Action superstardom doesn't happen overnight, but it helps if your first movie as a solo hero blows people away. That's what happened to a young Steven Seagal, when his 1988 movie Above the Law made him an overnight icon. But what about some of his competition? In this video, we dip into Above the Law, as well as two early roles from Jean-Claude Van Damme, with Death Warrant, and Dolph Lundgren with the 80s video classic, Red Scorpion.
