Black Water: Perigo no Oceano

There's probably just enough here to please fans of Van Damme and Lundgren, but it's not a big stand out entry in either of their later careers. That said It is still well worth watching. James Welch Henderson, Arkansas 2/20/2021

I gave 5 just for the history of Van Damme & Lundgrin... NOTHING ELSE.

When two legends like these perform they need to pick the best of work team; director, producer, support team..etc

Shame to have such a movie.. Better after watching this nonsense to hurry and watch something from the back golden movies of them and hope to forget what was in, call it any thing but movie, Black Water

The whole movie was like actores and team of young studies final year project.. Amateurs, no experience, no scenario, no dialogue, no story, unbelievable/not logic acting, fake fake fake.

I've never seen such a ridiculous movie in my life. The guys were machine-gunning inside the submarine, the woman was shot through the flames, and continued the film through to the end. Damme, with that scene of not being able to see, used it 3 times. Tough history, no plot, no good pictures, no nexus. A trash. Damme did a bad job with this movie, it was a very close career.

REVIEW - BLACK WATER

2 of the most famous action / martial arts stars team up for this, what promises to be an all action 90+ minutes of fights.

But........

The film credits for the 2 stars in this film are impressive beyond belief, with every film from Rocky to Timecop being a fight and action master class, unfortunately this film doesn't even come close to any of the previous films made by Van Damned or Lungdren.

In fact the action doesn't even really start until an hour into the film.

Most disappointing of all was the poor screen time Lungdren had, only really coming into the mildly interesting story very late into the film itself.

Without trying to give too much away, correct me if I and wrong, but a submarine is basically a long tin can which goes underwear and usually comprises of one central long corridor with rooms to the bow, stern, port and starboard.

The sheer amount of gun fire being exchanged! Enough said.

Mildly interesting story, poor action, shoddy submarine and honestly not their best by far.

Rating 4 out of 10

Everything about this movie is grade C, from props, sets, direction, story, action etc. If anything it is trying to bring Van Damme back to life but unfortunately there is not much of that left in him. The guy can hardly move now and so should avoid attempting to relive his past. Unrealistic shootouts and action scenes seal the fate of this movie.
