First of all, if you watch this movie and don't think about wanting to be one of these bad guys, you just aren't human. If I could call noisy little girls the "B" word (and threaten to viciously murder them), shoot people left and right, throw useless women off a train and into a jagged rock river, and blow up an entire freakin' city, I'd jump on that job in a heartbeat! Seriously, who wouldn't?! Oh, did I mention they blow up a jumbo jet, too? It was probably full of useless children and horrible mothers and fathers anyway. So no harm done there. Same with the city/plant that blew up. Another thing to consider is the families of the all the ones who died. They were either overjoyed, or sad. It's okay, they were all probably crappy husbands and wives anyway, so they won't be missed. The action is really good and well executed. And of course you can't forget about Steven Seagul, right? The acting is also good, because everybody is basically just killing, and that's easy to do anyway. So to wrap up this short review, watch this movie if you love to watch people die. Forget the plot, the deaths and killings are better than a boring, regurgitated plot. There are plenty of humorous deaths to keep you entertained. Make sure to catch the bad guy kill the conductors, as he smiles the whole way through the shooting of two innocent old men! So smile when you murder someone, because it's okay to do so!

Starting with Above the Law and peaks with Under siege,Steven Seagal become almost action legend.He was making box office killing with movies like Marked for Death,Hard to kill,Out for justice and Under Siege.But things start to change When Seagal demands more and more,more.For On Deadly Ground,despite without any previous experience,He insisted to direct the movie.After Under Siege 2,WB has decided not to work Seagal anymore.Not Because of He is not as bankable as any previous movies,Because of his attitudes.WB didn't do too much effort to promote the movie and recruited two unknowns names as main villains and No name Director.Seagal's behaviour to other actors and stunt performers were no longer tolerable.His big ego would never let anyone to even to touch him, let alone a fair fight with a villain.As an Uncompromised guy,He finally face the truth He is no longer bankable.Hollywod career,big studio career is over in 10 years.What a pity,In a good shape,good relations with producers and directors,He could have been one of biggest stars.In Taken,Bryan mills, ın The Equalizer,Mccall may be John wick.too sad.

„Under siege 2 " is a totally over the top, totally unbelievable yet highly entertaining sequel to Seagal's best movie. Objectively if you compare it to the original it's a disappointment . The story is pretty much a copy of the first movie with small changes. It's also unrealistic and dumb in places. Despite it's faults it's still an entertaining movie.What we have here is basically "Die hard on train". The train itself is a good location. There is lot of pretty scenery and since the train is in constant motion the movie is also fast paced. I had problems with Geoff Murphy's direction in "Young guns 2" . Here he directs "US 2" with formidable energy. The movie is edited very quickly, almost like a music video. Speaking of music Basil Poledouris score is far superior than Gary Chang's from first movie. It's one of best soundtracks for action movie ever made. The special effects are adorably cheesy and add to the overall campy entertainment value. The script has some quotable one-liners : "Nobody beats me in the kitchen" , "Chance favors the prepared mind" , "Guess I'm not trained for this...".There is lot of cool train action here (on the train , under the train , in the train) . Every bad guy is dispatched with minimum of effort as no-one is anywhere near as hard as Casey Ryback . Broken bones, severed limbs, terrorists in agonizing pain … This movie has an obvious comic book feeling to it and I really liked the non stop carnage. They just don't make them like this anymore. Steven Seagal is basically invincible here. He gets shot , but the movie quickly forgets about it. His doing unbelievable stuff without breaking a sweat . "US 2" it does stretch reality to the breaking point and beyond, but it can be forgiven.Steven Seagal was forced to do this movie after the failure of his very personal movie "On deadly ground" . There is even an unused footage from "ODG" here . Seagal doesn't even try to act here. His obviously unhappy that his making this movie and more stiff than usual. There is a damsel in distress here- Ryback's niece Sarah played by Katherine Hiegl who is a good eye candy and nothing more. Seagal also gets a sidekick - naive porter Bobby Zachs played nicely by Morris Chestnut.The movie belongs to Eric Bogosian as crazed computer genius Travis Dane and menacing Everett McGill as Penn. There is veteran supporting actor Jonathan Banks ("Beverly hills cop") in small role of terrorist. Watch out for Kurtwood Smith ("Robocop") as a US general (too bad they didn't used him as a villain).Idiotic , yet fun movie full of testosterone. Best cheap thrills you can find. I give it 5/10.
