Have you all gone mad? Did we watch the same movie?..I want 94 minutes of my life back! This movie was so BAD and Boooooooooooring I almost flung myself off my balcony. It tried to hard to be "artsy" and failed, then it tried to be dramatic, which it also failed, and the few moments of humor were not intended to be humorous. I never really was a fan of JCVD but at the end of that movie I hoped the whole bank/postal office (wtf?) would blow up and everyone especially JCVD would blow up in flames..what a ridiculous piece of crap! I'm glad I didn't actually shell out the 1.99 to rent this mess of a movie. Oh noooooooooo!! Have you all gone mad? Did we watch the same movie?..I want 94 minutes of my life back!

This movie is gonna win the Oscar®...It is getting the best movie reviews (Grade: A) allover the internet, TV shows and newspapers. I have always said that Jean-Claude Van Damme is a good actor - not only a great fighter with the Muscles from Brussels. Oh, my God!

I think what you've got to do is get as many friends together as you can for a VanDamme marathon with JCVD to cap it off. And Brad, I'd throw in a third moment with the technically amazing opener and the one-on-one. The cigarette bit is sure to make any movie fan smile, maybe not heart of the story but definitely tone of the film.
