Roger Ebert's Half-Star Reviews by DoyleE

Question 6

"[Steven] Seagal plays an undercover FBI guy who has teamed up with the crook Nick Frazier (Ja Rule), who vouched for him with the master criminal Sonny Eckvall (Richard Bremmer), who runs, if I have this correct, 'the biggest crime syndicate between Eastern Europe and the Pacific Rim.' He doesn't say whether the syndicate extends easterly or westerly between those demarcations, which would affect the rim he has in mind. Maybe easterly, since Seagal's character is named Sasha Petrosevitch. 'You're Russian, right?' he asks Seagal, who agrees. Seagal's answer to this question is the only time in the entire movie he has a Russian accent."
