Half Past Dead
Action. Steven Seagal & Nia Peeples 2002
Seagal goes undercover in Alcatraz. Slow to start, a bit corny. Unusually for his movies the martial art scenes without him were a bit disjointed. Some gross inaccuracies, but at least the actors were using the SMGs correctly! Better than The Foreigner.
Moral of the story: Girls always have to show their midriff.
