Oh dear. How wrong I was to make a purchasing decision based on other's comments about this film. I was looking forward to a Jean-Claude-kicking-serious-butt-action. What I got was a disappointing, disjointed collection of badly filmed fight/action sequences and some thin plot that was used to put them together. Van Damme is better than this - much better. You want to see decent fight sequences? Get "The One" out on your favourite format and see how good it can really be.
It's very irritating that, even in this day and age, a director can find it difficult to shoot a spectacular fight sequence, even though one of the best on-screen fighters in the business is at his disposal.
Totally disappointed in this - Timecop is a much better film. The One, is even better.
And it's about time Van Damme got a decent film to star in, but next time, I'll rent the dvd before throwing my money away. Oh, and the DVD has sod-all extra features on it, which is almost as unforgiveable as poorly shooting the fight sequences these days.
I wanted to rate this film highly, but just can't. It sucks.
