5 minutes into the movie I was already facepalming myself to death The philisophical Seagal philosophing about life while being his typical stoic shallow action hero at the same time just doesnt fit Seagal trying too hard to use street slang, saying "man" at the end of every sentence ,even using it on a freaking women.. cringy! The supporting girl watching her boyfriend getting murdered by Seagal because apparently he interfered in the fight, and not only is she not traumatised about the incident but shes hapy and smiling and flirting with Seagal the next day, what the hell was that? the "french" extras barely speaking a word of french because they have a horrible accent when they do, you're telling me they could find a handful of french actors in France or wherever this was filmed? The guy who gets his throat cut at the beginning feeding straight lines to someone standing in front of him with a knife about slicing his throat, so predictable and poorly written the mob boss that is the most goofy looking villain I've ever seen, with ridiculous hair and voice that isnt synched the rest of the movie is a pseudo-heist movie with a cop who somehow has no compunction about stealing mob money, as if sudddenly two wrongs make a right and thats ok in his ethic code

Steven Seagal has done some good, or at least watchable, films. Particularly 'Under Siege'. He has also done a lot of mediocre and less films, indicative of laziness and that Seagal was well past his sell by date, and a good deal of them are even very bad. 'End of a Gun' is one of the very bad ones, though not 'Contract to Kill' awful, almost anything is better than that. It is not one of Seagal's worst, the scenery has some atmosphere but that's hardly an endorsement. Did not expect much, but watched it because Seagal has shown signs that he can be halfway decent and as said not all his films are bad. Also do appreciate the action genre and there are good films out there in the genre, classics even. 'End of a Gun' is far from that, more closer to a waste of time that shows little signs of trying. Seagal himself gives another lazy and wooden performance that shows that he was not interested and wanted to be somewhere else. His reading-from-an-autocue-like and robotic line delivery in particular betrays that. The rest of the cast are just as poor though in all fairness have little to work with and over-compensate. The characters are ones we know very little about and don't care what happens to happen, so unengaging and one-dimensional they are. The dialogue is risible, with a lot of cheesiness, awkwardness and far too much talk delivered with little emotion or momentum and bordering on the near-incomprehensible. Its excessively talky nature affects severely the pacing, which never comes to life. There is no urgency, let alone tension, intrigue or suspense. The action doesn't feature enough in comparison and suffer from pedestrian choreography and laughably bad editing. The story is by-the-numbers, dull and not always easy to follow. Direction is flat and ill-at ease, while the sound/soundtrack are one-note and obvious as well as poorly recorded and the whole film looks cheap. And it's not just the editing, the slapdash effects and drab photography also. Overall, a mess in almost every way. 2/10 Bethany Cox

Actually I would give this a 5.5. Obviously one needs to separate his older movies to screen vs direct to media as is his MO for some years. This particular movie, has some good comments and insights from the main character which raises the rating. It is not over indulgent in violence, and has minimal sex. It is just plain entertaining. If you just want to enjoy a movie and relax without being hyper-critical, End of a Gun is a good movie to watch. I sure wish he would lose some weight and get a better hairpiece. It appears he and Travolta go to the same wig shop.

First of all. We ALL know Seagal is putting out movies like there is a movie store atm behind him. But still, if you give this movie a shot, and think about it, its actually not that bad! Seagal is looking good for his age, he had his special "Seagal" charm and attitude. Staying all calm. Bjt this movie delivers some fun jokes and lines from time to time. His cameo, an old cop does a great job as supporting actor. The main villain, oh man he is PERFECT for the role! He doesnt over act in any way, he had his special character going, the settings are all bright and nice, making you wanna be there. The movie does capture the beauty of Paris. The special effects are NOT bad as for in example "Code of Honor". No computer animated crap, real explosions, great blood effects and also the way the movie is shot gombined with the music, makes it work fine. The female lead is OK. She aint bad, but she aint particulary good actress either. But she works as a sneaky damn character ripping people off. The thing that made me want to see more and actually get interested, was the scene where rhe main bad guy suddenly slit a guys throat like a complete psychopath. I didnt really expect it so it caught me off guard. Good entrance for him! Also i loved the ending scene, especially the knife fight. I mean COME ON! We just got a flashback to the good old knifewielding scene of Under Siege 1 when Casey Ryback met Tommy Lee Jones in a knife fight. THANKS! The movie overall could have had more tempo and aldo the last scene where all characters were presented with the actors names, if I was in charge I would freeze the pictures on the characters, making it a "drawing" and place the name besides it. It would look better, be odd and add a more "special touch" to the whole movie experience. Mr Seagal, good job overall! I liked it and it didnt dissapoint me as perhaps Code Of Honor and Flight Of Fury and others did. I give it a 7/10. / Sonichund

