Summary: Seagal Seems To Know No Better.
Review: Out For Justice Steven Seagal's fourth film is pretty much the
same type of carnage which we previsley seen in his last three
films. Breaking Bones using everything from a meat cleaver, pool
balls tightly wound in a sock, to a saw-offed shotgun. The Viloence is high and much more brtual than in "Marked For Death"
Story plays like this Seagal plays a streetwise tough Italian
Cop named Gino, who goes on a one man rampage agaisnt a childhood Nemesis Named Ritchie played by William Forsythe who
made this role every bit as mean and psychotic as it supposed to be. who killed his partner and best friend in Broad Daylight.
Now Gino has become a terrible cop stealing evidence, destroying
establishments, beating the hell out of anyone who gets in his
way of nabbing his quarry when in the end the cop is no better
than the hood he's pursuing. One good thing i say about this film is even though it's terrible it somhow has the uncanny ability to hold the viewer's attention until the climax which is bloody but entertaining.

Summary: Ouch!
Review: Out for justice? Fine by me. Just as long as he's not in for justice anywhere near my gaff. This really is an astonishing film. For starters, I've never seen so many broken noses in one film. It is so fetishised that I can only come to the conclusion that it's a traditional greeting in NYC. "Hello, I'd like to book a room, please" - *THUD* "aaaagh! I'd like to arrange an early call, too." Mr Seagal conspicuously lacks a flattened proboscis presumably due to his height. It could also be due to his enemies inability to get within a foot of him due to a prior engagement with the Grim Reaper. The bad guys encounters with Mr Seagal follow a familiar pattern. "You are a man who has sexual relations with your own mother" - *Crash* broken nose. "You are a man who has sexual relations with your own mother" - *Slam* meat cleaver through hand. "You are a man who has sexual relations with your own mother" - *Tingle* head first through window. So painful was this to watch, not to mention repetitive, that I found myself shouting alternatives to the poor chaps. Why not try "You are a man who is rumoured to be having sexual relations with your own mother but it may prove to be apocryphal." It may have the desired effect but I remain doubtful. Mr Seagal has a urinating dog as back up.

Summary: ANYBODY SEEN RICHIE?
Review: Pound for pound, Steven Seagal's best work on film. The scene in the bar in which Gino (Seagal) takes on a crafty, poised fighter in "Sticks" is most memorable. Seagal inquires to a raucous, energetic bar crowd as to whether anyone has taken sight of Richie, and wonders aloud why Richie ended the life of local legend Bobby Lupo. William Forsythe is more disturbing in this film than Jaime Gumb in "Silence of the Lambs."

Summary: Seagal does an accent! Good stuff...
Review: Seagal plays Gino, a cop born in the hood of Brooklyn (he does the accent and all) and respected by everyone (isn't Seagal always?). what's great is that this is more of a mob movie than a Seagal action flick but it's done Seagal style for better or worse. Not aterrible movie but not great either. I liked it better on TV last night than I id when I saw it at the theatres when it originally came out. Several supporting performances make it wortha watch such as William Forsythe (CON AIR; CITY BY THE SEA), Gina Gershon (FACE/OFF; SHOWGIRLS), Jerry Orbach, and Julianna Marguiles (THE NEWTON BOYS; GHOST SHIP).

Summary: Akido woops up again, and again!! Ay yo **** nuts.
Review: Segaul and his Akido has once again open some cans of woop-***. Easily one of the 5 best 'quotable movies' of all time.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Steven Seagal- Badass and beyond.
Review: Steven Seagal plays the ultimate badass Gino in Out For Justice. But there is more to it than just that. The story isn't the best ever and while Seagal's acting improves nicely, he still isn't the best actor. Besides that, Seagal plays a great character that can also show his acting ability(slightly)while still being a bad-ass. I liked this story so well because it was more than just a one-dimensional action movie. It is multi-dimensional with the mob ties racing Gino to find Ritchie who killed his best friend, Bobby for no appearant reason. As the movie progresses though Gino finds new information everywhere while he still kicks ass. The detective story, the relationship and respect between all the characters who all grew up together in Brooklyn, the relationship between Gino and his wife, and the way everything ties together makes this a fantastic movie besides the fact that Seagal does his best choreograped aikido scenes.They are done with so much realism and still amazes audiences. Definitely one of Steven Seagal's best films!!

Summary: Steven Seagal...
Review: Steven Seagal plays the ultimate [fighter] Gino in Out For Justice. But there is more to it than just that. The story isn't the best ever and while Seagal's acting improves nicely, he still isn't the best actor. Besides that, Seagal plays a great character that can also show his acting ability(slightly)while still being a [great fighter]. I liked this story so well because it was more than just a one-dimensional action movie. It is multi-dimensional with the mob ties racing Gino to find Ritchie who killed his best friend, Bobby for no appearant reason. As the movie progresses though Gino finds new information everywhere while he still kicks [butt]. The detective story, the relationship and respect between all the characters who all grew up together in Brooklyn, the relationship between Gino and his wife, and the way everything ties together makes this a fantastic movie besides the fact that Seagal does his best choreograped aikido scenes.They are done with so much realism and still amazes audiences. Definitely one of Steven Seagal's best films!!

Summary: Don't Stand in His Way!
Review: The children have grown up in the neighborhood and one went crazy. That basically sums up the whole premise of Steven Seagal's "Out for Justice". Gino Felino is on the search for the big, fat Richie who offed his partner. Gino goes into bars, clubs, etc. He causes trouble and breaks some teeth. Crackling! Richie wasn't there at the bar and Gino said, "he's not here, you know why he's not here?" Then Richie's brother asked, "why?" and Gino's response is the best line in movie history. "Because he's a CSFPA, ya know!" Yes! Don't touch cue balls anymore, don't drive fast on hills, and don't drink. That was a solid message that I got after watching this movie. Innocent bystanders should always watch themselves too.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Most Quotable Movie of ALL TIME!!!
Review: The Portrayal of Steven Seagal as Law enforcement officer, Gino Felino is nothing short of Brilliant. I do not believe anyone could have played the part better. Steven Seagal plays the Brooklyn accent perfectly and to top it all off this movie takes place in the neighborhood I call home. I really enjoyed this movie and I recommend it to everyone that I see as the MOST QUOTABLE MOVIE OF ALL TIME. I particularly like the bar fight in which Gino Felino proceeds to knock Tatoo's Teeth out.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Seagal is Good; Forsythe is Better
Review: This is a movie where Seagal is actually upstaged. In his role as Gino Felino, a man from "the hood" who is also a cop, Seagal goes after Richie Madano (WIlliam Forsythe) a crack head who killed Seagal's partner. But in this movie Seagal is a cop who doesn't play by anybody's rules but his own. His marriage is on the rocks, he's a maverick but even in that the cops allow him to take a shotgun and a car to search out Richie. Forsythe is so talented. I've seen about eight of his movies and he shows his acting ability in every single one of them. This time he's a crackhead and he does that very convincingly. He is able to harass and shoot up an entire neighborhood as Felino just misses catching up with him several times. Seagal is at his intimidating best, walking into a pool hall, "Has anybuddy in here seen Richie? Does anybuddy know why somebody would wanna kill Bobby Lupo? I ain't gonna leave until somebuddy tells me who killed Bobby Lupo!" The fight scene at movie's end, between Forsythe and Seagal is well -choreographed and very brutal. Seagal fans: this flick is a must.
