'Jesus, Richie!'

William Forsythe was hilarious in this, as the crack-crazed man on the run! He didn't take much crap from anyone, and killed a lotta people on his way to his ho's apartment! One scene that seems to come to my head occasionally is when they visit the poor guy in the wheelchair and he says:
"Jesus, Richie!"
and Forsythe says:
"Nah, he ain't got nutnin' to do wit' it!" and then he breaks out a huge sack full of crack rocks and proceeds to smoke 'em! What a nutjob!!!
I also like the "Attica" dude who gets whapped in the mouth with the cueball...twice!
And when the dude gets his leg shot off by the shotgun - HOW did they 'fake' THAT part?!
Also, isn't this the one where Seagal goes into the Italian deli and kicks everyone's ass, tosses one guy thru the window and hits another w/ a big salami?! That part is cool as hell too! ;^)

I assumed they used a one-legged stuntman, just like the Black Knight in "Monty Python and the Holy Grail."

Didja notice that only 2 of those guys were actually from Richie's gang? The rest of them worked at the deli, and they were just trying to subdue the crazy man in the absurd black costume who was demolishing the place before he did any more damage. Apparently, wrecking a deli is legal, but trying to stop someone from trashing one is illegal, at least in the alternate universe in which the movie is set.

"and they were just trying to subdue the crazy man in the absurd black costume who was demolishing the place" - LOL - yea, but you have to remember, it's Seagal's world they were living in!!

"Jesus Christ, Richie!"

"Nah, he ain't got nuthin' to do wit' it!"

I love the one dude with the insanely comical fake mustache- must have been some guy who DIDN'T want people to know he was in a seagal flick, LOL

I don't recall the guy w/ the insanely big mustache....I just remember Seagal kickin' a lotta ass in this movie! Oh, do U mean the big tub-o-lard who walks up to him on the street and says "I don't like how you're treating my friend!" and he punches him so hard in the sternum, he (dies?) gets knocked out? And then walks by the 4 brothas on the street and says "What's happenin'?" and the other guys say something like "damn, Holmes!" or something to that effect...?
It's a fun movie. I guess the best part is the pool room scene. Everyone gets their ass kicked, but the "Attica, d i c k " biker guy was the best!
"There's only two things stopping you. Fear and common sense!" THWACK! Right across the lips with a cue ball! ;-)

The scene you were referring to, flowbeer, at the beginning of this thread was not when he visited Chaz the Chair at the chop shop in the middle of the movie, but rather when he went to visit his brother Vinny at the scrawny dive bar almost towards the end; he walks up to this guy with the moustache, obviously a lookout (I think he had a weird name like..Veneer? or something), places his gun to the side of his head and says to him, "Howya doing Veneer!". The moustached guy turns to see Richie aiming the gun at his face, jumps and says, "Richie, JEZUS'CHRIST!!" to which, like you mentioned, Richie wisely answers: "Naw! He ain't got nuthin' to do with it." With this, he goes downstairs followed by Bobby Arms, who' s actually laughing at the comment crackhead made.

Yeah, I just saw this again last week and realized my error, just don't feel like going back & editing my opening post! ;-)

It was still a fun movie, with a lot of classic lines.

"Let's take him for some pork chops!"
Richie must have had the meat market guys on his payroll for them to join in the fracas.

Watch the scene again, and the hilarious way Seagal strolls into the door. LMAO it's so bad it's good.

Next to Under Seige, this is his best movie.

Ith my night!! My LATH night!!

Oh, he had them all on his back pocket alright!!! "Don't be a bad guy! Let me tell you something 'bout Richie; your friends don't like 'im, my friends don't like 'im..."(talking to the butcher shop guy behind the counter before he clocks him on the head and squashes his plastic gun, which he pulled on Gino).

[–] metal_head1216 15 years ago

And the two from Richie's gang he had JUST recruited lol! I wonder if he left the newbies on purpose knowing Gino would f#@k them up and he wouldn't have to lose his better guys Bocci, Joey and Bobby

No Sparkling Wiggles here!

You're probably right, metal!! Those two twirps were Richie's cannon-fodder. LOL
