Well I was very bored. Even know I'm a fan. But I just like his really better movies : Bloodsport 1 , Kickboxer 1, Wrong Bett, Hard Target... Beetje dat kaliber dus. Erg stomme move om Dennis Rodman in de film te zetten eigenlijk. Ook al deed ie niet zo veel fout. Hij was gewoon saai hierin. Ach regisseurs en producers dachten toen zeker omdat ie erg bekend was in die tijd, en het best goed deed in de NBA, zoekt filmrollen laten we hem maar nemen. Want dat trekt publiek. Nou dat trok verkeerd publiek aan. Als je in de mood bent voor zo een films als dit met wat actie erin, guns en kicks dan is ie misschien te doen. Maar das ook nog het saaie stukje. Nope beetje minder dit. 3,9 says it all.
Hier een stukje, geschreven door een "fan" op IMDB. Het mooiste zijn nog de reacties van andere members die niet door het sarcasme heen prikken. betere entertainment dan de film :
A real "slam-dunk". This instant classic "stole" my heart and mind. After many sub-par attempts at the action genre, "Double Team" clearly illustrates that Jean-Claude van Damme's career is on the "rebound".
JCVD is completely remarkable in his role as a guy who really beat the crap of people. In his previous films, it is worth noting that he only kind of beat the crap out of people. In this film, he severely beats the crap out of people. This just proves that JCVD's grown tremendously as an actor. His talent has surpassed the acting skill The Rock and Vin Diesel added together, and then mutliplied together and then added together again. He quite clearly states with this role that he refuses to be typecast. I believe within a few years time, we will all see JC completely obliterate the crap out of every one in a movie (there quite literally be no more crap to be obliterated).
Dennis Rodman is brilliant as "Yaz". His acting talent in portraying a witty, basketball playing clown is unmatched, and in my opinion, commits no "foul" nor "double-dribble" in his performance. As a sidekick, he does not disappoint. It was remarkable how this man blended to every scene in the movie despite being the only seven foot tall, black, nose-pierced, or rainbow colored person in the film (a true credit his natural thespian ability!!). Like "the Mailman", he never failied to deliver the "ally-oop" for JC, who slammed it home time and time again! The duo hits "nothin' but net".
Not many people know this, but Dennis Rodman is not only a famous actor - he was also once a basketball player for the American National Basketball Association (NBA)! Throughout the film, there are many coy allusions to this fact. For instance, did you know that the title of the film is a basketball term, meaning to have two men defend against one opponent? Did you catch that his parachute in the film was shaped like a basketball? He also cleverly fashions certain basketball terminology and cliches to suit the perils of his situation. The best line of the film comes from Rodmans lips: "Sometimes the best defense is a STRONG OFFENSE". This original and masterfully-crafted line of irony not only speaks to the truth of the situation, but convinces us once and for all that violence IS always the answer. It is this type of subtlety of this type of dialog that allows "Double Team" to trancend conventional movie-making.
So please, see this movie. No "Bull", you will not be "board" by this action packed, thinker of a film. Make a "fast-break" to the video store on the "double-double".
