When Steven Seagal has Alzheimer’s and is living in an old folks home, he going to walk around the hallways yelling “Anybody seen Richie?!?!”.
“Who’s hotdog is this???”
I can't help but love this one. The bar scene is straight up classic.
its a stone cold classic this
"I seen the top of her head" 🤣
@@JamesWho1Anyone seen Richie
It goes downhill really fast after this one...
Yeah that entire bar scene is the best thing ever.
Hey I get it, Seagal is a great target for jokes. But let's be honest here, anyone who grew up in the 90's knows how awesome those movies were. Hard to Kill, Out for Justice, Marked for Death and Above the Law were all bangers that we watched over and over again. Of course Bruce Lee and Chuck Norris will always be the kings of this genre, but at my table there's always room for Mr. Seagal.
Same here and well said.
Too many people are sheep and just jumping on the bandwagon of making fun of him now. His movies had great choreography. The fight scene at the bar was awesome. On the other hand no one is making fun of Bloodsport and the acting and choreography in that is amateurish. They didn’t even have basic physics down. One scene JCVD kicks a guy and goes the opposite direction of the kick. Never saw a mistake like that in a Segal movie.
Agreed. Check out Joe Rogen's segment about him, he's actually a real martial artist trained in Japan in Aikido. @@strafer8764
Space Ice disagrees.
@@garthhancock3373Space Ice rules!
Fun fact, Full size American sedans and wagons from the 80's (including the Lincoln Town Car) still had full length bench seats in the front to accommodate three. The shifter was mounted on the steering column.
The way Seagal struts into the deli before that big fight is one of the best moments in cinema history.
The waddle
always weird to see seagal movies from a time before he needed a body double for as much as depicting him walking some stairs
He needs a body double just for some of his lines 😅
@@devwking5no he doesn't 😂 he speaks fine even though his body has become worn from years of relentless combat 😢
When he walks up stairs, it’s the stairs that need the stunt double!
@@whatwouldwesleycook9759 bro really? He'd native dance circles around you 😆
those first few movies were kinda legit.
Seagal's golden age of movies, man...those were the good old days.
A lot of 80s & 90s cars had bench seating in the front including the Lincoln Towncar, the rear facing 3rd row seat in a Taurus wagon was my personal favorite from that era
Yeah even smaller Buicks had the bench front seat
This film is actually a fairly decent action movie....it has some fun dialogue, the action sequences are pretty good, it keeps a good pace, it has William Forsyth...
The big problem is that there’s no stakes. As they say at the beginning, Richie knows he’s going to die so he’s just dicking around until Gino catches up to him and kills him. Other than occasionally killing randoms and trying to get Gino before Gino gets him, he doesn’t DO anything with his last night of life. There’s a lot of shoe leather of people trying to find Richie....and Gino is never really presented as being in danger. He experiences no setbacks, no point where he gets beaten down and has to come back from it. Even when he gets shot near the end, it’s just a minor inconvenience.
And that’s the same problem as ALL his early movie....he was so fixated on his character being a badass that there’s never a point where it seems like he could lose.
the added filler montages too. as far as steven being invincible, that was his gimmick and i dug it. after Segal shit his pants in this, extremally cocky attitude during under siege and his ego....his gimmick got old and so did his films. william forsyth is the shit!!!! i like him and clancy brown. very underrated.
It’s one of the best martial arts movies
Nah, the purpose of this film was similar to The Dark Knight -- Seagal was an immovable object and Forsythe was an unstoppable force. The whole point was that you wanted to see two fearless guys finally duke it out at the end. This is one of the rare times where Steven coming across as invincible made sense because the entire build-up for the movie was to finally see these two throwdown and for someone who wasn't afraid of Richie to finally give him his comeuppance. In that regard, I think this film worked perfectly for that premise.
As for his other earlier films -- Seagal definitely had his toughest time in Marked for Death and Above The Law, the two films where he arguably took the most damage from the villains (also Hard to Kill, but only during the first half, then he becomes invincible during the second half). I thought Seagal films were great for their gritty, grounded, street-level stories.
