop multiple bullets?Anyway, disappointing all round.
Am a huge fan of Seagal, my father and I are both huge fans of him and we both love his movies. I also seen some of his new movies some are bad some are good, but this one is the worst one of all! This movies is waste of money and time! Seagal you own me 94.min of my time! This movie of yours is real disappointment!! This is Keoni Waxman's movie and is really awful! He's other movie's A Dangerous Man and Hunt To Kill are one of his best one so far,but this on is a big disappointment for all Seagal fans! When the movie begins it supposed to be an awesome action movie with a great story line. After Roland Sallinger an L.A. cop nearly gets killed by his greedy partner Trevor and then goes to hospital. His partner Trevor shows up and try to kill Sallinger and get's killed by Sallinger himself in my story Trevor shouldn't showed up in Hospital to kill Sallinger, he should gave out his statement what happened: quit the force after his partner was shot and wounded and would have flies with the money he stole from drug dealers. Sallinger recovers his attack after one year later his being forced to retire for medical reasons and get's contact from his best friend he flees to San Antonio, Texas,after being asked for his help to work as a bodyguard for the daughter of a wealthy businessman his best friend. When mobsters set up and kidnap Nikita, Roland goes after them and find's out that his ex greedy partner works for a big shot mobster like Cross. After he run out of money he started working for big shot's like Cross. At the end of the movie it supposed to be a great showdown between mobsters and Trevor like on some car yard during daylight but no! Sallinger should get his revenge and justice on Trevor for betraying him , but no! Then Nikita's boyfriend "Mason Silver" what is his story? He supposed be a great boxer but, instead he was a chicken and mean selfish person whole entire movie. He was a drug addicted and he treated Nikita low. He lied that he loved her, when he didn't he set her up and betrayed her, mostly because of his greed for money. At the end of the movie he should die, Seagal should kill him but he didn't! The real Nikita's boyfriend Mason should might be a loser, but he should show his boxing skills and been a Seagal's sidekick! Not some retarded loser!! Then what's was wrong with this music in this picture? Some dumb Mexican awful old music. The story was in America not Mexico! This movie is really awful. So am giving this movie 1 out of 10. Watch: Today You Die and A Dangerous Man instead stay away from this movie. Oh and one last thing: the acting was bad, the dialog was bad and the fighting scene were awful bad. Seegal you disappointed me in your Aikido style.
A dirty cop, turns on his own partner, Roland (Steven Seagal), shooting him for not agreeing to take some drug money during a bust, not knowing that the bullet to the chest wouldn't in fact kill him, returns to the hospital to finish the job and isn't successful. With help from his girlfriend Regina, Roland will have to recover from his injuries. Forced into a police mandated retirement, an old friend, Conner Wells(Stephan Duvall) from his past(both were cop partners in Texas) calls on Roland to protect his daughter, Nikita(Liezl Carstens) from a rival, Jason Cross(Luce Rains)who is after his land's rich uranium. Cross attempted once before to kidnap Nikita, failing after she narrowly escapes so Conner calls upon Roland's services to help keep her safe. When, after much in the way of security fails, Nikita is finally captured by Cross, Roland will go after all of them, with a little help by chauffeur driver Manuello(Johnny Hector)and his two cousins. Detective Simon Pacheco(Kevin Wiggins)hopes Roland will allow him to do his job and finally put away Cross for good..it's all the dead bodies Roland leaves around that bothers Cross.While not exactly the most original or imaginative storyline for an action film, there seemed to be more budget for THE KEEPER in that we get plenty of blood shed, shootouts, and an entertaining car chase with plenty of gunfire involved. And, Seagal does have two instances where he engages in hand-to-hand fisticuffs with Cross' men, not to mention he shoots a hell of a lot of people..plenty of squibs put to good use in THE KEEPER. While I'm not sure if the opening twenty or so minutes was really needed(seems like a slight rehash of HARD TO KILL), with a wasted Trine Christensen as Roland's confident, Regina, there to provide comfort and support after his being injured by his SWAT partner, THE KEEPER does show Seagal in a different kind of role, as a security bodyguard, albeit with special training in combat techniques. Carstens is a knockout as the daughter Roland must protect. Arron Shiver is the slimy boxer, Mason, boyfriend to Nikita, and actually working for Cross behind trainer Conner's back. It's too bad Roland couldn't kick Mason's ass at the end for his betrayal of Conner.
Were you expecting Casablanca? I have read people saying it's preposterous to compare this movie to Man on Fire, but since the plot lines are very similar... bodyguard getting his charge back from kidnappers... I don't think it's too far of a stretch. If anyone is looking for a movie to watch that does not require a lot of thought and you are willing to suspend reality for a couple of hours, this movie is for you... if you are looking for the next The Godfather or Schindler's List... this movie is not what you are looking for. I think some people take themselves WAY too seriously on here... Just for the record, Seagal may be getting on in years, but his movies are still fun and entertaining.
