    "Game of Death" is a 2010 direct-to-DVD actioner that stars Wesley Snipes and no, it has nothing to do with the Bruce Lee film of the same name. Some of you might be wondering why Snipes is in a direct-to-DVD movie and I would be happy to explain. Not only was "Blade 3" met with indifference by its audience, Wesley Snipes was so disgusted by the experience that he actually CHOSE to make direct-to-DVD films. He reasoned that he would have more creative control over his projects. This is sort of baffling because his movies since then have been consistently mediocre. Maybe Wesley should've fought a little harder on the big screen because "Game of Death" is what we expect when we think of direct-to-DVD actioner: Sucky.
  2. “Out for Justice (1991)” review

    If you're even vaguely familiar with my reviews, you should know about my love-hate relationship with Steven Seagal, the man with iron double chins. When you think about it though, even his older movies weren't so hot. “Above the Law” and “Marked for Death” were full of unnecessary subplots and “Hard to Kill” (based on what I remember) had some awkward tone issues as well as uneven pacing. Yet since Steven Seagal himself was so cool, he redeemed these films until his coolness began to drown in an ocean of blubber. "Out for Justice" isn't any better than those films, technically, yet it also one of my favorite Seagal movies.
