I know it's hard to like later-day Van Damme, but I think 6 Bullets stands up. My three favorite Van Damme personas are (in no particular order): JCVD who laughs at himself, JCVD with contrived national origin, and sad JCVD. 6 Bullets is an example of the latter. He plays an expert at doing the things Liam Neeson does in Taken, going up against human trafficking rings to get kids out of such nests in Eastern Europe, but he's made mistakes, and he's tortured. Tortured and prone to big-picture mistakes, but immensely competent and cool while doing it. We're not gonna make believe this is an original story, but the action has its memorable moments, the parents of the girl come along and have something to contribute, and the story makes sense (which isn't always a given with direct-to-whatever action flicks. The title refers to a quote about human trafficking, but there's not a WHOLE LOT of gun action from Van Damme, who prefers knives in this one. Well good, because guns is the least interesting kind of action someone like JCVD can do. 1 year 7 months ago -
