Plot:
Jean-Claude Van Damme gets a kick out of himself in this clever if barely competent action thriller, in which the likable Muscles from Brussels plays twin brothers separated at birth by a murderous Ho...( read more

yet another twin brothers plotline from van damme...he just loves to see two of himself on the screen haha i admit when i was a teen i loved this film, it does have some good action sequences and some good fights, this is mainly down to it being in van dammes 'eastern film' period with the likes of bloodsport and kickboxer, and using the same talented eastern cast members that were used in both mentioned films.
So yes this is in hong kong again but that adds to the scenery and style of the film nicely. its predictable and hammy sure but van damme still did the buisness really well back then and we all kinda loved him for it. the double effects on van damme arent too bad either...sort of :) your typical 80's flick really,long haired baddies,big female assasins and oodles of neat little quotes.
from what i've seen so far from van damme's filmography, this has got to be his best, great martial arts, gunfights but not great acting but i didn't care, i don't care too much about acting skill in a action movie unless they're really bad but this was was a minor complaint. i guess i just expect less as far as acting when it comes to action movies.
An extremely poor film that is just so much fun to watch and worth a viewing .....
Jean-Claude is just hilarious to watch and he makes attempts to seperate the twins personalities. He tries so hard but he is so limited in his abilities that it is just jaw droppingly bad. The rest of the cast don't fare any better either. At least there's consistency here.
Without doubt, the funniset film I have sseen in a while...
Putting that comment in context however, this is a very poor film in terms of acting, directing, plot and dialogue etc. It's because of this that it becomes so watchable.

The action stuff meets 80's standards and obviously this is where Jean-Claude can deliver the goods. The way that it is all put together is just poor though. The main bad guys are standard fare but have the best names ever (Zang & Nigel, how cool is that... A drug kingpin named Nigel...).
An extremely poor film that is just so much fun to watch and worth a viewing just for Jean-Claude's impression at the end of Eddie Murphy's freeze frame from the end of Beverly Hills cop. Just hysterical viewing.....
*sigh* Jean-Claude....have you ever made a watchable movie? You would think that maybe the high-flying action sequences would be enough to at least entertain a bit -- but no.
well what can i say you get two van dammes for the price of one.
the truffle from brussels, well not a bad plot really.
Does he wank his other self off in this? I can't remember...but I bet the little prick does the splits at some point
Although i didn't enjoy this as much as Bloodsport it was two van damme's for the price of one!At the time i thought that was great,now im not so sure.I also remember there being a really fit girl in this somewhere and jean-claude having a sexual fantasy about her while on a boat,looking out to see!
ITZ NOT THE BEST VAN DAMME FILM BUT ITZ WORTH THE VOTE I LOVE IT PERSONALLY ... .A SEXY VAN DAMME DEN A SEXIER WAN !! LOL :D
This is one of perhaps four movies in which Van Damme shows up more than once in the same scene... Also one of his crappier movies.
"great action flick back when i was 13..so please van damme...stop making damme low budget films ..plz..is that too much to ask for
Wasn't such a big fan of this Van Damme movie as some of the others. Still worth the watch though I suppose.
MMMM, he's yummy. Was too engrossed at perving on him to worry about the movie. Just kidding! It's got action and kickboxing, what's not to like.
A great action-packed film with Jean-Claude Van Damme as twin brothers who get together to avenge their parents death. A great cast, love the action and the characters.
JCVD faces off with himself yet again (I'm sure I can think of at least two others where this happens) to the usual dim-witted kickboxing effect. It's not the worst Van Damme you're going to see, but let's face it, even the best ones are garbage.
Van Damme I've found is best when paired with some other stars (see: Universal Soldier, Hard Target), and here's he's paired with the biggest of them all: Himself.
LOL this was awesome. van damme stars as a pair of twins in this movie. it is good and you can see that womans rack which is a nice touch. and the quote about "fucking up his face" was hilarious
One of the most awesomely bad movies in history. Jean-Claude fights, dances, drinks, and shows how he can do the splits "No Problem!"
one of van dammes finest. although i only watch this movie to hear shit van damme says; such as, "YOU OF ALL PEOPLE SHOULD KNOW, I WOULD NEVER IN MY LIFE WEAR BLACK SILK ONDERWEAR... LOOK AT 'IM, A FAGGOT."
A cheesey but enjoyable action film one of the better ones Van Damme has done with a fun plot of good and bad twin!.
Very good movie. I was so excited when I saw this movie (I was 10 years old). Because I had a lot of passion for imitating the martial art's talent shown by Jean Claude.
