A by-the-numbers actioner that hits most of its marks.

[Seagal's] action scenes are so one-sided that nobody in the film ever lays a finger on him. It gets boring.

Fire Down Below is an action film that's deadly slow and stupid -- like most of the mountain people portrayed in the film.
06/23/04
The acting is wooden (Seagal gets more zombie-like with each film), the writing is ridiculous and the fight scenes are redundant.

This is sub-par Seagal, which puts it down below just about everything else.

You have to give Seagal points for having his heart in more or less the right place, but Fire Down Below is a hugely silly movie.
01/01/00
A real pleasant surprise with a less brash, more likable Seagal. Manages to show a genuine affection for the kind of rural folks elitist Hollywood usually ridicules.

Never really generates much heat but instead delivers recycled lukewarm thrills.
01/01/00
Unless you're in the market for boredom, skip this one.

Marg Helgenberger plays Jack's love interest, the kind of tormented backwoodsy recluse Helen Reddy used to sing songs about. The stultifying aw-shucks courtship between the two is like a nightmarish version of 'The Bridges of Madison County'...

Not a very good film, but it does offer a few pleasant surprises, and I was not expecting that from a Steven Seagal flick.
