Er ist ein Polizist. Es ist ein schmutziger Job ... aber jemand muss diesen Abfall beseitigen
Der Berufskriminelle Richie schießt auf offener Straße und vor den Augen seiner Frau den Partner von Streetcop Gino nieder. Gino ist außer sich und will Richie persönlich zur Rechenschaft ziehen. Leichter gesagt als getan, denn Richie und seine Bande ziehen inzwischen eine regelrechte Blutspur quer durch Brooklyn. Selbst die Mafia kann den Amoklauf ihres Handlangers nicht stoppen. Im Verlauf der Verfolgungsjagd erfährt Gino den Grund für Richies Raserei: die Ehefrau seines Partners hatte aus Eifersucht ein Foto, das ihn beim Sex mit Richies Freundin zeigt, Richie zugespielt. Am Ende einer Schreckensnacht kann Gino den wahllos mordenden Junkie stellen.

"The one with the nipples you could dial a phone with." Finally a movie that can challenge Under Siege as the best Steven Seagal movie. In Under Siege we get Tommy Lee Jones as an amazing bad guy, In Out for Justice we get William Forsythe as an equally amazing bad guy. William Forsythe as Richie just doesn't give a flying F. He kills cripples, kills people who piss him off while being on the road. Kills a cop on clear daylight. Hits his brother. Drugs is his fuel to get through the day and he supports an amazing mustache. Steven Seagal is just as amazing in this one. His ponytail, he just oozes cool in this one. Just casually blasting off one half of someone's leg. Hitting bad guys with a snooker ball. How he fights with sticks. Taking in a stray dog, who later pisses on the guy who threw him out. His looks. Him trying to be as Brooklyn as possible and just non-stop great lines. Out for Justice is just 90 minutes of fun and one of the best that Mr. Steven Seagal has to offer. It even as a Beastie Boy song during a montage. Yes, it has a montage. If you haven't seen this one yet, go check it out.
One of the early Stephen Seagal movies that already has the classic recipe. A larger than life good guy and caricatured bad guys. When you see the movie, it is hard to accept that his performances went basically downhill from here (with very few exceptions). For fans of the man.
This was, in my opinion, one of Seagal's best ever. The story was great, the fight scenes were superb, the supporting cast was probably the best ever in any Seagal movie. To this day, any time I see William Forsyth in a movie, I immediately see "Richie"; he pulled that part off probably better than anyone else could have. Also had some help from Jerry Orbach, a young Julianne Marguiles, a considerably-younger Raymond Cruz, and even a stick-fighting scene with Danny Inosanto, longtime friend and student of Bruce Lee (who had a very memorable stick-fighting/nunchaku-fighting scene with Bruce Lee in _Game of Death_). Even Seagal proved in this one that he could portray some emotion (and no, I'm not referring to the laughable onion-tears he had after seeing his best friend's dead body on the sidewalk). His intensity in this particular film was on display more than any other (that I can recall off the top of my head), and he actually came across as being almost unbridled rage at what had happened. It was a refreshing change to see him actually show some emotion for once, to actually fight like he **wanted** to hurt people, as opposed to being his usual emotionless _"I'm only stopping you from hurting ME..."_ character. I understand that aikido - and martial arts in general - is about controlling your emotions and not allowing anger to direct what you do, but in this case it was nice to see him portray a man who was emotionally invested in what had happened, and what he was going to do about it. I also felt the "struggle" between Gino (Seagal's character) and the mob as to who would take care of the "Richie problem" (and how) was an interesting twist; just seemed to add a bit of depth to what could have been an otherwise kind-of stale story. I've watched this one multiple times (just watched it again tonight) and it never gets old. Absolutely one of Seagal's best.
Seagal's one of finest, a straightforward action packed crime movie from the early 90s. Loved the idea that it tells you the story of just one night or roughly a day of vengeance. Cast was great, even the dog (remember, a year before, in Hard to Kill, Seagal had a little cat pal) was fun.
This why you need good actors to play villains... Forsythe has the mustache, does the voice, even does stuff with his face just for this character. Great job.