These days we rarely get these kind of films -- they're usually thrillers or poor imitations of Taken/John Wick. But what made Seagal's earlier works so good was because they had a lot of street-level believability to them and the fight scenes were wicked brutal.
@@Billy-bc8pk It’s interesting you mention Above The Law, because that’s the one that got me thinking about this issue. In that movie, he gets tied to a chair and tortured, including pain inducing injections....yet it makes to difference to the final showdown. He’s captured, tortured, breaks free and kills all the baddies with no actual difficulty or impairment to his abilities. It’s like the similar scene in True Lies, except THAT was played for laughs. This wasn’t. The damage done to Seagal doesn’t matter because it doesn’t pose any setback beyond a few minutes of watching Henry De Silva having to speak some really stupid dialogue.
It’s the John Wayne Problem. JW would often get shot “in the shoulder” to show that he wasn’t invincible, but it ultimately wouldn’t matter. It simply emphasises his effective invulnerability, because the damage inflicted is narratively superficial, and actually becomes the opposite of dramatic stakes. Instead of showing him to be human, that he can suffer and be hurt, it instead highlights that, from the perspective of the story, he actually can’t. Seagal never learned that lesson and in Out For Justice, he literally takes a bullet in the shoulder right before the final fight with Richie...and it makes no difference to anything...and after all his previous brutality, Richie spends a few minutes being thrown around a kitchen before being killed. There’s never a point during that fight where it looks like Richie might even be a threat to Gino.
Contrast that to “Nobody”, a recent movie that seemed like just another in the “Ex CIA comes out of retirement when pushed too far” trope....when the protagonist in THAT finally admits its time to stop pretending to be a meek Everyman, and stands up to the thugs on the bus...that fight is BRUTAL, he’s a MESS, it gets painful to watch because while he Farages Them Up good and proper, the reality of him being outnumbered by younger guys means they get their hits in and he suffers for it.
For me this was when Steven Seagal peaked, that looking back at his earlier work the characters had now become interchangeable and his limited wardrobe for black clothes only made it worse.
I appreciate your ability to turn Seagal into a career
To be fair the stick fight is from Kali, FMA or Filipino Martial Arts, it's a sword, blade, stick system. The individual he's fighting is Dan Inosanto, one of Bruce Lee's students & his best friend.
I know that "hoagie" thing at the beginning of the video was a joke but as a New Yorker, it still hurts every time I hear anyone who's supposed to be from the city call a "Hero" a Sub or Hoagie in movies haha
This movie was shot in my neighborhood. I was about 6 years old and I remember my Dad (who was a huge Seagal fan even years after he was demoted to DTV features) being all excited that they were shooting a Seagal movie nearby.
5:42
That's Master Dan Inosanto.
The man who introduced Bruce Lee to the nunchucks! At 87, he's still doing seminars, just saw him at one in Tulsa last weekend. The man still has it
Think how much Steven's life may have been impacted for the positive, had they allowed him to have that puppy to care for and nurture. This was the turning point, my friends. He's just broken hearted.
I honestly laughed when they said that the producers were worried about the dog's safety...looking at how Segal treated stuntmen in the past, I don't blame them.
and that's why they call him puppy love!
That pool cue fight 😂 ah legendary. Forever etched in my brain from the first time I saw it as a kid and laughed
Best fight scene ever.
It's like a slap fight...with pool cues. xD
get him sticks
It's been ages since I saw this, why is Seagal on his knees for that fight?
Notice the switches between two sticks and one?
I miss when Seagal was skinny and still had the potential to be a legitimate action star.
He was never physically impressive though even in his early movies. Sly, Arnold, JCVD, Lundgren or even Willis and Swayze were just more imposing. I have to say that the first Under Siege is a great movie, but that is despite Seagal, not because of him.
@@lucas82 He is very tall, has a mean face and was fast. Was...
