Let's vote 10 in Second In Command! Please!


We cannot allow that the note of the film lowers, if you are really fan of Van Damme vote 10 in the film!

The film deserves note 7!

reply

No no no...IMDB has weighted average system and if everybody is giving 10, it only makes things worse. Vote just like you do with other movies: give the vote you think this film deserves! I gave 6/10.

Its because of this kind of stupid fans that van damme hasnt got any movie with a 6.0+ rating. The rating you see is not the arithmetic mean, it's the WEIGHTED AVERGAGE. Instead of a 10 give it a 7.

reply

HELL NO. THE MOVIE SUCKS SO BAD. I WILL VOTE AWFULLLL.

reply

I'm a huge Van Damme fan but lets face it, the movie sucked and it hurts me to say that.

reply

I know, I'm also a fan and it sucked. But I'll always support JCVD:P

reply

A typical 6 movie.....
Have som good elements have some bad.....

reply

I haven't seen it yet, and probably never will, but I'd gladly give it a 1 just to counter the threadstarters 10. Jean Claude Van Damn he sucks :/ (IMO ofc.)

when in doubt, faint.

best movie since the replicant isnt saying much. i always loved van damme since i was 8 and watched A.W.O.L, but Second in command wasn't even a real film. it was like a bad joke or something. ive never been bored watching a van damme film before but recently, with derailed, wake of death, and second in command, JC is really pushing it. you have to aim for his strengths when making JC film. 'Nowhere to run' is good example cause he's an outsider with a strange accent. He looks suspicious all the time which suits him. and he delivers lines like, 'im the parking attendent and you're bothering my customers' - my all time favourite line. Where have the van damme lines been recently. in replicant - his last real sort of movie - he played a retard who said nothing. the best we got in wake of death was, 'where's my wife'. the only glimmer of hope for van damme and his fans was 'in hell' which was classic JC. Good fighting where van damme's the underdog - there has never been a better underdog than van damme - and other cool characters that made the eintire film. if this is the end for van damme then il always remember lines like 'anything else you want to tell me, like maybe i own a grocery store in Zimbabwe?

Yes Farooqn Second In Command is a very good movie, these guys are *beep* crazy.

reply

Thanks Paulista

I think these guys are all INSANE!

reply

It's because of idiots like you that I've just bought this trash.

I love Van Damme but this movie deserves no more than 3, and that's being generous!!

reply

The movie sucked with a capital "S". The plot was dull. it was easy to figure out the generals army when they and the americans were going to meet at the same time and the rebel troops looked more like they were all on a suicide mission rather then a takeover. I give this movie a 2/10 only because of some halfway descent action giving no credit to Van Damme. He had what, maybe 2 small action scenes that they had to slow down to make them look like they lasted longer. Not the Van Damme I'm accustomed to seeing. I guess he's getting too old to do these kind of movies anymore. Very dissapointed...

personally..I think this movie was a joke..it was utter trash!

reply

Special recognition should be extended to Jean-Claude-Van-Damme for his performance. There's no doubt Jean-Claude-Van-Damme made 3 or 4 stinkers(derailed), but when he was virtual unknown in the 80's he knew how to make a rock solid fighting film.

Perhaps one of the reasons many people dislike Second In Command are expectations. If you're expecting Van-Damme with Blazing Guns, Hardcore Kicking and Funny Lines you will be disappointed.

Second In Command is one of those movies that receive a good deal of comments and mockery from critics. I'm a bit upset at why so many love to hate Van-Damme and his movies. Why watch a movie, of a actor that critics don't like?
For example i don't like watching Tom Cruise's movies, but i don't go out to rent it, watch it, and then talk bad about him.

Second In Command was never intended to be a work of art, but a good B-Movie.
This is one of those low budget B-Movies that deserves at least a 6/10.
As a true Van-Damme loyal fan forever, i'm giving Van-Damme my full support always.

reply

i think it was pretty descent! why all these negative reviews. it has everything for a good action movie:nice shoot-outs, brutal fights, and good acting from vandamme. let's hope he keeps doing movies like this one with more fights and a bigger budget.

To respond to the person talking about Tom Cruise movies I say. Van Damme jsut didn't fit into the role, it wasn't him at all really it was more how the storyline was constructed. It was ridiculous, absolutely ridiculous. They made it look like attacking another nation sending a strike team of Apaches was nothing. Wee're the U.S. we can go into any bloody nation we want have beautiful helix misslies flying right above the embassy and watch as the nation's army crumbles?

reply

This movie deserves at least an 8 out of 10.
I challenge all of you anti vandammes. Go ahead if you prove me wrong.
Now all you suckers will say no!
Sorry its a big (YES) from my side not as a Van Damme fan but as a Critic.

MOVIE ANALYSIS.
BEHIND THE SCENES
------------------
CAMERA WORK **** Outa *****
CGI *** Outa *****
SCRIPT *** Outa *****
EDITING **** Outa *****
SOUND ***** Outa *****
STUNTS **** Outa *****

TOTAL 23/30 = 76.6% THATS AN A POSITIVE RESULT.

INSIDE THE SCENES
------------------
ACTING **** Outa *****
STORY *** Outa *****
THRILL **** Outa *****
SUSPENSE ***** Outa *****
DRAMA **** Outa *****
TEMPO *** Outa *****

TOTAL 23/30 = 76.6% THATS AN A POSITIVE RESULT.

SO if ou even disagree with my analysis your votes may differ a little bit but not lesser than 20-20 in both departments.

THE PROBLEM WITH THE MOVIE WAS ONLY MARKETING .
IF THIS MOVIE COULD GET ENOUGH TO HAVE A MAMBO JAMBO MARKETING IT COULD BE A SUPER HIT.

Its subjective

reply

I would give it a 6.I am a die-hard Van Damme fan.But I will NOT say its good for blind reason.

The Good:Van Damme gives a decent acting job.He is way more controlled.Action-wise.the Movies delivered for me.It built some tension and suspense without following the Usual cliche.Decent cast also.

The Bad:The CGI was not great.Continuity issues.But nowhere near as bad as Derailed.

But I will take Second in Command over the Detonator and Mercenary for Justice any day.Bring on the Hard Corps,and Til Death.

Detonator was a good idea,undone by a low-budget;As well as a lazy star.Leave Wesley,while you Still can.

MFJ was in my book a little better than garbage like Submerged,Today you die,and Black Dawn.They were not Fun like his earlier ones and made me flinch at how bad they were.It was a slight step up bring on the Prince of Pistols.

Some people never go crazy. What truly horrible lives they must lead.

i kind of relieved people giving this a stupid score, i can now understand the 5.3 rating, some people doing the same thing with a my little pony movie i think its now up to 8.2 or something.

I was thinking 5.3 that can't be right?

well keep trying might get it on the 250, lol

reply

How can someone give this movie a full 10 points? There has to be really something wrong with your brain.

Anyways, this movie deserves at highest a 6 voting (imho), but I'm giving it a 5.
