Actually quite nice. When it comes to action, this is definitely one of Steven Seagal's best. When it comes to the story, it's pretty average. The Glimmer Man is a pretty typical cop buddy movie. Some fun situations arise between the overly Buddhist Steven and his ghetto buddy Wayans. That crying at Casablanca was a lot of fun. Moments like that make the film nice and light, because you also have to make do with the Russian mafia, revenge stories and hidden pasts. Sounds exciting, but Steven's fixed recipe.

About 10/11 years ago I was a huge fan of Steven Seagal, I was also 16 years old at the time. I was curious to see what a revision would have left of the film so many years later.
Surprisingly, I still think this is one of the better ones in the Seagal series, I wasn't completely impressed with it as it used to be, but I still had a great time with it. A nice story, decent bad guys and plenty of action scenes.
The 4 stars I gave to this earlier I can't say anymore, but a 3 for sure.