YOU GOT ME! That thumbnail really had me think Steagull was a ripped dude at some blank period i was unaware of, and a couple minutes in i see the Steagull i remember!
Lol I've been having fun with photoshop lately.
Frfr, William Forsyth was amazing as Richie. He was menacing and unpredictable throughout. Definitely the best part of this movie!
You’re having such a good time with this which is making me have a good time with this 😂
I used to laugh watching this, the part at the start he’s at the trunk of his car with the beret on and the guy says to him “get him” Seagal mumbles “I do what I do.” And the other part is when the bad guys are driving around and they are talking about the rat one of them has in his apartment and one says “You gotta shoot dat rat bastad.” Still gets me 😆
I like that Sensei Seagal can kill like 103 people and never face a police IA report... or saction from the chief!?!
He did in Above The Law... sort of. Also in Glimmer Man.
This film is a guilty pleasure for sure! Seen it numerous times! The tone can be all over the place. Along with the accents! The dude getting his leg blown off is one of my favorite moments. I also enjoy the weird Frank Capra moment where he is reminiscing with his mob buddy and the music swells lol.
Guilty pleasures don’t exist. There’s nothing wrong with any kind of pleasure as long as you’re not hurting anybody else. Like what you like and don’t be ashamed about it.
@@Im.David.Robert Thank you! I get a big kick out of this movie! Like when he kicks the life out of the guy!
DAMN! That kick tho. Must have been the kick he taught the Anderson Silva.
The ford LTD had a bench front seat so you could seat 3 people relatively comfortably. My parents had one decades ago. It caught fire in a lowes parking lot one night.
Legend has it that up to this day, you can still hear Seagal screaming Richie's name on his sleep
Redeye Is A Funny Man 😂
That “big foot vibes” comment was the funniest thing on the internet this week. I couldn’t stop laughing while my wife shot me dirty looks.
Just watched this movie a few days ago so made the review even better 😂. That kick at the end had me dying of laughter then and during the review again. Great video as usual
A lot of people believe that bar scene where Seagal was asking if anyone seen Richie was filmed and planned in by the director. But little known fact is that Seagal came out of his trailer and was very angry that his dealer Richie left the set before he could make a full purchase. So he was walking around the set asking if anyone seen Richie and the crew was recording and used it for filming.
1:49 That's 18 Ave. and 86 St. in Bensonhurst, Brooklyn. This place is just yards away on 18 Ave. where Travolta was strutting at the beginning of the movie Saturday Night Fever. The F train takes a turn at this location (train station is behind that movie shot). That's also the same place where the famous train/car chase was in The French Connection.
Fun fact: Where Richie shoots that guy in this scene, there was a pastry shop (to the left of the camera shot). This was around 2006 or so. My friend run into Steven Seagal there at the entrance. He literally smashed his face into Steven's chest lol. From what I know, Steven's parents used to live in one of these houses on the way to Bay Ridge, so my wild guess is the pastry wasn't just for Steven (at least I hope) lol.
These videos are absolute gold.
YOU'RE absolute gold :) I'm glad you like them
This was a good one, back when his movies were still cool. It was a really good fight scene at the end and the acter playing Richie made a good villain.
It’s Friday night, the Kids are entertaining themselves, girlfriend is out, settling on the couch with a cup of tea for a Redeye Reviews catch up session.
I still can't believe I went to see The Glimmer Man in the cinemas
If I remember correctly, Sensei rocked his inner “Brooklyn” for a few years actually.
I’d argue long before he rocked his inner “Native American”, “Vladimir Puuuuuutin”, “Mongolian”, “African American” etc, etc….
The Italian Seagal was easily the best version.
Love the reviews, is it possible to put the movie audio into stereo and not the left ear. It’s super hard to use headphones, quite distracting.
I didn't know Lennie Briscoe from Law and Order was in this movie. Jerry Orbach makes this a classic.
