Van Damme's best
Even though it's been almost twenty years since this film came out, it's still a classic right up there with Enter the Dragon. Van Damme plays Frank Dux, an american soldier competing in the Kumite, a little-known but controversial martial arts competition where the best fighters in the world gather to test their skills upon each other. Frank must not only put his skills to test against some of the most fearsome opponents in the world but also against his own personal fears and doubts about why he's there in the first place.Van Damme is superb and he's never looked better. I know there was criticism about what an exhibitionist he can be, especially with his body, but if you worked for years toning and sculpting it, why not show it off? A true classic.
