Review of Under Siege (1992) by Owen Gleiberman for Entertainment Weekly — 03 Jan 2018
In the brutally efficient Under Siege, Seagal, with his soft-spoken nihilist charm, attempts to move beyond limb-snapping exploitation and into epically scaled mainstream thrillers. He succeeds — but only because this sort of slick action bash doesn’t require a star with much personality.
At this point, personality might only get in the way.
