Until Death

another direct to video Van Damme flick.

more and more i have to say - i like this guy.
the movies he's in arent brilliant - but they arent bad - he does give a decent performance.

he's specializing in 'burned out tortured soul' roles right now - but he does it well.

i'd have to say - he's probably the best acting 'traditional action hero' out there.

i'd be suprised if he doesn't break into the mainstream again..if a decent director sees his potential and puts him in something good ... even in a secondary role.

yeah, Until Death was pretty god. sure as hell couldn't have lived up to the godliness that was Wake of Death, but it was good. Van Damme is back in the game these days.

Hopefully it'll happen, I wouldn't be suprised especially after the new Rambo flick.
I'd love to see action cinema return to the heyday of the 80s an early 90s.
I'll have to check that one out. I thought Wake Of Death was really good.
Have you seen Death Warrant? Watched that again for the first time in years a week or so back. Really cool apart from some of the horribly dated music. Great prison flick meets undercover cop kinda deal. Great fun!

Good, mindless action fun.

Ultimate Avengers: The Movie

I really enjoyed this one....they really did a good job with the characters. Kind of wish we would have seen more of Thor though - his fight with the Hulk was pretty much the best part of the show.

I'll have to grab the rest of these animated Marvel flicks...

Yeah.....I thought Ultimate Avengers--The Movie was really good too. I thought it moved a little too fast, and might have felt more like a "movie" with a pace that was just a touch slower. But it's good.

That's the one where the last half hour was them fighting Hulk, right? I liked that one.
