[info] OCOG s comment:

What bashfully runs in the night program, and to Steven Seagal in the lead role can advertises, a certain sense, have no level. Too much should we therefore Today The You do not expect, but even then the fun content of the film questionable.

Harlan Banks (a very wide in the previous Steven Seagal) is hired as a driver in an armored car, to his surprise ending in a robbery. Harlan as the supposed bad guy is a life sentence thrown into high security prison, where he immediately contacted the cliché black prison inmates Ice Cool (Anthony "Treach" Criss) befriends him assist you with the jailbreak. Harlan therefore set out to redeem his vest and to take revenge on the real villains. In this case it are still a bunch of gangsters on the heels of those who believe, Harlan knew where the money is now missing.

In Steven Seagal's eternal leather coats swell the pounds, so that it looks more like a ridiculous stuffed into a straitjacket, fairly stiff fight sausage and, accordingly, wooden stomping through the area. That it is used a double, in most scenes, makes things any better or worse. Seriously one can take neither Steven "the man with exactly one facial expression" Seagal nor his rear view double.

indicated the rudimentary, chaotic action can be followed only with difficulty. After a primitive for movies of this style still passable chase at the beginning is changing Today You Die to an absolutely intolerable in a prison film became too long middle section, which will so miss not a cliché. The prison inmates have nothing better to do than to hear hip-hop, muscle-bound upper body squeeze in too tight vests and commit constantly meaningless stabbings, which of course never watching a guard and therefore remain without consequences. Equally uninspiring is the jailbreak of Harlan and Ice Cool by helicopter and the subsequent final which is scarcely recognize it as such.

The silly dreams of Harlan redundant friend, who will create a mystical connection to Harlan's throw situation, with cheaper Symbolism around, never to be discussed in more detail and for that reason alone is a non-starter.

The logic remains at Today You Die, which also provided recycled, but also many scenes from other movies, completely on the track. Although our two "heroes" have broken out of prison, no one cares. They are neither sought nor prosecuted, but provide the only shoot-outs with bad guys, which consist of the evil money robbers and a cliché-cluttered Chinese course. can come over

The fact that neither power nor passable action is logical. Thus Today You Die is actually only hardcore fans of Steven Seagal (Is there such a thing anyway?) Recommended, and even then really only for completeness. This film has not even cucumber Trash qualities.
