Wake of Death (2004)

Poor acting
24 March 2006
My mother tongue is not English. Anyway, as often as I can, I try to watch English speaking movies within English language. I know that my accent might sound very terrible for anyone whose mother language isn't french. But, every time I happen to watch a movie where Jean-Claude Van Damme is acting, I can't help smiling each time he opens his mouth, not because he says something funny, but because he doesn't sound even a wink credible while acting. I just wanted to watch this movie because critics weren't that bad in the TV program magazine that I read. It makes me forget the plot and I can't stay concentrated more than few minutes in a row. Maybe I should keep on watching movies where he is involved only in french version. On the other hand, I happened to watch worst movies in which Jean-Clause Van Damme was acting. Hence, I watched it till the end. For once, I could find some acceptable parts when he was not too overacting as there was not only action for action, but it was so seldom. I don't desesperate to watch other movies where Jean-Claude Van Damme is acting because I know that he has many fans, therefore there might be something I haven't catch yet. I think that I am going to watch this movie again but I would stick on french version. I might reconsider my opinion later on.
