neutral · AI labelView post →TRIVIA: 'Replicant' was Jean-Claude Van Damme's 4th film where he plays a dual role after 'Double Impact' (1991), 'Timecop' (1994), and 'Maximum Risk' (1996). In the same year as ‘Replicant’ he played dual roles for the 5th time as two characters from different time periods in 'The Order'. (IMDB) 🖤

positive · AI labelView post →Just watched a bunch of Jean Claude Van Damme movie trailers. Lemme tell ya, the Maximum Risk trailer is getting my ass in the fucking seat
positive · AI labelView post →I also didn't really think about this, but this is another film where Van Damme plays a double role; except this is him in the past and the present (or present and future). But there are other films, too: Maximum Risk (1996), Replicant (2001) and In Hell (2003) screenrant.com/jean-claude-...
neutral · AI labelView post →It's a shame that Street Fighter is likely Jean Claude Van Damme's most widely viewed performance and it's also his worst. I love it but it did so much damage to his career. If it's your only Van Damme movie you've seen please watch Hard Target, Maximum Risk, or JCVD.
positive · AI labelView post →Great rating. underrated. got mixed reception. probably the last fun movie Van Damme ever made. Maximum Risk was fine. gotta rewatch that though.
neutral · AI labelView post →#Filmsky #MovieChallenge First watch of Maximum Risk. Standard Van Damme film, nothing ground breaking or particularly well done but perfect when you feel like a remove brain, just watch might. 5/10

positive · AI labelView post →there are definitely times I want something on but I'm doing something else on the computer and don't really want to put all my attention on TV! just yesterday I opted for the lesser JCVD twin movie Maximum Risk for this very purpose
neutral · AI labelView post →Maximum Risk. It feels less like a Van Damme movie and more like a solid thriller that happens to feature Van Damme.

positive · AI labelView post →Ringo Lam's Maximum Risk is probably the one Jean-Claude Van Damme film I'd describe as Hitchcockian. It's got doppelgangers, assumed/mistaken identities, a scene involving a train, and a snippet of voyeurism.

positive · AI labelView post →Will Smith's Gemini Man would have been a perfect comeback movie for Jean-Claude Van Damme given the number of movies that he's done where there's two of him - Double Impact, Timecop, Maximum Risk and Replicant. Under more favourable circumstances, The One could have starred JCVD instead of Jet Li.
