Sometimes I can't understand IMDB ratings. How this movie has a 5.9 (by the time of writing) and mostly 7 and up reviews baffles me. I can understand the other way around with studios messing with the ratings, but this? This is a genuinely good movie, very well directed, with some standout fight scenes and a very solid acting job by JCVD himself. Granted, the story is a bit cliched, but the execution is so good that you can forgive some lack of originality in the screenplay. This is a very dry, raw and intense watching experience and I am always rooting for a return to form from the Muscles from Brussels, and it seems that from time to time he gets out of STV hell to deliver a solid action movie. This is one of those times. Bravo.
