NATO operative Jacques Kristoff (Jean-Claude Van Damme) is summoned into action—on his birthday, no less—to track down Galina Konstantin (Laura Harring), who has stolen an extremely valuable and dangerous top-secret container from the Slovakian Government. Finding Galina doesn’t take long, and Jacques must wrap up the mission by returning Galina and the contraband to his superiors by train. Things seem to be going smoothly as Jacques and Galina board the train posing as a couple, but soon all hell breaks loose.

Viewing Notes
JCVD RIDES A FUCKING MOTORCYCLE ON TOP OF A MOVING TRAIN!!
So this is not a good movie. Laughable actually. But I enjoyed this one more than most of Van Damme’s other ‘00s output. Maybe because it knows what it is and just goes for it. So ridiculous but so damn entertaining as it continues to get more preposterous as it rolls along. Immediately out of the gate it wants us to believe that Laura Harring is a badass thief. Hahahahahaha!
Seriously I expected this to be terrible (it is) but not in such a delightful way. So cornball but I dig it. Had I known Laura Harring was in this I definitely would’ve bumped it in my JCVD project.
