Mr Van Damme, I insist you make another Street Fighter or Hard Target. To be honest, I don't think this movie accomplish anything, but to disappoint Van Dammes fans. So they hired Van Damme to get some extra viewers and voilà! A big hit and more Van Damme-fans! Thats what they thought.
But on the other hand, if they would have hired somebody else to have the leading part, I don't think that anyone would be interested. It is just so obvious that Van Damme don't belong in this movie. I'm not trying to be a racist or so, but I take the plot as a failed attempt to attract the black audience. Van Damme has to act as a bodyguard to a boxer who is threatened by a rapper, who just got out of prison. I'm not one of them, but I do think that they want the exact same thing today. 10-20 years ago, it was Sci Fi and karate the Van Damme-fans wanted. It don't get any better when the plot is a ridiculous, laughable attempt to bring Van Damme into the "modern" world. Either Van Damme was forced to act in this movie or he has grave economical problems.
Van Damme have never been a great actor, but this film takes the goddamn price! He seems bored throughout the entire movie, even in the fight scenes, where he usually seems engaged.
