Out for a Kill

Out for a Kill (2003) is a Steven Seagal action thriller you can watch online on iFILM. This time Seagal isn't a cop but an archaeology professor, Travis Burns, whose dig on the China–Kazakhstan border drops him straight into a drug-smuggling operation.

From there his life collapses. His assistant is murdered, he's framed and locked away, and a cartel hit takes his wife. Once free, the mild-mannered academic reinvents himself as a one-man wrecking crew and tracks a Chinese narcotics syndicate across Europe. Hong Kong–style fight choreography, far-flung locations and Seagal's trademark aikido are all present and accounted for.

Michael Oblowitz directs, not for the first time with this star. The film is pure early-2000s direct-to-video Seagal — no pretensions, straight to the point. If you have a soft spot for that era of action or for the man himself, it does the job. Stream Out for a Kill (2003) online on iFILM.
