underated why 4.8
everybody rate it 10 it should be in top 260
shareI thought it was pretty good. But, people will have their own say of the movie.
shareAgreed, it's at least a 7/10. Probably got Low ratings from all the idiots who only wants to see Van Damme dish out karate kicks and say cheesy one-liners. This was one of his better acting jobs BEFORE he surprised the world by his acting in JCVD!

I have to say this movie is pretty damn fantastic. I'm glad I stumbled upon it on TV and it was just starting.
At first I was going to dismiss it as a joke because Van Damme but the setting caught my eye and I was mesmerized all the way through.
Everything about this movie is pretty good, even Van Damme's acting.
5.4 now. Yay!
shareThis is my favorite non-martial arts JCVD film. It's a solid 7, the current 5.5 is still way too low. I think that the fact that it was a new style of film for Van Damme, it was received poorly by his fans, for no martial arts. When I first rented this from the video rental store (remember those?), as a fan of his, I was a bit disappointed that it wasn't a traditional Van Damme movie. In 1998, I probably would have rated it a 4 or 5, because it was hard to come to grips with the fact that he wasn't going to be doing the same kind of movies any more.
After I came to accept JCVD as a DTV action movie star, I really came to appreciate Legionnaire more and more. I really, really like the supporting cast, Steven Berkoff especially, what a great antagonist.
