A pretty good Steven Seagal Thriller, a good looking well shot film set in Tokyo.
Seagal played his usual role but this time was more at home with the culture of Tokyo & used a Samurai sword to do his killing of the deadly Yakuza. The look of the film was very good & it was made very well for a low-budget Thriller & the action scenes, when they finally come, are pretty good & gruesome with some very gory sword swipes & stabbings.
Seagal is on the trail of the deadly Yakuza & is hunting them down through the murky down town streets of Tokyo, that's basically the story & it does have a very early 90's feel to it, which i really liked.
Seagal looks good here as he's in better shape & looks cool with his long leather jacket & he actually acts abit more here too.
"Into The Sun" is a slower paced Thriller than the usual Seagal flicks & is much less action orientated & more about story. It's a good film & Seagal is very good here in his role but it's still nothing particularly special or exciting but it's quite good.
Could've been a better Action Thriller & Seagal has made some way better straight to dvd flicks, like "Driven To Kill" & "Renegade Justice" & "Belly of the Beast" & "Submerged" but
Still this is a well filmed & well made film with a very Cool & very "At Home" Seagal (He lived in Tokyo) & some Cool sword fights but nothing amazing.
I still checkout Seagal's flicks & am still a fan of his as i grew up watching his 90's Action Classic's & i genuinely just enjoy his easy watching DTV flicks, most of the time you pretty much know what your getting.
