Couldn't agree more Jack.... keep in mind though, here in the US, we've probably been overdosed with JCVD films, including Bloodsport.
In fact, Bloodsport was just in rotation in my area last week. 2 channels, 6 showtimes, over 4 days. Yeah, I watched parts of it, because bad acting aside, it is a positive movie.

Apparently, its based on a true story. Frank Dux was an American martial artist and the movie is based on one of his tournaments ...

I like the film but I think it has some really bad acting in it and as for the continual repetitive scenes of the same kick done to death, cheesy Chinese style, they got boring very quickly.
I still enjoy the film though

JCVD, like it not, churned out some AWESOME action movies in his heyday, and shit the movie JCVD actually showed he was a good actor, whodathunkit

However I'll say if people are looking to old JCVD, Stallone or Arnold flicks for "good acting" they are barking up the wrong tree! |
