There was a time when Steven Seagal could set the box-office on fire & leave the action-movie fans to ripples. I was & still remain a fan of this man, despite his career having declined & his appearances strictly seen on direct-to-DVD films.
And 'End of a Gun', his 5th film in this busy year, is a mediocre film, that doesn't even improve as it progresses. Its got a fairly decent plot, but it makes almost nothing out of it.
'End of a Gun' Synopsis: A former federal agent crosses paths with a drug kingpin's enforcer after he saves a woman from danger.
Keoni Waxman's Writing & Direction disappoints. Waxman has made many movies with Seagal, but this time he stumbles. Of the cast, Seagal delivers adequately. Jade Ewen looks hot & performs ordinarily. But its Ovidiu Niculescu, who's splendid as Seagal's old friend & is easily the best thing about the film.
On the whole, 'End of a Gun' is a missed opportunity.
