When I was a kid, I was a huge fan of Jean-Claude Van Damme and I saw all the movies he made at the beginning of his career. Eventually, at around 14 years old, I started to get interested in other kind of movies and I discovered that his movies were not so good after all. However, afterwards, he did make a few movies that seemed to be decent, like this one, so I was really eager to check it out. ... read more

BradWesley123's Movie Journal- May 2019 (38 movies items)

" Starz- 1hr. 50min First Viewing Sudden Death is Die Hard in a hockey arena. There's, really, no more accurate description than that, because that's what it is.

It's all solidly handled by director Pe"

"17.6. Terroristit hyökkäävät salaa Stanley Cup -finaalien seiskapeliin kiristääkseen rahaa varapresidentiltä. Palotarkastajana työskenteleva Van Damme estää suunnitelman todistaakseen lapsilleen, että kyllä lamppuja työkseen vaihtava faijakin voi olla cool. Van Dammen poika on aivan helvetin näreissään luuserifaijansa työnkuvasta, vaikka tyyppi juuri raahasi kakaransa ratkaisevaan finaalipeliin (liput halvimmillaan noin 1500 dollaria kipale) ja vei lapset 20 minuuttia ennen ott"
