	Media	Author	Review
		Owen Gleiberman Entertainment Weekly	"Van Damme’s acting remains a joke, but as a presence, I’ll take him over the increasingly logy Seagal"
		Kevin Thomas Los Angeles Times	"It delivers the goods. It’s a solid, fast-moving action-adventure set largely in Hong Kong"
		Rod Lurie Empire	"Van Damme's doubling up merely tends to make this movie (...) twice as avoidable as it would otherwise be (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"
		Roger Ebert rogerebert.com	"The movie has slick production values and a few clever lines (...) Martial arts movies are limited by their formulas (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 4)"
		Time Out	"The idea of two Van Dammes must have seemed workable on paper, but both exude the charisma of a packet of Cup-a-Soup"