Action hero Steven Seagal seems to make nothing but abominable, low-budget thrillers. Occasionally, he churns out a decent one, but nothing comparable to he did when he was slim and trim during his theatrical release days back in the 1980s and the 1990s. Since those halcyon days, he has made several potboilers with director Keoni Waxman. "End of a Gun" is their latest collaboration, and Seagal doesn't skulk around the edges on this movie. Indeed, he stars as the indestructible protagonist, a former DEA Agent named Michael Decker who got booted out of the agency for doing things his way. As this yarn unfolds, our tall, imposing hero intervenes when he spots a man mistreating his * girlfriend in a parking lot one evening. Like most Seagal fights, this one doesn't last long, and the arrogant Ronnie (Andrei Ciopec) makes the mistake of brandishing an automatic pistol. Predictably, Decker decks him with a minimum of shots. The Paris police confiscate Decker's favorite pistol, but his old pal Jean (Ovidiu Niculescu) doesn't arrest him. The beautiful lady, Lisa Durant (television actress Jade Ewen), that Decker rescued has an idea. She suggests Decker team up with her and the appropriate all of Ronnie's loot. The catch is that small fortune is locked up in the trunk of Ronnie's car, and the vehicle is parked in the police impound garage. Instead of taking ten percent, Decker decides to cut himself in for half of the loot. Meanwhile, Decker's chief adversary Gage (Florin Piersic Jr. of "Youth Without Youth") assembles a couple of gunmen, and they track Lisa down to the less than fashionable motel where Decker left her. The bullets fly, and Decker ices Gage's two henchmen without breaking a sweat. Nevertheless, Cage survives and manages to escape with Lisa. Gage's boss Vargas isn't pleased with his henchman's lack of progress in retrieving his money. Lisa convinces Gage to let her live so she can bargain with Decker. They set up a rendezvous to make a swap--the rest of the dough for Lisa--but she isn't fooling Decker. Decker relies on his Parisian friend to back him up. Mind you, Jean doesn't get out of all the gunfire without catching a slug for Decker. Unfortunately, all these shenanigans lack artistry, and Waxman lenses everything like the B-movie that it amounts to just to get it in the can and get on to the next picture. Waxman and co-scenarist Chuck Hustmyre generate nothing in the way of either suspense or momentum because the villains never properly challenge our hero. As the femme fatale, shapely Jade Ewen looks gorgeous, but she doesn't shed a stitch. Of course, she doesn't fool anybody either. Seagal talks a lot about honor in his gravelly voice. "End of a Gun" isn't anything to shout about, but it is better than the typical straight-to-video shoot'em up.

The weirdest film I've ever seen. Complete idiocy.

So in the latest years with Steven Seagal its been more miss than hits. But sometimes there is a movie that come out which entertain me enough to consider it a good time. Don't get me wrong, i don't expect an Hollywood production out of his movies, but in the direct to video action genre sometimes they do the job. Not this one... Keoni Waxman directed the pretty good Force of Execution, which had Seagal more as a support character. I enjoyed that one so i tough who knows this one may also be good. But its not the case. There is very few fights, and when there is the camera angles are terrible making it obvious its a Seagal body double for the bare minimum moves. The plot is pretty generic even tough OK, but the characters have nothing interesting. Seagal once again play an ex agent/soldier and the bad guys are generic as they can be. There is a couple gun fights which are also rather uninspired. The reality is when you watch a Seagal, one of the thing that is kinda fun is when the bad guys underestimate him, even tough he appear 2 feet taller than them, and he get out some one liners as he kick there ass. Not much of that in this. In any case unless you are a total Seagal must watch kinda guy, you can definitely skip this one. Its not atrocious or anything, its just boring...

