Review of Half Past Dead (2002) by Bill S — 11 Apr 2015
Steven Seagal is known for making guilty pleasure action films, but this one is just plain guilty. With the exception of some decent action scenes and a corny-but-good performance from Tony Plana as the warden, every performance in the film (especially from rappers Ja Rule and Kurupt) are awful, even the plot is pulled straight from other and much better films, namely "The Rock".
The film offers cliches upon cliches and plot holes that fall into bigger plot holes and god awful acting with a musical score full of so much rap music you would think its a music video and a few nice action pieces that add up to about 10 minutes.
The film itself was pretty close to dead. D-.
