5.0 out of 5 stars Half Past Dead, December 11, 2004
A Kid's Review
This review is from: Half Past Dead (DVD)
This movie is one of the best Steaven Seagal movie I have ever seen. The dvd is action packed with features. I like how the action and the special affects look. Me I am a big fan of Steaven Seagel. And I love this one. I was one of the first to buy the incredible dvd. The dvd has cool features like deleted scenes, on the set special, scene selections, Interactive Menus, Audio Commentary with the director, Theatrical Trailers, Digitally Mastered Video, and Widescreen and Fullscreen presentations.

This is all in this action packed dvd expreience

I SPENTED 24 MINUTES WATCHING SPECIAL FEATURES ON THIS SPECIAL DVD!

4.0 out of 5 stars Still better than most Van Damme movies, September 22, 2003
By steve (Jefferson, Ga USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Half Past Dead (DVD)
I wasn't expecting much out of this movie, but it was suprisingly tolerable. The fight scenes are good, although I don't like those lame camera effects where something's in slow motion, then suddenly it's in fast motion for 2 seconds, then back to slow motion. Nia Peeples was awesome. I've never seen her like this before. This makes me forget about her lame charactor in The Blues Brothers 2000. The bad guys are led by Morris Chestnut, who was Segeal's sidekick in Under Siege 2 as the porter on the train. He does a decent job as the villian. Then, of course, there's a couple of rap singers trying to get into acting. Ja Rule and Kurupt (?) They're acting is okay, but I don't see them winning any academy awards for Best Supporing Actor in this movie. This dvd is worth checking out if you like Steven Segeal movies. It's already in the "cheap" section at certain stores. I guess that's just because only 4 people saw the movie in the theater.

3.0 out of 5 stars not Seagal's best, BUT far from his worst!, March 27, 2004
By Living in Budapest "livinginhungary" (Budapest, Hungary (originally Ann Arbor, MI)) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Half Past Dead (DVD)
Half Past Dead is far from Steven Seagal's best work (see: Above the Law and Under Siege). It is also nowhere near some of his more recent dreadful flicks (see: The Patriot (on my top 10 list of all time worst films ever)). Half Past Dead's predictable plot provides enough action and interesting characters to keep the viewer's attention. I could do without the slow-mo/speed up fight seen special effects. Overall this is a decent film worthy of renting by action film fans and of buying for Seagal fans.
