Maximum Risk
This was still on the good side of the Van Damme movies. It actually improves with every watch. I've seen it about 4 times now and I've liked it more with each viewing. Natasha Henstridge is really one sexy woman, and Van Damme is buff as hell here. The action is good (by Ringo Lam) and the story is interesting. It all plays out well. Van Damme is used to playing himself twice in movies (Double Impact, Replicant, The Order, Maximum Risk, and Time Cop) but here he does a good job.
There's some great scenes. One of them takes place in a sauna. Van Damme and the big Russian dude are fighting in only towels, and then the elevator scene. The scene at the end in the butchers is also good.
