Yes, Van Damme Can Act!
Van Damme plays two roles in this film and does so with believability and suprising talent for a martial arts/action hero. For a bogus plot it is quite believable if that makes any sense :-) This may be his finest performance yet. If you at all liked timecop you will likely enjoy this. Lots of action throughout. Rooker is a total [...]--typical cop type character that was enjoyable to hate throughout the film and in some ways you will like the serial killer (The Torch) better than Rooker's character (although he does ultimtely grow in to a more likeably character as the story progresses), but the true hero and the guy to root for is the serial killer's clone played by Van Damme with a buzz cut. Clone Van Damme displays a child's innocence, a man's ability to choose right over wrong, and a swift kick to the arse to back up the side of the fense he ultimately chooses to stand on. Watch it!!!!!!
