I thought it was pretty good. But, people will have their own say of the movie.

Agreed, 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!

This 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.
