ritechus Review of Until Death

Until Death (2007)

Seemed promising, but failed

[4/10 · 11 April 2007]

I see a lot of positives here about this new Van Damme film. I was really wanting it to be a success but its riddled with flaws that cannot be ignored. the acting is sub-par, even for Van Damme who looks like he's at least trying to be good actor. The writing is just not very good as can be seen by all the little holes in the film. I thought it was a good effort but ultimately it was a bad film that was horribly slow and boring with the same old storyline rehashed and spewed out. And what the hell was Stephen Rea doing in this film?

I don't blame anyone for the tragedy that is this film because it is not Van Damme's fault that he is unable to make a good dramatic film. He's only good when he's kicking but.
