We felt In Hell hit a sweet spot between the two. It had a grittiness and some actual ideas that separate it from a typical prison movie. One of these days, we will check out Evasive Action and see the similarities. <br /><br />Hellford667: We agree with your stance. It was nice to see Van Damme going in the opposite direction after Derailed.Tyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06188012325610596179noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32065576.post-77809863460127660792011-10-17T15:52:30.644-04:002011-10-17T15:52:30.644-04:00This one was a breath of fresh air after the desas...This one was a breath of fresh air after the desaster that was Derailed... a pretty good prison movie...i liked the different looks hes had in the movie, especially the alex(double impact) plus goatee look inbetween.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32065576.post-34632092529726153432011-10-17T13:22:18.379-04:002011-10-17T13:22:18.379-04:00I didn't see it as a return to form at all, I ...I didn't see it as a return to form at all, I thought it was a HUGE step down, Van Damme's "dramatic" scenes were rendered emotionally inert as a result of his somewhat unconvincing acting, the fight scenes weren't very compelling, and aside from Van Damme, the other actors in the film were extremely ameturish and they're characters were the same types you always see in prison films(is just it me, or is a prison one of the most boring movie locations there is?). Also the beginning of this film was stunningly similar to another DTV film "Evasive Action", with the wife killer getting off on a technicality and the main character killing them in the courthouse dramatically, both scenes were so similar that I have a hard believing it was a coincidence. In Hell did have a few effective moments(like the brawl betwen the guards and inmates) but overall it fell rather short of it's mark, i'd honestly prefer watching Derailed, Nowhere To Run and Assassination Games over this, whereas The Quest felt like a third-rate retread of Lionheart, this film feels like a third-rate retread of the more effective Death Warrant.venomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06632381738581803935noreply@blogger.com
