    Jean-Claude Van Damme's nice recital as a special forces operative who finds redemption

    This Van Damme action picture displays lots of violence , action filled , thrills and fierce combats . It is entertaining , well paced and including interesting characters . It's thrilling and tense , at time suspenseful movie and the firepower , explosion , struggles , shootouts are pretty well done , including an exciting finale . It deals with a man's (Jean Claude Van Damme) heroic attempt to help a gorgeous woman (Charlotte Peters) in distress ends up with him waking up the next day without a kidney and plotting his vengeance . As Van Damme and his brother (John Ralston) attempt to retrieve his kidney and exacts a revenge , but the events go wrong .

    This is one of Van Damme's better films . It packs violent action , suspense , shoot-outs, and martial arts fighting and results to be quite entertaining . Agreeable movie , thanks to tight pace , skillful edition and well mounted combats . It's tense and exciting , at time lackluster action movie , but the struggles and fighting are well done . Suffering Van Damme plays finely an expert fighter and ex-special forces contractor who undertakes a race against time to recover his missing kidney , acting similarly to 'Hard cops' or ''Assessination Games' . Enjoyable relationship among two separated brothers , finely played by Van Damme and John Ralston ; both of whom form an uneasy alliance to take down a deadly target . Van Damme is good as action hero in this middling budget filmed on various locations in Vancouver , British Columbia , Canada, Nanhai and Guangdong , Guangzhou, China . Here Jean Claude plays an ex- special forces operative , confronting nasties and using his martial-arts skills . Long time ago he played big budget movies (¨Time cop¨, ¨Universal soldier¨ ,¨Double team¨, ¨Hard target¨) , nowadays he makes low-medium budget and directly to video (¨Derailed¨ , ¨Wake of death¨ , ¨In hell¨) like in his first films (¨Black eagle¨, ¨Cyborg¨, ¨Bloodsport¨). Remaining cast give nice acting as veteran Aki Aleong , John Ralston, the early deceased Darren Shahlavi , whom is dedicated the movie and special mention for the unknown newcomer Charlotte Peters as a beautiful prostitute mistreated by her pimp . This film results to be a standard actioner , but packs interesting main roles , atmospheric action set pieces and fast movement . It's produced with middling budget by Van Damme , Aki Aleong , John Ralston and Michael Lurie ; being professionally directed by Ernie Barbarash (¨Ticking clock¨ , ¨Hardwired¨ and ¨Six bullets¨ , again with Van Damme) . Barnabash has made other Van Damme's notorious vehicles as ¨Assassination games¨and ¨6 bullets¨ . The picture is extremely energetic and to be liked for real devotees of main actor . It's a must see for Van Damme fans.

    Not one of the best Van Damme films, but it's not one of his worst either.

    'POUND OF FLESH': Three Stars (Out of Five)

    Jean-Claude Van Damme stars in this martial arts action flick; about a man trying to get back his stolen kidney, in order to save his dying niece. It was directed by Ernie Barbarash (who also directed Van Damme in the B-action films '6 BULLETS' and 'ASSASSINATION GAMES') and it was written by Joshua James. The movie costars Darren Shahlavi (another martial arts B-action film star), John Ralston, Charlotte Peters and Akie Aleong. It does have some decent fight scenes but it tries to be a little too emotional, and overly dramatic, as well (which it doesn't quite have the resources for).

    Van Damme plays Deacon; a man who just arrived in China, in order to donate a kidney to his deathly ill niece (Adele Baughan). He rescues a woman (Peters) from her attacker (Shahlavi), nearby the hotel he's staying at. She asks to buy him a drink, as thanks, and he wakes up the next morning with a kidney missing. With the help of his extremely religious brother (Ralston), the father of the dying little girl, Deacon decides to track down the criminals that robbed him, and get his kidney back. It helps that Deacon is an expert martial artist and former black-ops agent, of course.

    I used to be a huge Van Damme fan (he was my favorite actor, briefly, as a kid) and I still enjoy watching his movies. He doesn't deliver a very good performance here though, because it seems like he really didn't want to be there (he can be a pretty good actor, when he's passionate about a role). Shahlavi, Ralston, Aleong, and a few others, do give decent performances though (on the other hand). The fight scenes are entertaining as well; and there's a decent story hidden in there too. The melodrama, and cheesy production values, do make the film a little hard to bear though, at times. It's not one of the best Van Damme films, but it's not one of his worst either.

    A fun Van Damme film.

    Let me start by saying that this was a fun action movie, Van Damme is, I felt really cool in this film.

    He plays Deacon Lyle, a sort of french special forces contractor, who is on vacation in (I think it was the Philippines), I've seen it a few times but forget where it's set. While there he wakes the next morning to find that his kidney is missing and preparing to get it back.

    I have to admit that the story to this film is very simple but I still found it enjoyable.

    Jean Claude Van Damme is very good in this as Deacon, but I always enjoy watching his films.

    Charlotte Peters is pretty good in her role I think this is her first film role but I found her performance exceptional. And she is very sexy too, she is a gorgeous Irish woman very attractive.

    As for the rest of the cast they were good too. The action scenes are pretty good as well, all of the fighting was done in a way I feel was fresh and inventive, I realize that some of you complain about noticing Van Damme's double in the fights, well to be clear, couple years ago he suffered a mild heart attack on the set of "Assassination Games", so that's self explanatory, I am in no way shape or form bothered by this, besides he is getting older.

    Anyway overall I liked this film, it's one of those sit back, relax and enjoy the body count type of films.

    I give it a 6/10. A fun little action film and if your a Van Damme fan I recommend this to you.

    Van Damme is back!

    Jean Claude has been doing very well in recent times. It is great to see him making a decent comeback. My wife and I took the pleasure of watching Pound Of flesh tonight. I'm enthusiastic about it giving a rating of 8-10 - The movie provides plenty of action which is what I'm mainly in it for.

    My wife is a Filipina and we were happy to recognize areas of Manila in the movie. I have this feeling that I may have been around the area during the time Van Damme was visiting the Philippines. The beginning starts of a little rough, but when the action begins and the twists start to roll in...This gem starts coming together better. My wife cried at the end. The story was well set up and unpredictable. I hope these guys get back together again for some more kick ass movies in the near future.

    Another light plotted Van Damme flick

    I don't usually write reviews for bad films. But being a huge Van Damme fan and loving his older movies, i thought that this would be a good film as Van Damme really hyped it up. Unfortunately the film falls apart very quickly. The most funny and annoying part of the story and most ironic i guess, is that they still use the Kick boxer line "Our parents got divorced i stayed with dad and my brother went with mom" to establish his thick french accent compared to the American accent that his brother has. The Acting was cheesy, mediocre at best. Van Damme probably was the best actor in the film. The story was a Van Damme story with a stupid twist, which would not have swayed the character in the end, but its the story tellers felt that Van Damme's character needed more drama and so we have the ending we get. The CGI was extremely bad. I couldn't understand why they had to use Green screen for the night club when in the next scene they are clearly standing in a similar if not the same actual night club that they just CGIéd before. Anyways, i hope that Van Damme fans can enjoy the film solely based on being JCVD fans

      Deacon Lyle: Kidnap and rescue is all fine, but what I'm really good at is killing people.

      George Lyle: That must be hard.

      Deacon Lyle: No, that's the scary thing. Killing, it's easy. Living with it... that's hard.
