Subject: RE: BS: Jean-Claude Van Damme
ok..now you're becoming familiar with the best and worst of Jean-Claude Van Damme movies..

..all very enjoyable, no matter how bad, for so many different reasons..

You might want to check out "JCVD" (2008)

Mr VD's surprisingly sublime 'post modernist' 'Art-House' comedy masterpiece

where he plays a character named JCVD,
an ageing movie action hero who's career is in serious decline..

"Between his tax problems and his legal battle with his wife for the custody of his daughter, these are hard times for the action movie star who finds that even Steven Seagal has pinched a role from him! In JCVD, Jean-Claude Van Damme returns to the country of his birth to seek the peace and tranquility he can no longer enjoy in the United States."

"Washed-up, fighting bankruptcy and caught in the midst of a desperate struggle to win his daughter back from the jaws of a bitter custody battle, Van Damme unwittingly becomes embroiled in a dangerous bank robbery led by a gang of armed and violent criminals.
Trapped inside, Van Damme is framed for the robbery and the murder of innocent hostages. Now he must win the approval of the crowd as well as the trust of the police if he is to survive this deadly heist!

With a killer mix of action, murder, mayhem and no shortage of laughs JCVD delivers with the impact of a roundhouse kick to the face! Van Damme is back and this time he's taking no prisoners!"


seriously.. it's excellent !!!!