Can't sleep. Work in a few hours... but at least I still have the new upload to watch... love you RedEye
Uncle Junior knew Steven wasn't going to be a varsity athlete later
imagine street fighter with steven seagal, one can only dream
As M bison lol
John Flynn, the director of this movie, also made my favorite Stallone movie, Lock Up.
@11:10 where he kicked the shit outta that guy against the wall so bad it killed the poor stunt guy😂I died laughing😂plus he said he wants to use that shit as a ringtone😂@redeyereviews,man perfect commentary sir👏🏻🤣love your work man!😎anybody seen Richie!!??😅
I can’t believe they never made the sequel ‘In For Justice’.
I don’t know how I was unsubbed from you, but I love this channel!
I would like to say, when I found your movie review redo of one of the classic Segal movies. I had to check it out. After that I sat through every video in your Karate Korner: Steven Seagal playlist: (97)
agreed good sir No Sleep To Brooklyn is just epic
Beastie Boys are legendary
That they are, i just wanted to say Thank You, your reviews have regularly put a smile on my face and i wanted to say sincerely Thank You @@RedEyeReviews
Large sedans used to have full front and back seats...like couches. You could sit in the middle of the front seat with the armrest folded back, if there was one.
The pool stoke drum fight switches between stevie having two sticks and one stick a few times
Not the exhale when he’s putting the dirty pictures in his jacket pocket 😂😂
Hahaha. You're killing me dude. When I have smoked a doobie, and see this shit, I end up on the floor rolling around.😂
Keep em coming.
Oh man, I’d love to see a full review of My Blue Heaven 😂
It's one of my all time favorite movies. :)
Still waiting on the RedEye reviews team up with Alex Lantz and Donnie the Penguin as well as Steven SaBoom Boom.
@@a.nonymouse Alex Lantz is excellent 👍...
gotta admit, Steven does a pretty good Will Sasso impression.
Literally his ONE good movie.
I mean dang....he had me and all us fooled when we were kids
BRO your vids make me laugh no matter how shitty the day was! 🤣
I'm very glad to hear that :)
I had the 87 mercury and it’s actually one long seat. Pretty awesome. My gf used to ride next to me in the middle with my friend on the other side.
Ok that's pretty awesome
Love the My Blue Heaven clips!
So good. 🤣 Hey Richie! I founded the guy!
Holy crap…was that a young Uncle Junior in that scene at the police station?!?!
Cadillacs came built with a continuous bench in front back in the day, instead of two front seats.
Ayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy, Anybody seen Ritchie?
This is the *_only_* way I can watch a Steven Seagal movie. Thanks.
Not the best for me but a Seagal classic I think. Red Eye Reviews is the best part 😂
11:10 sounded like a beat em up thug 😂
Sea-gull should hire Red Eye to be his stunt accent co-ordinator "hey Gino, I founded the guy" Awesome!
That beret, sleeveless shirt combo ... Sea-gull golden moments!
The biggest takeaway from this movie is that it's ok to leave a dog in a hot car.
NYers don’t say hoagies. We call them heroes. Hoagy is a Jersey thing.
All good though. Love the vid. Subscribed.
I do know that you New Yorkers LOVE being compared to New Jersey. It's practically the same place, right? ;)
How could you think the dog was not safe he was willing to pay a million that’s insane , I reckon it broke him
I like it a lot, a good hard boiled movie. With some shocking shots (litteraly), William Forsythe is excellent. I like the town, the progression of Seagal, the bar scene, the final fight. It's a good movie.
The Richie clip at the end reminds me of Mr Burns chuckling when he remembered running over that worker in his younger days
My favourite film of his is Steven Seagal vs Jamaica, otherwise known as Marked for Death. Do a shot every time he doesn't get hit.
Can we get some video evidence of you making the super-kick noises your ringtone?
Me and my friend memorized the bar scene. "muther#$%^er you knocked my teeth out"
How you say you were a former green beret without telling you were a green beret: wear a green beret with civillian clothes.
My favourite Russian mongel, Chinese, Hispanic, English, Irish, African, Italian-American actor.
