Fire Down Below (1997) has to be one of the worse of Seagal's major released films. before he re-invented himself for video. Seagal still tries to do some of his old moves and method of acting. But his "Billy Jack" style of performing has worn so thin that you can't even see the threads anymore. He stars as another variation of his screen character. This time he's in the south looking for a sleazy modern day robber baron (Kris Kristofersen). A lot of illegal dumping and poisoning the environment, blah, blah, blah. Will Steven Seagal take out the trash and defend the soil? Watch (if you dare) FIRE DOWN BELOW.
More hot air and empty preaching from Mr. Seagal. He can't even do his cool moves anymore. A lot of trick photography and digital editing is used in this movie. Why doesn't the director and Mr. Seagal just adapt a new style that's more suited for a man of his age and build. This would be one of his last major studio appearances. After realizing his limitations, he would finally change to a more subtle type of action film making. This one is real bad and I could'nt stand up to another viewing.
Not recommended at all.
