man early seagal is awesome! i recall there was no action star doing aikido let alone wristlocks/breaks and it was a breath of fresh air for the action movies scene coming from hollywood

so sad how the rest of his life turned out
I agree, Segal was hard as fuck when he first came out and I thought his style of action movies were innovating..

I was a little kid when my dad took me to go out watch Hard To Kill at the theatres haha without telling my mom.. man that movie blew me away at the time and I still think its good movie today!

Segal had some real hard movies like above the law, out for justice, marked for death, and Under siege..

I think he started sucking after On Deadly Ground came out in 94 although he had some few decent ones that followed like Under Siege..

Segal really fucked up in the 2000s when he got involved with some mob associates.. he made a ljg term deal with them which was why he started making so many straight-to-dvd B movies..
