Sometimes it's just nice to sit back & enjoy watching Seagal take out all the evil trash out there!!!
Steven Seagal is indeed "A Dangerous Man" here & what I've noticed about most of his direct to dvd films is that they actually portray what's really going on out there in the dark world,
His films have a realistic gritty realism to them, i actually think his direct to dvd movies now are the equivalent of the types of violent,seedy & dark films of the Grindhouse days!!!
Seagal's films are drenched in the gritty & grim real world darkness & deals such as Criminals, Gangs, Thugs, Mobsters, Gypsy Gangs, seedy strip clubs, serial killers, Corrupt Cops & just about all types of real life scum!!!
It's a real shame though that Seagal himself is more like the villains in his films in real life & he's nothing like his hero roles!!!
That being said I genuinely enjoy watching Seagal doing what we can't do, taking the law into his own hands & exterminating those that deserve it.
"A Dangerous Man" is one of Seagal's darkest films & one of his best straight to dvd films!!!
Like the great old school action legend "Charles Bronson" in his later years during the 80's when he was churning out lots of straight to video violent action Thriller's, he was still enjoyable to watch & now "Seagal" is doing the same with his many direct to dvd violent action films, there's definitely parallels between the two action legends during the later part of their careers but also like "Bronson" there's something satisfying & enjoyable about seeing an ageing old school action hero still out there "taking out the trash" it's just fun & that's why these guys still have a huge Cult following.
I genuinely really like "Seagal" films & even some of the one's that are hated on i often like, IT'S all comes down to what you like & what is just an easy watching experience as we don't always want a big two hr blockbuster or atleast i don't!!! That's why so many love buying these direct to dvd films, because they promise good & violent action & a familiar face on the cover, these films are basically like the cheap,sleazy & violent films of the "Grindhouse" era or the beginnings of the vhs era, these cheap low budget films can be crazy,creative,gross, sleazy & violent as hell because they will never see the inside of a cinema!!!
I love the B-movie universe, there's alot of great underrated & Awesome films to be discovered.
Most old school action stars have turned to that cheap dvd market & it's still cool to see an old school action star older on the cover holding a gun with an explosion behind them!!!
It's all that old school grindhouse marketing but in the digital dvd era.
I actually enjoy Steven seagal's films the most out of the familiar action stars as to me he's like another "Charles Bronson" but of the gritty violent sleazy direct to dvd market.
Now I'm not dissing "Seagal" for putting out cheap low budget direct to dvd films as nearly all the aging old school action stars are doing it, including Wesley Snipes & Bruce Willis & Van Damme & Dolph Lundgren & even Stallone so it's fine, it's just not all the films will be made well & be good quality but i will say this about the master "Seagal" is that I've enjoyed his direct to dvd films more than the other guys!!! Now each action star has had their "Gems" of the low-budget category but "Seagal" has made the most that are enjoyable & entertaining & one's that are nice to just kick back & watch.
"A Dangerous Man" is a very dark & moody action Thriller, it's very violent & gritty & Steven Seagal is actually good in his role of an extremely deadly & "Dangerous Man" as he plays Shane Daniels a ex-con who is released from prison after six years for a crime he didn't commit, he gets mixed up with brutal gangsters & evil corrupted Cops & it's a tough,violent action Thriller that's got a real dark, gloomy Atmosphere. A DECENT one of Seagal's many DTV action films & one that's easy & action packed fun.
