I have admired Van Damme since the eighties and even formed a JCVD appreciation society back in college... I'm not gay but his martial arts did inspire us to take it up. Obviously with his advancing years, probably better to have him choreographing behind the camera, but hey ho. From a technical perspective the editing and direction was actually quite sharp for a movie of this budget. Action scenes are tight, well controlled, well lit, and closeup shots are used to avoid too much focus on JC's slowing reflexes. No infamous full split in this movie guys 😂
Storyline has been done many times before, in fact Equaliser 3 most recently comes to mind. This time the hero kicks ass with his daughter assisting and kicking nearly as much ass 😉. Particularly meaningful to me as I saw this on the plane during my first dad daughter trip away. Can definitely imagine me and my daughter taking out the bad guys and killing em all - together.
If you like Van Damm, just watch it for action's sake.
