Knock Off. 1998.

In Hong Kong a fashion designer teams up with a C.I.A. agent to find who is selling counterfeit clothes rigged with small explosives.

Van Damme teams up with Rob Shneider in this action packed comedy, I didn't think much of it back in the day and thought i'd give it another try, I was half expecting it to be a serious film but after a second viewing it's just goofy entertainment with some good laughs and fight scenes. Tsui Hark's direction in the film is always good to see and knows how to capture the sequences he wants. Both lead actors don't outshine each other but do try to see who can enter the comedy parts more.
