Maidexpl Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast

Kailansorac Clever, believable, and super fun to watch. It totally has replay value.

Ava-Grace Willis Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

Ginger Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

Leofwine_draca Despite being later copied in 1997's FIRE DOWN BELOW, this is actually one of Van Damme's lesser films from his 'classic' period. It looks like he was trying to break away from his martial arts background here into more serious acting (which obviously failed), so fans will be disappointed that there are none of those famed kicks to the head. In fact, the film is extremely slow-moving, the monotony broken up only by a few good action sequences (the barn fire coming to mind). Adding insult to injury, a good deal of the film is made up with sickly sentimentalising in the form of Rosanna Arquette, who comes across as a really poor actress here, and an obnoxious child, namely Kieran Culkin, the younger brother of Macaulay. Yes, I cheered when someone smacked his gob at the end of this film.The fight scenes, when they do come, are pretty good, but sadly they're over very quickly. The first time we see Van Damme, he's beating up his guards, which doesn't exactly endear his character to the audience, later he flashes two young children in the woods. I'm not surprised they arrested this guy. The plot about landowners using dodgy methods to get rid of the woman living on their land is nothing new, and extremely basic - you could figure out what was going to happen next with ease.The acting is okay here, but strictly of the television-movie level, with the aforementioned Arquette and Culkin going through the paces. Van Damme seems to be a little out of his depth, as if his heart wasn't really in the film, and we don't really get to know him very well. He's not at his best. Of the bad guys, Ted Levine provides a worthy opponent for Van Damme, while Joss Ackland enjoys a seedy role (almost exactly the same role as he played in LETHAL WEAPON 2). NOWHERE TO RUN is passable entertainment, but you could do a lot better.

neoplasiacerebral Well, what i can say about this movie is that it really surprised me. REALLY. As a Van "Dammage" fan, i assure you that this is not your standard Van Damme action flick. I'll explain why. First of all, this is more of a drama than an action film. The story actually can touch you, and takes Van Damme's acting to a whole new level. On the other hand, the action will NOT disappoint you, specially on the final fight scenes, which are stunning ones. (One of the coolest by JVCD). Nowhere to Run is another good one from Van Damme's list, with a touch of emotion to the plot. I'm sure that at a certain point you will feel captivated by the film's story, which doesn't bring nothing of incredibly new but when we talk about a Van Damme action flick... OH, it really brings something new, and that's why i'm giving it a 9! Must watch, if you want to see a different Van Damme!Have fun!

Gut Bag Jean-Claude Van Damme escapes a prison transport vehicle to do battle with an evil magician and scum-bag cop who have been employed by developers to steal a communities' land. Kieran Culkin delivers a star performance as a kid who thinks boobs are "really gross!" Rosanna Arquette's hot mom boobs and plenty of shocking screenwriter incompetence make this film watchable with a couple of dudes. Don't check your smart phone too much because the slow moments pay off without too much meandering.Spoiler alert!: the kids both see Jean-Claude's penis before the mom does! Au revoir!

movieman_kev Jean-Claude Van Damme is Sam Gillen an escaped con who happens upon the farm of Clyde, a single mother who's house is in jeopardy of being bulldozed by a real estate developer. He spends his time peeping in on her showering, stealing salt and butting heads with her boyfriend whom she nonchalantly lies to all the time, before he helps her with her hired goon problem.Annoying kids notwithstanding, this film, while not nearly as good as I fondly remembered it as a kid, is an energetic enough time waister for a lazy Saturday afternoon.Eye Candy: Rosanna Arquette gets fully nude
