Review: "JCVD"

Seen on: November 23, 2008
The players: Director: Mabrouk El Mechri, Writers: Christophe Turpin, Frédéric Bénudis, Mabrouk El Mechri, Cast: Jean-Claude van Damme, Francois Damiens, Zinedine Soualem, Karim Belkhadra, Jean-Francois Wolff
Facts of interest: None.
The plot: When Van Damme finds himself in the middle of a hostage situation, he shows the world a side of him no one has ever seen before.
Our thoughts: My personal experience with Jean-Claude Van Damme is fairly specific. I may have seen “Bloodsport” more than a dozen times when I was teenager. This is not because I particularly enjoyed the film (although I must admit that image of Van Damme doing the splits in his underwear across the kitchen counter tops has never quite left my head); no, the reason I’ve seen the Van Damme classic so many times has a lot more to do with laziness than anything else.
