Half Past Dead (2002) Reviews

Those other two who reviewed it are stupid this movie is non stop action packed. This is one of my favorite Seagal movies ever. Even though he is old he still has it. Don't listen two the other two idiots run to the store and rent it.

would have been a good movie if Steven Seagal wasn't in it. pretty good acting (besides Steven Seagal), pretty cool special effects, nice action, Ja Rule did well, the movie was cool to watch but everytime Steven Seagal came on it just made me laugh.

I would like to comment on the title. What does it mean? Was it a reference to the time when Sasha almost died, or is it a reference to the lack of caring about life from Ja-Rule and the inmates (remember his line, “Tonight is a good time to die”). I don’t know. This led me to the ultimate conclusion about this film. The director just didn’t care. He was happy to have Seagal and Ja-Rule signed on, so everything else became second fiddle. In the range of action films, this is pretty poor. Unrealistic fighting with an overabundance of cliched lines only plummeted this film deeper into the world of action. This film is the perfect example of a movie made just to get rap artists some screen time and attempt to bring an overweight action start from the 80s into the new generation. Sadly, in Half Past Dead it didn’t work.