Decker is an ex-DEA agent who takes action one night to save a girl from an abusive boyfriend. She approaches Decker with a proposition, help her steal $2 million from a car guarded by police and share the bounty. But if they outrun the cops, can they outgun the hit squads sent by the drug lord to reclaim the money........ 2016 must go down as Seagals worst year for churning out the most terrible films ever committed to a DVD. Fair enough, films like Attack Force, Against The Dark, and Belly Of The Beast were also terrible, but at least they had the comedy value of a terrible dubbed voice, and the most inappropriate stunt double I've ever seen. This is the era where the man simply cannot be bothered to do anything else than sit down, get the makers to get a quite attractive woman fall for Seagal, and make sure his suits make look just obese, rather than morbidly obese. And it's the pits. It's basically the same story-line that Seagal has had for the last fifteen years, man against the European criminal outfit. So we have Seagal with his token sunglasses, amazing stick on hair, and him grabbing someone's hand and killing them by slightly making them fall over. After the awful Sniper film, and the other one where he played the villain, not forgetting the one where he ripped off death wish, this really spells the end of what was once a viable action star. I'll never give up on the man, after all, he gave us marvellous action films from 1988 to 1996, and then he made the very enjoyable Exit Wounds, but this really is the lowest of the low. You can just tell he cannot be bothered anymore. And it's fools like me who get suckered in to the miracle that he may just have one last great set piece in him. Rather than a pie piece.

Steven Seagal's 'End of a Gun' from 2016 is an above-average sleek and briskly paced action-thriller from longtime Seagal collaborator Keoni Waxman, on his ninth film as director with the action star (plus several episodes of the 'True Justice' TV series) to date, and he again delivers a visually slick product and a good modern showcase for the aging action hero that proves there's life in the ol' dog yet. Set in France and involving stolen money belonging to a vicious crime boss, '...Gun' is more of a stylish thriller with light heist elements than a full-blooded action blow-out, delivering a story that allows for plenty of double-crossing betrayals, and while it might not be the most original or gripping of tales, it moves along much more breezily and has a bit more of a sense of fun than many of the action star's other grittier films. But, of course, it still provides several breaks to slot in Steven's usual bone crunching hand-to-hand fights and punchy shootouts, and there's plenty of amusing sly lines littered throughout the script to raise a little smile here and there to keep your attention. The film has much to recommend it for long-time devoted Steven Seagal fans, not least a genuinely committed and fairly relaxed lead performance from the action star this time around, so that means none of the dreaded re-dubbing that has plagued many of the recent direct to video efforts that the star seemed less interested in, and it certainly offers more than being a mere extended cameo being sold on his name (hello, 'The Perfect Weapon' and 'Sniper: Special Ops', looking at you!). But the film is helped immensely by three co-stars, with the gorgeous and effortlessly flirty Jade Ewen as Steven's partner-in-crime, Florin Piersic Jr as a coolly psychopathic henchman and Ovidiu Niculescu as an old acquaintance of Seagal's on the local police force. Some guilty laughs also come in the form of Alexandre Nguyen's incompetent pretty-boy hired help (hilariously called Pee Wee!) who insists on wearing a cowboy hat, much to the embarrassment of his fellow cronies, and it's touches like this that really liven the film up. The film is not without its issues. Some viewers will hardly find the film truly captivating, it could have done with more lackeys for Seagal to beat senseless, and the mysterious faceless big-bad villain Mr Vargas is completely forgotten about by the end of the film - sequel perhaps? But the lean running time of just over 85 minutes means 'End of a Gun' dashes along at a spry pace, and it again shows Waxman constantly honing his skills and delivering one of his most polished efforts to date, one that also offers just a little change of pace for Seagal that will appeal to those most devoted of fans who still support his modern direct-to-video period. Seven out of ten.

Oh yes, he did it again. Steven Seagal hits us with yet another one of his low budget, bad acting, mediocre movies. I keep watching his movies hoping for more from one movie to another, but i keep getting disappointed. Steven Seagal has the emotional acting of a wooden log while keeps throwing cliché phrases throughout the movie, the rest of the cast is acting fairly plain and the guy playing Vargas might not have even been acting at all. End Of A Gun was shot entirely in Romania, as they say in the credits at the end, although the action is supposed to happen in France, which takes me to the first goof: at the end, when Seagal drives "into the sunset", you can see the license plates of his Porsche back/front are different. The second goof: Seagal is talking with Jean, the french detective about Vargas and the detective says that Vargas is an evil man hiding with the Silanoa cartel (instead of Sinaloa) - i mean common ... Silanoa ?! its not like the cartel is not internationally known. All in all, this was a pretty bad movie and a waste of time as expected. I wouldn't recommend this if you're not a hardcore Steven Seagal fan.
