Phonearl Good start, but then it gets ruined

Beystiman It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

ChicDragon It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.

Married Baby Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?

sonichund First of all. We ALL know Seagal is putting out movies like there is a movie store atm behind him. But still, if you give this movie a shot, and think about it, its actually not that bad! Seagal is looking good for his age, he had his special "Seagal" charm and attitude. Staying all calm. Bjt this movie delivers some fun jokes and lines from time to time. His cameo, an old cop does a great job as supporting actor. The main villain, oh man he is PERFECT for the role! He doesnt over act in any way, he had his special character going, the settings are all bright and nice, making you wanna be there. The movie does capture the beauty of Paris. The special effects are NOT bad as for in example "Code of Honor". No computer animated crap, real explosions, great blood effects and also the way the movie is shot gombined with the music, makes it work fine. The female lead is OK. She aint bad, but she aint particulary good actress either. But she works as a sneaky damn character ripping people off. The thing that made me want to see more and actually get interested, was the scene where rhe main bad guy suddenly slit a guys throat like a complete psychopath. I didnt really expect it so it caught me off guard. Good entrance for him! Also i loved the ending scene, especially the knife fight. I mean COME ON! We just got a flashback to the good old knifewielding scene of Under Siege 1 when Casey Ryback met Tommy Lee Jones in a knife fight. THANKS! The movie overall could have had more tempo and aldo the last scene where all characters were presented with the actors names, if I was in charge I would freeze the pictures on the characters, making it a "drawing" and place the name besides it. It would look better, be odd and add a more "special touch" to the whole movie experience. Mr Seagal, good job overall! I liked it and it didnt dissapoint me as perhaps Code Of Honor and Flight Of Fury and others did. I give it a 7/10. / Sonichund

Leofwine_draca END OF A GUN is another cookie cutter DTV thriller for ageing action star Steven Seagal, doubled in his fight scenes and with his orange-tinted glasses and dyed black goatee beard glued to his face as usual. This one teams the star with his go-to director Keoni Waxman for a cheaper-than-ever story that begins with Seagal rescuing a beautiful young woman from the clutches of an abuser and ends with the usual shoot-out in a warehouse. In between you get the typical abruptly-edited fight scenes, unbelievable flirting and romance between Seagal and his 20 year old beautiful love interest, and stock bad guys.

fossicle Actually I would give this a 5.5.Obviously one needs to separate his older movies to screen vs direct to media as is his MO for some years.This particular movie, has some good comments and insights from the main character which raises the rating. It is not over indulgent in violence, and has minimal sex. It is just plain entertaining.If you just want to enjoy a movie and relax without being hyper-critical, End of a Gun is a good movie to watch.I sure wish he would lose some weight and get a better hairpiece. It appears he and Travolta go to the same wig shop.

namashi_1 There was a time when Steven Seagal could set the box-office on fire & leave the action-movie fans to ripples. I was & still remain a fan of this man, despite his career having declined & his appearances strictly seen on direct-to-DVD films. And 'End of a Gun', his 5th film in this busy year, is a mediocre film, that doesn't even improve as it progresses. Its got a fairly decent plot, but it makes almost nothing out of it.'End of a Gun' Synopsis: A former federal agent crosses paths with a drug kingpin's enforcer after he saves a woman from danger.Keoni Waxman's Writing & Direction disappoints. Waxman has made many movies with Seagal, but this time he stumbles. Of the cast, Seagal delivers adequately. Jade Ewen looks hot & performs ordinarily. But its Ovidiu Niculescu, who's splendid as Seagal's old friend & is easily the best thing about the film.On the whole, 'End of a Gun' is a missed opportunity.
