im used to seagal being some kind of cop, ether in the police or army if not he has been, then some one kills or hurts his loved ones and he takes revenge wearing one of his coats.
the only one in this movie was his coat??
for me i think thats why it didnt work as well as the low budget.
i'm pretty sure what he's trying to say is that in virtually EVERY Seagal movie, Steven plays the role of some kind of law-enforcement agent who wears a silly coat while he takes revenge on someone who killed one of his loved ones.
and in this movie, the only part of that cliché formula present is that he's wearing a silly coat.
thus, he's missing 2 of the 3 parts that have made all of the rest of his movies "successfull".
and while i'd argue that there is MANY more things missing from this movie that make it not work (like a plot, for instance), i enjoy the alan-hudson90's simplified take on things
I think he is refering to the fact that Seagal is replaced by a stunt double for about 55% of the movie, so the only thing we are seeing of him now is his coat.....worn by somebody else.
