Yeah the story has been done before and it's nothing new, but it's one of his best movies in a while. I know he's not the greatest actor, but he did a pretty good job this time. And I think this is probably his first movie ever without incredibly cheesy dialouge. And if you're looking for the typical Van Damme kick-everyone-in-sight movie, this is not it. Very little hand-to-hand combat, but some pretty cool shootouts. Looks like they shot some of the movie IN the United States too! Lately he has been shooting in other countries, because it's cheaper. But this time the production is better, everything is better except for a few scenes with cheesy effects but it is dismissable since the rest of the movie makes up for it. great movie? no. good? yes. this is worth renting...way to go Jean Claude I give this one 4 stars, for the change in directon and that it was actually decent!

The actress who plays his wife should go back to acting school. Other than that, the only thing missing here are some good old Van Dam kickboxing. Bottomline, the movie isn't bad considering a straight to dvd film. Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||

Read More Better than JCVD: I was pleasantly surprised by this latest Van Damme film. Although the screen play was not of the highest quality, it was surprisingly serious and mature (unlike most "B" action movies). Although the actor who played the police chief was definitely miscast, the acting overall was better than I expected, especially from Van Damme. The dark, emotionally tortured hero role is the perfect for Van Damme, and director Simon Fellows did a great job with the cast and screenplay he had to work with. The camera work and especially the musical score were that of an "A" movie!!! I will be looking forward to Simon Fellows' having the opportunity to direct some more serious dramas and high-quality action movies in the future. Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL?
