Best Steven Seagal Flick?
I've got to say 'Out For Justice'. I watched it tonight on HD (and although it still didn't look great), and it's just a great action flick with a crazy villain. Plus, Seagal is badass in the pool hall.
I also loved Hard To Kill. Heck, his first five were all great.
What's your favorite?

All of the above - all of his 3 word title movies prior to Under Siege are great. Then he got fat and slow and his movies sucked. I can't really pick - whichever one he broke the most arms in.

Like Tarantino said, his first 5 were all great. If I have to choose though, I'll choose Under Siege.

Under Siege.
Erika Eleniak coming out of that cake.
Tommy Lee Jones acting nutzo.
Gary Busey in drag.
Final boss battle knife fight.
Screen debut of Damian Chapa.
This movies just wins in so many ways.

Out for Justice, or Under Siege. But from his recent stuff Urban Justice is really good. Total ruthlessness not seen since Out for Justice.

Out for Justice is my favourite, but I'd say Under Siege is his best.
Not according to RT: Under Siege = 74% and Under Siege 2 = 30%
Even Roger Ebert says "[i]t isn't as good as the original". And he can get positively nutty with action reviews sometimes.

Most of his late 80's and early 90's films that he did for Warner Brothers were his best work.
The downhill spiral began when he made "The Patriot" and couldn't find a distributor for it, hence his DTV career began. But, not all of his Millenium Films DTV movies have been stinkers.

I'll go with Glimmer Man. It's hilarious how the bad guys get totally owned like in that restaurant or the last fight where that serial killer sunuvabitch is like a towel getting tossed around. 
Also the comraderie between him and Mr. Wayans was good.
Two things i like about Seagal is that he sticks up for the little guy in his movies and while his villains are mule mean he pretty much steamrolls through them!
