Seagals first film is actually a real good from the director of the fugitive and under siege
Ryan Cox

Seagal's debut film is action packed and exciting, showcasing his trademark fighting style with a storyline that connects to the Vietnam War

Another 1 of Seagal's great early thrillers, when he had real appeal!

One if Seagal's best...but that's not a high bar.

Seagal is a beast. His earlier stuff is the best.

Good Seagal actioner…you can see the birth of a great film career of director Andrew Davis as he crafts this action flick

Seagal's heights were action film's heavy cliché period.

Seagal’s debut movie sets up the formula for the rest of them. Paper thin plot, poor acting, and dubious martial arts skill.

Decent debut for Seagal. Not special for the genre, but if you like Seagal, it lays the groundwork for what we expect in his future movies.
