Pound of Flesh (2015)
In China to donate his kidney to his dying niece, Van Damme, a former black-ops agent, awakes the day before the operation to find he is the latest victim of organ theft. Stitched up, JCVD descends from his posh hotel in search of his stolen kidney and carves a blood-soaked path through the darkest corners of the city brothels, fight clubs, back-alley black markets, and elite billionaire estates. The clock is ticking for his niece and with each step he loses blood.
Decent kick ass actioner with a plot less ludicrous than it sounds. No okay, i'm clearly lying there, it's completely ludicrous but a hell of a lot of fun. If the idea of JCVD doing the splits getting dragged along by a car - one foot through the drivers window, the other on the ground - fills you with joy then Pound of Flesh is for you.
I thought it was great.
