Load of rubbish!!

In other words,this film is a surreal ride.

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.

This is the documentary series of the type reality-TV in which we have an opportunity to see how looks the work of the police officers in Jefferson Parish, Louisiana. Action, drama and tragedies in which participate and heroes help. I watched all episodes from first season, where I had the opportunity to know Steven from quite other side - as the father, the husband and deputy sheriffs. The life of the man who not only earns a livelihood playing in films, but having the normal life (He wanting to help communities, because he is a part of it). He riveted my attention for longer and I could to be the focus of attention to which things they can be essential for everyone of us. I am glad that I reached for this series = for me 8/10.

Never would I think that Steven Seagal that's right the action star with movies such as Hard To Kill and Exit Wounds and Above The Law is also a member of the Jefferson Parish Sheriff's Office in Lousisiana.I never thought of him being a real Lawman since a good bit of of his movies have him playing a tough cop, a FBI agent and so on.But yes it is true Steven Seagal has been a Police Officer for the city of Jefferson Parish, Lousisiana for 20 years since he has a lot of work in movies.It always funny to see how when he goes out and do his job and arrest someone. They would always have a dumb found look on their face when they see that it is Steven Seagal that has arrested them.One of my favorite ones is when a drunk heard his voice and he said You sound a lot like Steven Seagal and he said yeah I get that a lot. I thought to myself how dumb can one be to not know that it was Steven Seagal.They always find it crazy to know that it is Steven Seagal and they would say how much they enjoy his movies and even ask for his Autograph.Again just wild to think that Steven Seagal is a real officer.But he takes his job very seriously because he is passion about protecting and serving the innocent and arrest those who would do wrong.But if you are looking for a different show that is very extreme then you should give Steven Seagal Lawman a try.

Most of Seagal's money goes to good causes; health care, fund raisers, and children's support. the rest goes to a lost cause; strait to video, cheesy productions, and while some of these were okay, I'm not sure how many people have actually bothered to watch them. Steven Seagal's Reality series Lawman is a step in the right direction. It presents something fresh, interesting and certainly worthwhile for whatever fan base Seagal has left Believe it or not, Mr. Seagal has been a deputy sheriff almost as long as he has been a movie star. This series follows him through the streets of Jefferson county, Louisiana. Even though he is still pretty large and cumbersome, he is not as useless as he looks in his movies. The guy is perfectly capable of speaking normally it seems (wereas in his latter works, he could barely open his mouth). He can move fast enough to hop fences or catch runners on the streets. But here, we also get to see Seagal as a human being, not just a body. He helps out his neighbours, he visits hospitals, lectures kids, and even introduces his team to traditional Chinese medicine. We also get to see him in concert (briefly), and while his music ain't bad, his stage show needs some work. If I am gonna make a complaint about the series, it would be regarding a slight lack of tension and believability. The programme may not be fake, but it is assembled in a kind of stagy/schematic form. Every episode contains three or four arrests, and each takes up a mere thirty to forty seconds (a couple last longer). The editing is a bit tight, and it's obvious that lots of material is cut out. The camera is able to get pretty close, and if I was being arrested on the street one night, and noticed a camera in my face, I might be tempted to start cursing and fighting back. Actually I wouldn't do that, but I'm pretty sure many of the people here did. What is even more interesting is that half of those who get arrested are surprised when they notice Steven Seagal. After twenty years, you'd think rumour would've gotten around the criminal undergrowth that Seagal is a cop in the community. One other thing worth mentioning is the photography. A lot of the miscellaneous footage (much of which is landscape imagery) are actually nice compositions, and the intense saturation of the picture is also nice touch. In fact it does in a way contribute to the quality of the series. For example, quite frequently the combined light from three or four police cars on a crime scene illuminates everything in a dramatic coat of purple. (blue + red, right)As a whole, Steven Seagal's Lawman is imperfect, but entertaining nonetheless. The occasional hints of artificiality are not enough to harm the show, which is definitely Seagal's best entertainment investment so far this century.

First off, it's important to know these 3 stars came from the simple hilarity of the show. I have seen the first few episodes and not only was able to keep food down, but actually laughed out loud on several occasions during each show.Can anyone tell me which episode is going to show all these tubs of lard shoveling donuts and God only knows what else down their pieholes? By the looks of these guys it would take up an entire season.Also, speaking of pieholes, why is it that all these white chunky monkeys are all talking like uneducated black men? Do they think they're cool and fit in with the people? Do they actually think they're pulling it off?If you are a serious Seagal fan and/or of the show COPS, then this may entertain you. But don't expect anything real serious to happen (at least from what I've seen so far). As another reviewer already wrote, there are some absolutely ridiculous situations like 10+ cops jumping out in full gear pulling over a few kids with the remains of one joint acting like they're taking down terrorists.Hilarious!
