Eye Candy 301 - "Driven to Kill" (SEAGAL! #4)
Driven to Kill: Would have preferred the original title, “Ruslan”, the name of Steven Seagal’s character in his latest direct-to-DVD offering. Seagal is a retired Russian mobster who now writes crime thrillers under a pseudonym. During the preparations for his daughter’s wedding, unknown parties murder his ex-wife and grievously injure his daughter, and it’s up to Ruslan to get himself a heaping helping of revenge, with his former son-in-law to be in tow. Seagal’s Russian accent is fleeting like the wind, and his hair looks like he dumped a can of the shake-on variety on his head. Violent as you would expect, but better than the Seagal average (so instead of a 1 star movie, you get a 2 star movie). Watchable, predictable, but not memorable, with too many jump cuts during the fight scenes that it's nausea-inducing. Woodchuck sez, “Better than what you’re expecting, but not good by any means.”
