Review of The Expert (1995) by Ben R — 18 Apr 2013

Started off strong for a direct to video 90s action drama but lost its way and seemed to just fart around then finally just gave up on being a decent movie at the very end of it. Jeff Speakman is a decent action star when hes given better material but he kinda just seemed very bored in this.

James Brolin does a good job doing his best Burt Reynolds impression as a psycho warden who just chews fuckin scenery. Michael Shaner plays one of the most annoying smarmey villans I've ever seen and wanted to punch him evertime I heard him talk.

All in all not a very pleasurable movie experience. The plot starts out good then totally just becomes retarded when they start throwing in all these random characters and their pointless subplots that don't really do anywhere.

Watch at your own risk!
