Not much I can really add to what others have said. The story is pretty formulaic, but the action sequences are smart as well as the fight choreography.
There's not really any dull moments per say, but perhaps it could've been edited and shorted to 1 and a half hours. The only other thing is I think the opening scene was the best and probably not a good idea to lead with it. It sets the expectation for the actions in the rest of the film, which did not really measure up. Don't get me wrong, they're still good, but just not on par with the opening scene.
The climax scene is decent, some good smart moves, but when we watch a Van Damme film, we really want to watch him kick butt in hand to hand combat, not shooting a bazooka.
7/10 - decent one time watch.
