Review of Enemies Closer (2013) by Al S — 04 Mar 2014
A slick, stylish and adrenaline-pumping action knockout. A solid, hard-hitting, and well-crafted fast-paced action-thriller. It's highly entertaining, constantly thrilling and thoroughly engaging. An old-school and straight forward action film that hits all the right notes.
Director, Peter Hyams crafts a quick-moving, smart, straight-up and riveting movie that fills the eighty minute void just fine and adds a nice little plot twist. The action scenes are tough and well-done and has some pretty great performances.
Tom Everett Scott and Orlando Jones are terrific. Jones and Scott have some good character moments and prove to be more than a passable match for Van Damme. Jean-Claude Van Damme is sensational, he gives a great and nutty villainous performance, one of his best roles and performances in some time.
It's great to see Van Damme and one of his favorite directors again doing what they do best.
