The film also includes his now famous one take, 6 minute monologue to camera about his life, choices and mistakes he's made.

I really enjoyed this...the monologue scene is amazing stuff, JCVD acts his little kick boxing socks off in those 6 minutes and shows what a great actor he has the potential to be if he could/wanted to escape the direct to dvd market.

Ok, here are my top 10 JCVD films (in no particular order)....

Bloodsport
Kickboxer
Hard Target
Timecop
Universal Soldier
Sudden Death
Maximum Risk
JCVD
Wake Of Death
Replicant/universal Soldier: Day Of Reckoning

Yeah technically that's 11, but I had a hard choice even getting those ones. Also really like Nowhere To Run, The Quest, Double Impact, Death Warrant and Lionheart). Hell, I love them all!

What's the one where he plays a smackhead cop? I quite enjoyed that one, then again like big Stevie Seagal's films, I tend to enjoy all of JCVD's films.

Until Death. Actually 2 versions of that film exist. The US version has a different ending from the version released in Europe.

Ze German BD is well worth picking up.

It is indeed. Nice reversible cover with the original poster artwork too. And got to love the red case.

Here's the teaser poster for The Muscles From Brussels latest, Pound Of Flesh.

I watched Enemies Closer earlier very enjoyable and Van Damme does a great job as the bad guy with some questionable hair

Looks like Van Damme will be in the new Kickboxer remake. I hope this is yet another step back into bigger films with a cinema release . Fingers crossed its not going to be a failure because he has made some great films recently.

Cant comment on Welcome to the Jungle i have not seen it .

New teaser for Pound of Flesh:

By the way, how do you embed a video here? I've seen others do it.
