AGAIN with People who don't like these kind of movies giving low rate.. Why don't these "poor" so-called cultists stay with the unbelievably boring crap they watch with high meanings and their job is to put a low rating on a PURE good old action movie? It was a very decent movie with ACTION non stop ,good photography and the director seems to make a well done job. Jean Claude is on the pantheon of 90s action movie actors!

Van Damme, once again comes into his own with less acting, and more action. This film proves comparable to the martial arts film 'Deadly Games' starring Jason Riley and Bruce Lynch. The only thing this excellent film misses, is the crudentials and ingenious fighting choreography of Jedidiah Smith and Chad Turner ("Deadly Games"). After being mistaken for his twin brother, who was murdered in France by a group of crooked FBI Agents, Alain Moreau (Jean Claude Van Damme) hooks up with his brothers girlfriend(Natasha Henstridge)and learns about his unknown past, and ends up in a battle for his life against both the Russian Mob, whom his brother was involved in, and a crooked group of FBI agents, who want the evidence of there involvement with the Russian Mob destroyed. Again, Van Damme shows he can still kick and excite action movie audiences. Maximum Risk is a must see for any Van Damme fan, and a worth while experience for action film fans.

In a remarkably transparent plotline, Van Damme finds he has a twin brother, put up for adoption during their earlier years by their destitute mother. What follows is all the things you expect to see - high kicks, glib one liners, and a female lead. Entertaining for those that like Van Damme, but for those of us who don't get so excited about the man from Brussels, just another Van Damme film.

Now I'm not one to belittle people's opinion but I feel I have to state mine... in relation to my dislike to this film! Bear in my mind I love jcvd, I saw this during a dampage watching all the films I hadn't seen (11) some great some not so but this is the worst of the bunch. It's so inconsistent, terribly eddited, awful dialogue, it just about scratches the surface of so bad it's good. You want a cheesy action then I recommend hard target or bloodsport, you want a more serious film (used loosly) try the quest or AWOL. Please try for yourself some people clearly have a love for this film but not myself. I'd rather watch knock off again.

It was a nice movie and really enjoyed it. Lots of actions and drama.

This movie is actually not that bad by Van Damme standards. It's one of his more entertaining films. He continues on with his bizarre twin fascination (is he really SUCH an ego-maniac that he always has to play TWO characters?) but Natasha Henstridge steals the show. She is such a gorgeous creature that one can become transfixed watching her on the screen. She is truly a beauty and this movie is worth watching just to see her on screen. You can fast forward through the parts she's not in.

It's hard to see good fire use on tv or cinema nowadays. They almost gonna light candles with cgi. This was a breth of fresh air. Pacing is not that great but still a fun action flick.

Both protagonist were so uncontrollable and lusted for one another, betraying their brother that trusted them so much. There was even a comparison of 'hardness' quality. The movie was dragged - covering it with governmental corruption, internal turmoil of the mobs. Truly, there was nothing much or surprising other than the fact that the audience can gaze at Alex B's nice cups. 6.5 / 10.
