As others have pointed out, his strength wasn't in acting per se. His first three or four movies are competent, b-movie action, and there is some differentiation between his characters. Under Siege is very good - great director, outstanding supporting cast.

In his movies, Seagal is never just a tough guy who knows how to fight. He usually has several other skills that require plenty of time and effort to master. You can't help but wonder where he got the time to perfect them all. For example, in The Patriot, he's the world's best immunologist who also happens to be an ex-CIA agent and weapons expert. ...
Steven Seagal normally survives just fine without weapons because he is so good with his hands and feet. He's a real-life martial artist after all. And whenever a weapon is lacking and he doesn't feel like using his hands, he does know how to improvise. In The Glimmer Man, where he starred with Keenen Ivory Wayans, Seagal sliced someone's throat wi...
One notable thing about Steven Seagal's fight scenes is that the enemy's punches and kicks rarely land on his body. His arms are the perfect shield. They normally manage to counter all the strikes. It's a surprise that he hasn't been made into a Mortal Kombatcharacter yet. RELATED: The 10 Best Steven Seagal Movies, Ranked And despite how deadly the...
Medical experts can confirm this but we imagine that a person who has just woken up from a lengthy coma would be pretty weak. They'd need weeks or even months before being able to function at their full capacity again.A couple of people who woke up from comas also confirmed this to the Daily Maila while back. In Hard To Kill, Seagal plays a police ...
To make him appear as more intimidating, every Steven Seagal character normally blends into the shadows at some point. In an important fight scene, you can't see his face at first. Then it's shown just when he is about to break the bad guy's bones. Before he appears out of the shadows, you can always guess what the bad guy is thinking: "Oh my God. ...
The bicycle kick is popular in soccer. It normally involves a player throwing their body in the wair then connecting with the ball before it touches the ground. Now imagine this in a fight scene. It wouldn't look so realistic, would it? Steven Seagal pulled it off in 2001's Exit Wounds, and it ended up being one of his cheesiest movie moments ever....
Even in the action-filled 80s and 90s movies starring the likes of Stallone and Schwarzenneger, the heroes never really fought unless there was a good reason to. However, in Steven Seagal movies, fighting is normally the only way to solve all disputes. Didn't he ever listen to that Kenny Rogers song? Take Fire Down Belowfor example where Seagal is ...
Steven Seagal enjoys beating up non-Americans and non-Russians. He's a citizen of both countries after all. And he normally decimates them in their own country, where they'd logically have an advantage. In Into The Sun,he was a CIA agent (ain't that familiar?) who went to Japan and almost made the infamous Yakuza extinct by killing nearly all its m...
In something similar to Marlon Brando in The Godfather,Seagal prefers whispering in his movies instead of raising his voice. And he does so with an accent whose origins are hard to trace. This sure does make him look more badass than everyone else in the movie. RELATED: 10 Huge Stars From The ‘90s Who Are Jerks To those who hate Stallone's constant...
Steven Seagal has played law enforcement officers in plenty of movies. In most of them, he goes on a law-breaking spree in order to get to the group of criminals he's hunting. And the criminals always end up dead instead of in jail. Judge, jury, and executioner? We get it. But why doesn't he suffer any legal or professional consequences? In Kill Sw...

His fight scenes are hardly impressive, he's not balletic enough to show it off, and he's so monotone in his acting. Little to no expression in his face. I often think it's those around him that makes him look good.

Incredible, non-stop action and the fight scenes are some of the best Steven has done, especially the one in the market-place and the final fight scene. Byron Mann is probably Seagal's best costar - they work really well on screen together.
