Max Stevens (Steven Seagal) is the best kind of thief, a modern-day Robin Hood who steals from the rich and gives to those in need. His talents, however, are peerless, and he will do whatever it takes to get the job done, regardless of the ruthlessness involved. Convinced by his lover that it's time to go straight, Max agrees to one last heist, which, of course, does not go as planned. Set up and framed for a much bigger crime than the one he signed on for, Max finds himself in a high-security prison where he must prove his mettle among the inmates. He forms an unlikely friendship with Ice Cool (Anthony "Treach" Criss), and together they orchestrate a massive jailbreak, setting out to extract revenge from whoever set Max up.

After a long time, a somewhat solid action B-movie action again. Paradoxically, I was most surprised by the one I expected the least from. Steven Seagal shows in several passages that he can still handle himself, and I dare say that if someone were to be able to bring him back to the world of action films and add a decent screenwriter and cameraman to his team, the result wouldn't turn out so bad. Yes, I'm subtly suggesting Under Siege 3, Seagal still has it in him, If he watches his weight, I don't see a problem with it. His latest action flick may not have that much action, but it is much clearer and better shot than in his previous few. The script is of course about nothing and is boring, that is undeniable, but the chase with the armored vehicle is quite impressive, and most importantly! Seagal is breaking arms again! Proper B-movie stuff.
