Synopsis: A troubled young girl who gets by in life by

Synopsis: When a former French soldier (Van Damme) is murdered, his kickboxing
twin brother police inspector, Alain Moreau, infiltrates the Russian mob in
order to see justice meted out -- as painfully as possible. A slimmed-down
Jean-Claude Van Damme is surprisingly effective as the lead(s), but the real
star here is gritty Hong Kong director Ringo Lam (probably best known for City
on Fire, the film that inspired Quentin Tarantino's Reservoir Dogs), who makes
a lethal American debut with this hard-edged, convoluted film, which uses the
identical-sibling gimmick to considerably darker effect than the goofball
Double Impact. Some incredible stunt work and a terrifically ruthless final
reel make this underrated action film a winner, although fans of Species may
be somewhat disappointed that costar Natasha Henstridge never fully displays
the assets that made her famous. -- Andrew Wright
