a5c7b9f00b Nicolo &quot;Nico&quot; Toscani is the son of Sicilian immigrants, and Nico studied martial arts in Japan. His talents got the attention of CIA, which recruited him and sent him to help in some covert operations on the Vietnamese-Cambodian border in 1973. There, he became disgusted with Zagon, one of his superiors who used the Vietnam waran opportunity to get into the money making business of smuggling drugs. Nico left the CIA, and Nico now worksa Chicago detective and he has a wife named Sara. Nico discovers a major drug deal that involves Salvadorian drug dealer Salvano. Nico and his partner Delores &quot;Jax&quot; Jackson arrest Salvano, but Salvano is released at the request of Federal officials. Not listening to the orders to back off, Nico discovers that Salvano is connected to Zagon, who wants to fund an invasion of Nicaragua. When Senator Harrison puts the heat on Zagon and his group to reveal their undercover operations, Harrison becomes Zagon&#39;s next target. Sara&#39;s life is put in danger when Nico tries to protect Harrison from Zagon, who will stop at nothing to keep Nico out of the way. A former Special Operations Vietnam vet worksa Chicago cop, and uncovers C.I.A. wrongdoing. When I watch a Steven Seagal movie, I liked to come back to this movie Above the Law. This is the starting point of Steven Seagal career and I enjoyed this movie too. Andrew Davis is a good director for this film, Andrew and Steven did a lot for this film. I enjoyed this film and the other Steven earlier films he made before his career went bye-bye but I will always be a Steven Seagal fan forever and this film will be known for me. Steven will always be the great one and Andrew Davis will always be a great director and they should make another film together and I would watch it from start to end.<br/><br/>I give a 8/10 Nico Toscani is a martial artist and ex CIA operative who served in Vietnam. Who now servinga Chicago cop stumbles upon a drug ring run by a dangerous criminal with CIA ties that not only threatens the streets of Chicago but his very lifewell.<br/><br/>Steven Segals first film and a film with decent action a semi clichéd story with stunted pacing. The film while not the best action film or best of Segal&#39;s film has some witty dialog and some decent moments with its action. The pacing is a bit offone may get confused with where the story is trying to take us and how certain plot points are just plainly forgotten. Segal does what he does best which is to deliver his hard hitting action style with charm and bravado, but seeminglya whole this film is a bit of a let down compared to other action films from the era. Though worth a watch for its action and to see Segal in one of his better films compared to his later entries. A decent but not perfect action film that has its high points with its action and its intensity but lacks in other important areas suchstory, characterization and pacing but what can one expect from a Segal film to begin with.
