neutral · AI labelView post →I can't believe there's no GIF of Steven Seagal saying "This, I'm trained for" from UNDER SIEGE 2. I'd use that one a lot more than you'd expect. (Just to be clear, I've never seen the movie. I just remember that line from the trailer.)

neutral · AI labelView post →Under Siege 2. Under Siege is a fine movie where Seagal is by far the worst part. Under Siege 2 doesn't have Tommy Lee Jones, Gary Busey, or Colm Meaney, so Eric Bogosian has to carry the entire thing along with that guy that looks like Race Bannon, and he does well at that.
neutral · AI labelView post →It would be funny if someone was cast to not be in a film. Not cast in a cut role, or a cameo, or cast as a villain before they realised he played a villain in the last movie and could not come back (this happened to Gary Busey in Under Siege 2) just deliberately not there. And proudly NOT featuring
neutral · AI labelView post →Under Siege 2: Dark Territory: entertainingly daft action film. Steven Seagal has charisma of an MDF cupboard & constantly looks dead behind the eyes but villains are very watchable. Its like drone figure mechanically working its way through an army. Enjoyed it more than original
positive · AI labelView post →So something happened unaccounted for so for DnD night the group watched Under Siege 2 and it's extremely funny watching a steven segal movie after never seeing them but HAVE listened to the like 4 episodes BtB did on the guy Everyone in the movie wants to kiss him, especially his enemies
positive · AI labelView post →...air I watched Under Siege 2 and as soon as the VA for Lexington spoke in a scene I immediately recognized the voice. Thom Adcox Hernandez(VA for Lexington in Gargoyles) was one of the computer techs in the command center for tracking the satellite weapon of the movie.
neutral · AI labelView post →Busey and Tommy Lee Jones both chewing scenery AND a Colm Meany appearance! The supporting cast really carried that movie a lot further than it deserved. Which is probably why Under Siege 2 bombed.

positive · AI labelView post →Under Siege 2 Dark Territory (1995) is another example of a TV movie kind of production. lowkey entertaining, the bad guy is a dork. but there is a severe lack of Erika Eleniak

neutral · AI labelView post →This is the best one. Under Siege 2 is everything Under Siege should've been. I know the first movie has Gary Busey and Tommy Lee Jones, but this one's better. They got all the right characters doing all the right things. Original? Not all. Tried and true though. They hit all the numbers.

neutral · AI labelView post →This is good for a terrible, terrible B movie. Elements of Robocop and Total Recall, but it all takes place in a space prison. It's very stupid, but short with a lot of shower scenes. Looks cheap Is cheap Directed by a dude who made a lot of bad sequels Young Guns 2 Under Siege 2 5.5/10
neutral · AI labelView post →The sequel Under Siege 2 has one of the best movie quotes ever IMHO “Assumption is the mother of all fuck ups” Segal is a Putin loving prick now but no issue with either Under Siege film. A lot of fun and don’t bother taking either seriously

positive · AI labelView post →Seagal's first five movies are frustratingly good. I'll even give him Under Siege 2 (the villains absolutely elevated that one) and Executive Decision, although that one's not *really* a Seagal movie. That's 7 out of 50+. Hardly a passing grade. Stay outta my DMs with that Glimmer Man bullshit.

neutral · AI labelView post →Under Siege 2 is pretty bad. But the cast is once again a mix bag of people you know but don’t recall their names. But I guess the formula worked for a while. It stars Steven Segal but he has very few lines and not much screen time. Strong supporting cast to carry the film.
negative · AI labelView post →#42 - Under Siege 2: Dark Territory (1995) The sequel to my favorite Seagal movie doesn't really stand up to the predecessor, but it was still a fun action-filled romp with cool stunts, lots of cheesy dialogue and a bonkers premise 6/10 Review attached
positive · AI labelView post →I forgot I had a media thread Under Siege 2: this movie kinda sucks unless you're specifically watching it to take the piss on Steven Seagal, in which case it's extremely funny A glorious showcase of his lack of charisma and strange running gait. His enemies want to kiss him
negative · AI labelView post →Tonight's distraction movie is Under Siege 2: Dark Territory (1995) starring Steve Seagal, Katherine Heigl, Morris Chestnut and Eric Bogosian. I have loved this ridiculous movie since it came out. I think I saw it theaters. But there is one scene I always fast forward- the eye torture scene.
positive · AI labelView post →@patrickhwillems.bsky.social Hey pat I remember watching you talk a lot about Under Siege 2 quite reverently. I can't remember, did you clock it as a cyberpunk movie or is that another thing that should be film philosphy canon that I pulled your pants down on? Eh, is it Charles?
neutral · AI labelView post →I don't know how much of it was director Geoff Murphy, but Under Siege 2: Dark Territory is a vast improvement over the first film, in every regard. The good guys, the bad guys, the action and comedy, the banter and pacing. Everything's better including, miraculously, Seagal himself.
positive · AI labelView post →Omg same. I built bridges and crashed brio trains over them, like in the movie Under Siege 2 dark territory. Often with space ghost or PBS playing in the background on a Friday night.
neutral · AI labelView post →if you want more 90s action movie distractions, I'd recommend Under Siege (aka "Die Hard, but on a boat") and Under Siege 2: Dark Territory (aka "Die Hard, but on a boat, but on a train")
neutral · AI labelView post →Having watched them back to back, I can say that Under Siege 2 is the better movie, by an order of magnitude. Practically everything wrong with or missing from the first was corrected with the sequel. Not an essential by any means, but if you ever find yourself with the time, it’s worth a look.
positive · AI labelView post →also re: the Steven Seagal films they've covered I think it's very clear that to the extent he ever had a "good" period, it ended in 1995 with Under Siege 2: Dark Territory, i.e. the first time trailer voiceovers couldn't say "Steven Seagal IS…[title of movie]"
neutral · AI labelView post →"Steven Seagal was locked in a refrigerator for about a third of that movie." This is why I chose UNDER SIEGE 2 for the Seagalogy fest.

neutral · AI labelView post →Under Siege 2 would have been so much better with a different lead action star. Bogosian gives an all-time villain performance that is the only thing redeemable or interesting about the movie.
neutral · AI labelView post →Die Hard was such a good movie that multiple times every year for a fucking decade they released films self-promoted as "Die Hard in a _____." Under Siege was "Die Hard on a boat." Under Siege 2 was on a train! Air Force One: "Die Hard on a plane." Sudden Death: "Die Hard at an NHL game."

neutral · AI labelView post →Nobody will agree with me but not only is Under Siege 2: Dark Territory better than the first US, it's actually a very good movie.
positive · AI labelView post →One film I don’t even remember her being in: Soderbergh’s King of the Hill. Three films I didn’t mind her in: Knocked Up (she was good, but… not irreplaceable), Under Siege 2 and Bride of Chucky. Think that if everything else were better in OftM, she would’ve been good. But… it wasn’t.

neutral · AI labelView post →Gonna be honest, don’t know if I’ve ever seen a Steven Seagal movie that I can remember until I just finished Under Siege 2. How did they let this man make a bunch of movies? Just zero charisma
