JCVD (2008) - ♦♦♦♦

Directed by - Mabrouk El Mechri

Written by - Mabrouk El Mechri, Frédéric Benudis, Frédéric Taddei, Vincent Ravalec, Christophe Turpin

Starring - Jean-Claude Van Damme

"International film star Jean Claude Van Damme in the middle of a crisis as he loses his film roles to Steven Segal and a custody battle of his young daughter, ends up caught in the middle of a real life bank robber. With this film, Van Damme redeems a career of brainless action film, as his surprisingly compelling performance in this film is as heartfelt, genuine and self aware as they come. Furthermore, the film is very entertaining thanks to El Mechri's exciting storytelling ways that skilfully blend the funny moments with the sad and melancholic ones."

Drama, Belgium/Luxembourg/France
