Pistol Whipped (2008)

I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

Touches You

Crappy film

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

steven seagal is back in top form in this action thriller about an ex cop who is recruited by a big time gangster to be his personal hit-man, seagal's movies have since 2003 been absolute garbage really, and im happy to say that pistol whipped is the best steven seagal movie since fire down below, he kicks ass brutally and has some of the best shoot outs I've seen in an action movie for a long time, there are no stunt doubles this time, no stupid voice doubles just a classic badaas seagal bieng a badass, seagal's role here gives him more to do as well as he plays a quite bad character who wants to be a good farther and he pulls these scenes off well if at times a little awkwardly, but hey this is a steven seagal movie and it delivers some top bone crunching violence, definitely recommended

I didn't expect to see Casey Ryback, but I wasn't disappointed either. Steven Seagal seems to be doing better than his last direct-to-video efforts.He's an ex-cop with an alcohol and gambling problem, and is also neglectful of his daughter. He has a chance to get his life back together.His quest for the bad guys leads him to a place where he didn't expect.The action is hot and heavy with car chases and a final cemetery scene that ends in a blaze!Seagal is back!

Whatever you do, do not waste a single minute of your life on this one. Why a great actor like Lance Henriksen is in this I will never understand. Oh yeah, the money. But is this the best money Lance can make? There has to be a vehicle with a tiny bit of class that would pay Lance the same amount. Shameful. Absolutely shameful. Segal looks like a beached whale. His range is non-existent. Has he ever taken an acting class? Segal should kick my ass for watching this turkey. What a waste of precious time on this earth. I will never get it back. I am scrubbing my eyes with an alcohol dipped toothbrush but no matter how hard I scrub it just doesn't take away my shame.

In the past ten-plus years, Steven Seagal has been making Shake and Bake flicks, in other words low budget movies that go directly to VHS, or DVD, and this one is no exception. After watching the horrendous "Attack Force" I promise I wouldn't see another movie with Steven Seagal on the cover. Well after almost an hour at the video rental and not being able to find anything to see, I just had to rent something. So after hesitating for ten minutes, I decided to give Seagal another chance. On my way home I was kind of prejudice about the Pistol Whipped, I mean come on, just read the title "Pistol Whipped" it sound like a bad action/porn movie. Well after watching at least the first ten minutes, the movie became quite interesting.Pistol Whipped tells the story of Matt (Steven Seagal) an ex-cop who was released from the force after being suspected of stealing evidence money, which obviously he didn't steal. Succumbed in depression, Matt loses his job and family and spends most of his time drinking and gambling which leaves him with the astonishing dept of over a million dollars. Yes, a million dollars, and somehow he still drives a brand new SUV. One night after losing in a poker game he comes across Blue (Paul Calderon), a mysterious man who works for a man only known as the Old Man (Lance Henriksen). The Old Man buys Matt's debt so he can do his dirty work. This brings Matt to uncover the secret regarding who really rob the evidence money from which he was accused.The movie has a pretty decent plot and good action. One thing, this is a Steven Seagal movie, so don't expect award winning performances. The movie was really good and quite enjoyable. I would recommend Seagal to spend less time in the "All you can eat buffets" and spend more time on the treadmill.I wouldn't recommend this as a must buy, but I would definitely recommend as a must rent.
