Double Team - Retro VHS '90s

My friends host a "Sunday movie" group and let met tell you. I was the talk of the bunch for weeks on end when bringing this movie for the group to watch. Bot o lyrics did I grow a 12 pack of abs but all of my friends had such admiration for me that I became the movie master for the foreseeable future of this group.... all joking aside its a great cheesy action movie. A fun time for sure.

Not going to review the movie, you're either a fan of JCVD or your not, so there's that BUT one thing that I believe is important to many, as of date of writing this, 2021, my copy from Amazon, at $7.99 DID Have the Awesome Slip Cover. I know some have stated theirs did not but I can say for sure there is a good chance the ones left at Amazon do!

I recall when Double Team began production; it became big news due to Dennis Rodman being in his first starring role. For some reason, I never watched it until recently. Im stunned at the emotional range and intensity in the dramatic scenes. How this film isn’t in the Criterion Collection is beyond me. Double Team has won several awards (I googled) but it was never up for an Oscar (I wonder why). If you’re looking for action, drama, romance, and humor-this might be the movie for you.

The script was clearly two stories barely cobbled together. The grenades they used seemed to contain a billion gallons of jet fuel. Dennis Rodman maybe read off cue cards and managed to swap hair colors every scene. Mickey Rourke used the tiger in the final showdown inside an actual colosseum in Rome and it was a real tiger. The middle act was "inspired" by the Prisoner (not by watching it, but maybe hearing about it) and it doesn't matter. All I want in life is a 4K release.

Van Damme and Rodman play surprisingly well off each other. This film is not brilliant by any means, but it is a fun 90's action movie. If you go into this knowing what to expect, you will have a blast. The 90's were a great period for action films. This one is one over the top action ride of that era. VHS slip cover is really cool. Enjoy!!!

What can I say? Jean Claude Van Damme is my favorite martial karate. Champ!

Beware. I really liked the 90s retro box art and ordered it because of it and* the reasonable price. What I got was the generic box art. I really shouldn't complain about something so silly but being an art enthusiast and collector I was really looking forward to adding the retro blu ray to my vast collection. Not so much. It is what it is I guess.

Action packed van damme never disapiontes in action

Llevaba tiempo buscando esta película. Esperaba que trajera algo, alguna entrevista, escenas eliminadas, comentarios… algo… pero no, nada. Literalmente solo trae opción de ver película y yaa! Y la resolución es cómo se veía en vhs.Pero bueno, ya es parte de mi colección otra vez.

No trae sobtitulos en ningún idioma... Lastima de verdad quería esta película... Devolución completada...

Classic movie

Dennis Rodman changes his wardrobe so much during this film that my soul left my body on first viewing of this delicious Blu-Ray.

ヴァン・ダム好きなので購入。画質は日本版のDVDと見比べてみても特に差はありません。多少解像度が上がった程度です。言語は英語のみで英語字幕が付いています。特典映像に期待したのですが一つも入っておらず本編のみです。せめて予告編やメイキングくらいは入れてほしかったです。是非とも日本でBlu-rayを出す際はテレビ朝日版の吹替とメイキング、予告編（海外版・日本版）を収録してほしいです。
