33 of 33 · most liked firstThere was a time when Van Damme made genuinely fun, entertaining flicks. I dropped out around the time of Death Warrant, but man... Double Impact was a hell of a good time. So stupid. So good. Seeing Van Damme try to act like a tough gangster guy was hilarious and precious.

Great story, the location has some serious vibes, awesome supporting cast, and actual nuanced take on race relations in prison. Another winner for the Muscles from Brussels!
positive · AI labelView post →Rewatch complete of Nu Image’s Death Warrant. Possibly David Bradley’s best overall performance but it’s Yuji Okumoto who steals the movie. Tons of hard hitting fights and crazy opening shootout and absolutely bonkers ending. Dual wielding with limited reloading can’t ask for more. Pure DTV goodness

neutral · AI labelView post →Watching DEATH WARRANT (1990) starring Jean-Claude Van Damme, written by David S. Goyer, directed by Deran Sarafian. The film starts STRONG for me with this exchange: JCVD-"I'm going in." LAPD-"You can't...it's against protocol, Burke. This isn't CANADA...we have procedures here!" 🤣

neutral · AI labelView post →Ex Street cop. Regret it. Lawyers fact check me. Death Warrant is a movie with Jean Claude Van Damme. An Execution warrant is provided after a person is found guilty and condemned to the death penalty. Its the piece of paper that says "Hey they are to be executed 60 days from now." That's it.

positive · AI labelView post →The action movie podcast I really like covered it today, and it inspired me to watch it again. I watched Death Warrant over the summer and it is exactly as silly as I remember from when I watched it as a kid.
neutral · AI labelView post →#JeanClaudeVanDamme spin-kicks his way through Death Warrant, a cliche of a prison movie which leaves you wondering if 80s Seagal might have been the better choice. This US only #4KUHD release features a new 4K 16-Bit restoration from the camera negative. www.avforums.com/reviews/deat... #FilmSky

neutral · AI labelView post →oh! that's funny. I had to make one because I couldn't remember that I had already watched a Jean Claude movie twice (Death Warrant), so its helpful in that regard lol
neutral · AI labelView post →It's only been a week or two since watching Black Eagle and I have already developed a nostalgic fondness for it. But it's a bad movie that I will watch again and go 'Yes, still bad'. Death Warrant and Lionheart rip though.
positive · AI labelView post →This movie is great! Hope you enjoy it Clinton! I just grabbed it as part of a three disc collection with Death Warrant (which rules) and Black Eagle (which sucks).
positive · AI labelView post →Death Warrant ★★½ Early career VanDamme has the emotional range of a teaspoon, but this is a passable enough prison set action movie, with JCVD playing a mountie undercover to discover why so many prisoners are getting murdered....

neutral · AI labelView post →Death Warrant is a super natural undercover cop prison martial arts movie. Which I would say is an underserved genre of movie.
neutral · AI labelView post →Slop movie of the night baby Jean Claude Van Damn in Death Warrant
negative · AI labelView post →just watched Death Warrant for the first time and i'm obsessed with the idea it's actually a vampire film, there's so much setup for it. JCVD even gets an echo effect on his attacks at one point, like he's awakening his belmont powers. the film is so much better now that i have this theory.
positive · AI labelView post →Need more action/horror hybrids. Not talking like "Aliens" I mean like Death Warrant where it's mostly a JCVD kickboxing flick except it's bookended with him having to fight a literal slasher movie villain.
