General Commander | Blu-ray & DVD (Lionsgate)
RELEASE DATE: May 28, 2019
On May 28th, 2019, action legend Steven Seagal (End of a Gun, Cartels) returns with General Commander, his latest thriller from writer/director Philippe Martinez, who is perhaps best known for directing Jean-Claude Van Damme’s 2004 film, Wake of Death.
After CIA agent Jake Alexander (Seagal) sees a member of his team killed during a sting operation, he demands revenge against guilty mob boss Orsini. But the CIA won’t sanction the hit, so Jake and his crew quit the agency and form a task force with just one mission: vengeance.
The film also stars Sonia Couling (A Stranger in Paradise), Byron Gibson (Hard Target 2) and Ron Smoorenburg (Triple Threat).
Lionsgate is releasing General Commander on Blu-ray, DVD, Digital, and On Demand on May 28th.
Hi is this series available to buy on a bos set in the UK and is it in English ?
box set ?
I haven’t seen it since 2004 but I remember ‘Wake of Death’ being an excellent direct-to-video action flick.
Wake of Death was excellent. It should have been a theatrical release. The action was nice and evenly spread out across the movie despite it not being a “fight” film. The acting was very good as well by everybody. It was just a satisfying yet gritty flick.
I’ll be surprised if Martinez can get anything like that out of Seagal though. If the man does fight scenes while sitting down and has stunt doubles walking up stairs for him, what’s the point? Martinez and Logan should stay away from him.
Some of Wake of Death was directed by an uncredited Ringo Lam, if memory serves well.
I think you’re right. I get this one confused with UNTIL DEATH.
Hmm. I thought Ringo quit before he began work on that film. I thought some of it was similar to his style.
This is not to take anything away from Martinez. I actually like his little-seen dtv The Heat Experiment, with Val Kilmer.
General Commander 12 episodes, when will it be available on DVD in the UK ?
Boy, a lot has changed since I commented on this in 2017. Ron, why are you associating with these assholes? I’m also questioning what kind of guy Phillipe Martinez is for continuing to work with Logan and Seagal.
When will this be released in the uk on dvd
