This Movie was my type i understand Dolph Lundgren hasn't done much in movie in action he has done a lot action in this movie but not as van damme does, i understand that's dissportant and their are some plot holes in movie witch i don't want to spoil as bad, this was a lot of action and kick ass, Storyline is a bit messy and that is mostly What drawed me away from the movie from time to time, it didn't make me to hate movie it never did, movie didn't block it's own way. Lundgren has a good role but is not in the movie enough, as Van Damme he was their, not's like their was twist where Lundgren Character turns out to be Bad Guy if that does i would have called it Universal Soldier Black Water. i understand this movie has low rating got bit dissportant from people just because movie got low rating doesn't mean reviews and people will stop you to watch this ! Anybody to watch This i actually Think you should if you are a fan of these two. Its still great fun to see your childhood heroes onscreen, a lot kickass action, and yes Van Damme and Lundgren do they do team up each another. doesn't mean it's not enjoyable as an action flick, especially if you're a fan of Van Damme or Lundgren. But it has some painful flaws that actively hurt the viewing experience and in no way does it live up to the very hype concept. It's mysterious and has a slight horror-aspect to it, kind of like Pound of Flesh with Van Damme. But it's also amusing thanks to Lundgren's character, which was obviously a role written with him in mind. And above all it gets you pumped for a good action flick with two icons. Are JCVD and Lundgren going to have to escape an under water jail? Is this going to be Death Warrant meets Under Siege meets The Expendables? i was watching this with friends i was saying nothing like Expendables you need a ensemble cast for that. but i could say it's like Escape Plan Meets Under Siege because Stallone gets kidnapped and he was sent in prison and he met Schwarzenegger character got locked up in prison, well in this it's not about them Escaping nope that's what it's about that's in it but that's not what story is involved, but movie is not about Escape Plan as in this Van Damme and Lundgren are locked in Submachine. Wheeler wakes up in Submachine which is a flashback to know how Wheeler ended up where he is they have to it's more about story that follows Scott Wheeler (Jean Claude Van Damme) is a CIA agent looking for a leak in the CIA along with his partner Melissa (Courtney B Turk) she is a villain chick actress know for Vice, Heist AKA Bus 657. by using a USB drive that needs two components to activate. Wheeler is captured and drugged by Agent Ferris (Patrick Kilpatrick) now he appears in a lot action movies in 80's and 90's like Death Warrant, Under Siege 2, Eraser, Last Man Standing, he has appeared over million action movie cameo's Ferries believes Wheeler is responsible for the deaths of his fellow CIA agents, Agent Rhodes (Al Sapienza) believes Wheeler is innocent. after all hell breaks lose you have another actress (Jasmine Waltz) as Cassie Taylor not known much in movies National Lampoon's TV: The Movie. then Rhodes is now main villain in movie he wants drive as well i am like this movie is twisting a lot of things this movie twist's a lot things, then Wheeler is teaming up with Cassie for bit then that's when (Dolph Lundgren) Marco is in all movie kicking ass in movie with Van Damme in action with Cassie witch i liked and yes and always Kris Van Damme in movie as villain, always has fight scenes each another. in all movie they killing bad guys founding main villain they were funny moments where Marco deceiving Rhodes, now rest of movie their are twist after that Melissa is now Villain in movie i wanted to see Cassie and Melissa to have fight scene together girl fight, there are cool action moments, witch i am not going to spoil.
You could blame the director he hasn't made much action and another thing is there some things in movie never explained, the cast, or whoever in charge of casting, or the set. But I think we should just blame the budget. If this had been a big budget film the action scenes, the cast, Just Like with Skin Trade Dolph Lundgren and Tony Jaa and all those aspects would have been way better. The movie does have some good moments, and it's in these moments that you feel what this movie should have been. What this movie needs? 1: Re-writing of the scenes and especially the action scenes. I KNOW Van Damme and Lundgren has still got it. but i wish movie it could have been bigger budget, well well made, story needs to be fixed a lot more because their are some moments it's in movie never explained sadly i wished it could be better budget, like skin trade, more and more crazy fun action in movie their is but i wished it could be better, better director, better script writers, someone who could write better who can make plot make more sense that's what it needs to be involved but hey it's what it is how movie is made i loved movie a lot of fun it's van damme and lundgren together again, story plot twist is good but their are moments where it could got more lundgren more of longer movie, more of crazy action i wished this directed buy director from Skin Trade. ignore the reviews just because it got bad reviews and it got so much crap doesn't you expect their opinions i am not forcing you to watch movie, i am not doing that if your die hard fan of action and Van Damme and Lundgren in one movie like Universal Soldier again then their you go end of day you make choice it's not really baddest movie like Uwe Boll movies like 1.0, this movie wasn't that bad as Uwe Boll movies, i am not saying Uwe is involved i am just saying give it look you never know you might like it or not what so ever but reviews are wrong they are not right all time, because reviews is just say's different things if you watch this you will end up liking it or you love it. now i didn't love this movie just because van damme and lundgren and action, movie has a lot great twist plots, a lot of fun, it's decent fun movie, i like how Van Damme and Lundgren are team it's different style not villains like Universal soldier, but movie is enjoyable i loved it 10.10 their's not much to say or else i will spoil it or else i have to spoil it you won't need to watch it, you need to watch it, it's worth it !

Dolph Lundgren & a very old version of Van Damme, what did you expect. A "B" movie with a bunch of guys who thought they always made A- movies in their youth. The plot is predictable, Van Damme puts them down, but he has to hit them hard and twice to get it done this time, it's not like in his youth, when people fell down before he hit them. The actor who plays the FBI agent, plays it very well, like a professional, but he dies early in the movie. Al Spinoza, plays good (I saw him in Ascension) as always, in the bad guy role and that pretty sum all of it. I gave it a 4 , for encouragement.