While the newer Seagal movies are a joke, this movie slaps and was back when Seagal was actually a bad ass.
You know what.s funny that dude after being kicked sound like those aliens in the old doom game lol Im never going to unhear that lol and that Austin power thing made my week lol
You must be a youngin'! Riding in the middle back seat was not a mistake. A Lincoln Town car of that era with the standard bench seat would have not only had a shifter ON THE STEERING COLUMN, but probably a LAP SEAT BELT in the middle. Why? Because when front seats were pretty much designed like sofas, it TOTALLY made sense to have three people sitting shoulder to shoulder.
This is my favorite movie to laugh at, but i NEVER can remember the name. I always get it confused with his other 3 word titles 😂
Idk how i manage to do that
That thumbnail though.....Seagal was never half as jacked as that lol
Effn hilarious vid. RICHIE😂
06:38 what are the chance of two guys in the same bar in Brooklyn knowing Filipino Kali
Not saying a whole lot, but this was his best movie. It’s definitely the most watchable
I think Above The Law and Marked for Death were better
great voice over
the bar scene where he fights with the poolque :D :D it got broken and then he fights with 2 in his hands, but after 1 second he has the same poolque and now its not broken , then after 1 second again he is back with 2 in his hands. from 6:32 to 6:42 :D :D so funny
Arguably his best film
The early 90s were a weird time for cop films. Anyone watching them is going to have to conclude that every American cop wears anything they want to work and just constantly beat people up with martial arts (when they aren’t shooting every bullet ever made from their pistols).
Seagal noticed that lifting donuts was easier then lifting weights little did he know he grew in the wrong directions, and as Pinocchio lying in his case doubles his waist size.
What happened to Seagal? Cookies, that's what!
I like him now even more than back then! Steven Seagal for President!
Bo matter what's coming in the future Out for Justice will still be my favorite christmas movie ^^
Yes, Christmas!
That 11:24 ish part is absolutely where topper harley lerned his finisher 💪💪
What a way to spend the time before work ;)
I don't care what anyone says, Segal movies from the 90s where awesome, Undersiege was my all time favorite.
2:29 I know what my next year's Halloween costume will be.
Remember when The seagull had a BMI under 25?
Ever such a long time ago
Former hotdogger here... You're correct Red Eye. I got a hold of a filthy hot dog when I was 7 and it took over my mind and body for 32 years. Everything was for the dog. I didn't care about anyone or anything. Only that succulent, floppy frankfurter. I lost my big wheel, my girlfriend stopped holding my hand and my Mom was beyond ashamed. It's not everyday your 7 year old becomes a hardcore hotdog junkie.
It only got worse from there. By the time I was 15 I was head first into the underground sausage racket. Smuggling in ultra high fat kielbasa from a small operator in south east Asia. I made a killing during Madi Gras selling it genuine andouille 😂
In my 20s I was living large. High on the hog. I owned a fleet of Oscar Meyer Weinermobiles and had a whole crew slinging my salty sausages to everyone.
Johnsonville started to take notice of my empire around 2015 and let me know in not-so-many words that I had better start stopping sling sausage soon... Or I'd be taken to the grinder FOREVER! So I stepped down and divided up my empire among my meaty mates and retired somewhere south of northwest.
For the last few years I've been attending MITFA (meat in tube form anonymous) and it's helped. I have only fractions of what I used to and scrape by working as a consultant for people looking to start their very own ant farm. It's a simple life, but it's mine.
you know, i saw Richie. but i won't say anything unless someone pushes me around first.
New Yorkers don't say "Hoagie". That's a Chicago thing. We have "Wedges".
LOL @ the ringtone idea.
Chuck Norris is making another movie called Agent Recon. That should be a future episode for you.
Y'all don't call em subs? In Jersey we do (North). They do call em hoagies in South Jersey too tho.
@@aikidoboynj When I was growing up in the 70s we always called them wedges. But things change. People invent new words all the time. When I moved to Connecticut I found out that they call them grinders.
