What Van Damme is all about., 3 October 2003
Author: rmadesp (rmadesp@yahoo.com) from LA, USA

I love this movie, simply for how entertaining it is, I dont think anyone would say this is dull. You have Van Damme as a detective shooting a suspect dead, then saying "your under arrest." Then, immediately following, you have this great vision of an airplane flying overhead into the sunrise (or sunset) with some great "feeling so fine" music playing while JCVD all dressed up so smooth walks into a federal building to a meeting where we learn about the forecoming story. Then while undercover in prison, the laughs dont stop and the action heats up. This is classic Van Dammage that you dare not miss.
