Nico learned martial arts in Japan, and was in Vietnam for the CIA, and now is a cop in the vice squad of Chicago. A junkie tells him about a big drug deal; However it turns out that the deal was about C4 explosives and that one of the parties was the CIA. Nico gets ordered to keep out of it, but can't imagine why the CIA would sell C4, so he investigates further. While risking his and his young family's life, he discovers that the CIA tries to cover it's connections to drug dealers in Middle America and wouldn't even stop from murder.
A former Special Operations Vietnam vet works as a Chicago cop, and uncovers C.I.A. wrongdoing.
Steven Seagal is surprisingly lean and mean in "Code of Silence" director Andrew Davis' hard boiled crime thriller "Above the Law" co-starring skull-faced heavy Henry Silva as a knife-wielding psych . When I say 'lean and mean,' Seagal appears almost skeletal compared to the way that he looked in "Machete." Reportedly, Seagal got into the film business because one of his students was the Hollywood agent Michael Ovitz who paved the way to the silver screen. Making his motion picture debut, he is cast as an Italian-American who was born in Palermo. Chicago Sergeant Nicolo "Nico" Toscani was initially recruited by the CIA while he studied and taught martial arts in Japan. He wound up in Vietnam and saw some things that he should haven't seen. Back in Chicago, Toscani has married and begun a family. "Above the Law" is a straightforward law and order epic with Seagal defeating the slimy villains with ease. The title refers to nobody being immune from prosecution. Nothing surprising happens as our stalwart hero pursues the bad guys with a vengeance. The villains here are Colombians and Nico doesn't give them any slack. As it turns out, the CIA has ties with organized crime. No sooner than Nico has begun his investigation that he finds the Feds exerting muscle on him. Composer David Michael Frank scores "Above the Love" like a 1980s movie.
Nico Toscani is a martial arts expert who was recruited by the CIA and sent to Vietnam.
While there he witness the sadistic treatment of prisoners by Zagon, an interrogator, when he clashes with him, Nelson Fox, his friend tells him to get away.
Nico goes home to Chicago and becomes a cop. 15 years later, when he busts a major deal going down, he discovers a haul of plastic explosives.
Not long after, Fox calls Nico to warn him to back off and later he is arrested and suspended from the force.
But when a bomb is detonated at his church, and kills the parish priest, Nico wages an all- out war on whoever's doing this......
The years really haven't been kind to this movie, and as a debut for Seagal, it's pretty mediocre stuff. But films like this were very unique, and are scarcely seen now.
The budget for the film wasn't huge, but marketing for the film was very heavy if I remember correctly, and Seagal was a no name. Imagine a studio like Warners releasing a 50 million budgeted movie, where the only advertising was of someone you'd never seen or heard of before holding a gun? It sounds bonkers. Something fishy must have been going on, Seagals always been shady about his past.
But that's the exciting part of the film over with, and considering its directed by Davis, its a pretty dull film, with admittedly good fight scenes, but they are few and far between.
The big problem with the film is that there are too many caricatures on display here. The Mafia are always in restaurants and dress like prohibition is still going on, men of the cloth are almost too religious, and don't get me started on the owner of the shop that gets destroyed, I think the casting director just flicked through a cultural match book and picked the cheapest actors.
But it's all about Seagal, and he can carry a film, his screen presence is definitely remarkable, you could see his star quality.
Seagal is very restraint in this, but I feel like a lot is missing, the relationship between him and Grier is very rich, but on feels like something was edited out for time sake, because it appears that they are more than just friends on more than one occasion.
His trademark swagger came into full swing with Hard To Kill, and he was unstoppable until Fire Down Below, but seeing this now it's amazing how culturally offensive and borderline racist the film actually is.
Still great fight scenes though, which really is the only reason to watch this.
