Review of JCVD (2008) by Al S — 08 Oct 2009
This film shows the action star in a way we havent seen him before. Not as a hero but as a regular broken down man with problems, issues, dept and emotions. A great drama that strips the character down to being seen as a very vulnerable and scared man, Van Damme portrays it beautifully.
Jean Claude Van Damme gives a riveting tour de force performance, he can actually act and what a hell of a amasing portrayel. A rough, nakedly emotional, remarkable, muscle stripping and very human performance.
If he was ever gonna get an Oscar Nomination for best actor, this would be the tickett. A breathtaking, shattering and powerful film. A surprise gem. It's moving, groundbreaking, stunning and exhilerating.
A teriffic and superbly original film thats well-crafted and incrediably well-performend. A pure knockout. It shines with humanity and brute force. An outstanding, funny, knowing and kick ass film that has a great style.
