Editorial Reviews

Amazon.co.uk Review
Jean-Claude Van Damme, aka "the Muscles from Brussels", has sought to revitalise his flagging career by working with the most adrenalised directors from Hong Kong action films. His first such effort was this, the umpteenth remake of The Most Dangerous Game, which teamed him with Hong Kong's most fluid action poet, John Woo (director of M:I2). Woo does what he can but, as much magic as he injects into the action, he can't turn Van Damme into an actor. Still, this is above-average fare for the wooden Belgian, in which he plays a guy trying to bust a ring of hunters who pay for the right to track and kill human quarry. And Woo has the ever-reliable Lance Henriksen as the chief bad guy, always a plus. --Marshall Fine, Amazon.com

Genius5
I have never written a review before but this is genius. Van Damme punches a rattlesnake in the face and then bites off its rattle in order for the snake to then be used in a silent ambush against his assailants. Quite simply the best bit of movie I have ever seen. Legend.

very good5
i had high expectations of van damme and john woo and its great good plot plenty of action. good stunts . if you like action john woo or van damme get it. not enough fight scenes though unfortunatly

watchable3
I guess..only a vandamme fan would be bothered to write a comment on this movie. The reality of this movie..is that it is not even near great. It really could have been a great movie. There is a lot of action..but the action is not John Woo's best. The plot is simple. Woman looking for her homeless father. Vandamme helps her. Mafia type group charges rich people to hunt the homeless for fun. Pretty depressing story. The film is basically action throughout and gives very little time to get people into the story. Its just in your face..but just not made well enough. I must admit..this movie has grown on me through the years. If it comes on the tv..i may watch .if i aint got nothing else better to do.
