Anyone seen it? I've just finished watching it and thought it was pretty impressive.

It's out?

I'm so excited by it. It looks amazing.

It's available from ("All good import DVD retailers and amazon from the 2nd of Feb" - Ed) with subtitles available from Opensubtitles.org

It's very clever and I hope it renews Van Damme's career into better films.

It's most definitely not an action film though, it's a clever drama. Definitely worth watching.

I really liked it as well, it has a few lulls but I like how you get the public's viewpoint of the event and then van dammes. Also great how it plays with what you expect from a van damme film, especially that end part.

It got mentioned in passing at the end of Mark Kermode's review section on Five Live last week.

"I'm looking forward to seeing JCVD. Apparently it's a bit of a departure for him."
"In what way?"
"In that it's good."

I might check this out. Along with Steven Segal Van Damme is someone else who I have never managed to sit through a whole one of his films.

Wanking for 90 minutes is quite a feat, yes.
