JCVD is known for his action movies where hes defeating his opponents and villains with ease which is amusing and fun to watch but almost hard to imagine in reality but in this movie his acting comes first. He is really good and story is maybe cheap but ending is makes it special. Movie is pretty much dark when we talk about story line but what is the more important that it does not include unreal action scenes or plot holes. Dialogue is solid and as i mention acting is fair with very good effort from Van Damme to make it count. I suggest you to watch this movie, you wont regret it.

It's amazing how an action movie star that has always been looked upon with a smirk and a snigger can appear in a film this captivating, dark and tense. Van Damme carries his role to the bloody end. Partly spoken French, partly spoken English but the film is totally French in style. And this is no criticism. Beautifully paced yet offbeat, this film captivates with subtle screenplay and suggestive scores that always convinces you that danger could be around the next corner. Such a contrast to Van Damme's former films that dissolve any interest when this film keeps you magnetised to the bitter end.

Van Damme has improved as an actor majorly, he needs to continue this European movie making streak and leave the usual hollywood action crap behind, this is a nice movie with better acting than story but still better then what he has done in the past decade. Watch it, won;t be disappointed.

Van Damme does well in these types of roles and even with the ease of a mostly French dialogue, he shines through when he's quiet and just painting a portrait of his character with the pain in his eyes and the tired look on his face.

Pretty straight forward plot. Van Damme, a club bouncer with a mysterious past, quickly finds himself unlucky and stuck between a rock and a hard place. All he really cares about is his daughter but the world just keeps getting in his way.

The action is unspectacular but in an artistic way. The fights are physical, gruelling and full of blunt force hits more than martial arts or fancy maneuvers.

If you're a JCVD fan you'll appreciate this film for what it is. And with a roughly 90min runtime, it's easy to get quickly invested and checked back into the world on a Saturday afternoon.

Decent pacing, simple story with a bit of action and a little bit of heart.

Under directions of Julien Leclerc, Jean Claude Vandamme can focus being an actor and working with this simple and efficient scenario. Nothing new but a good suprise, with intersting charachter: not talkative, with a huge pass and constrainted to do some dirty work. it's been a very long time and i thought i could never say that i'd like a movie of Jean Claude vandamme Again. Whish the best for future project :-)!!!
