Movie Reviews of On Deadly Ground
Movie Review: He's the kind of guy that would drink a gallon of gasoline just to piss on your campfire
Summary: 5 Stars
This evening's feature On Deadly Ground has been on the old boy Sid's list for quite sometime now, and just happens to be one of Santa's late night favorites. It's the powerhouse that began the downward spiral of Seagal's career placing him the the elite direct to dvd category which ultimately leads to the Wal-Mart $5 bin. He's still somewhat slender and sports the full out ponytail but shows glimmers of the Seagal we know and love today. Yeah the Seagal that swears he's black, can barely pull off his lines, and can be found with traces of Egg McMuffin on him at anytime.
We start off with environmental agent Forrest Taft(Seagal) who works for Aegis Oil Company in Alaska. Taft is their main man and treated like royalty among the other greased up oil workers. The company CEO Michael Jennings plays the good guy in his commercials but is really bad news behind closed doors. He's finishing up a state of the art rig but hits a snag when he only has 13 days to complete the job or the land goes back to the eskimos and the Alaskan government. One of Seagal's old friends Hugh Palmer,who looks like a b version of Lee Marvin, has a disk with proof of defective equipment that would set the rig back way beyond the deadline. This info becomes evident to Jennings and he sends his goons to take him out. Once they wack Palmer Seagal springs into action and decides to take down the Aegis corporation one broken neck at a time. With the help of his newly found Eskimo friends there is no stopping the wrath of Taft. The following 60 minutes is non stop beat downs and explosions Steven Seagal style.
This one really had it all including a star studded cast consisting of Michael Caine, John C. McGinley, and Billy Bob Thorton. It was just hilarious. We kept looking at each other saying "is that guy really in this movie right now?" Since this flick brought us so much enjoyment there is no other way to close it out besides the Joe Bob Drive In totals:
1 Apache stunt double
1 Amazing review title from an actual quote in the movie
1 Crazy dream where Seagal takes downs a 850lb Grizzly bear with a pocket knife
1 George Harrison look a like
15 insane explosions (1 being a great chopper explosion)
2 Alaskan Eskimo jackets worn by Seagal
1385 tassles found on those jackets
4 serious attempts at "saving the environment" speeches by Seagal, which fail miserably
3 guys set on fire
and 1 fantastic 5 star b from the human panda bear Steven Seagal
