By-the-book stuff, but that's what's expected whenever the name 'Steven Seagal' tops the marquee.

There are movies that you know can't be any good, so they'd better be great. Fire Down Below ... achieves that grand level of absurdity.
Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle

Seagal barely works up a sweat... He certainly doesn't work up any drama.
