I’ll tolerate a lot for some mindless entertainment… so when Out for a Kill was on USA network last night I had MCE record it. It only took 10 minutes for me to write off this movie. What a piece of crap! You can’t spend the first 30 minutes of a Stephen Segal movie with no action… it’s just painful. Yes, after 10 minutes I decided the movie sucked and I waited an additional 20 minutes to see some action (guess what? the action sucked too).
My advice: do not see this movie. In fact, go out of your way to not see this movie. If a network broadcasts this movie, call up your cable/satellite provider and demand that network be removed from their lineup.
The only positive thing this movie did was remind me to post a notice to directors and aspiring directors: please, for the sake of all that is holy, stop using slow motion in an attempt to make your movie look cool. The money you spent by running your cameras faster would have been better spent on a script writer.

Bwaa haa haa! Steven Segal. :-)Funny post.
Okay now. How can I put this delicately? Steven Seagal is a washed up has been. Well, actually he was a (never was). NEXT! You wanna talk about an awesome movie? Kill Bill, now that’s an awesome flick. 🙂
