JCVD is a remarkably candid discussion disguised as a movie. In it, former action star Jean Claude Van Damme plays himself as he tries to restart his career in Hollywood. With brutal honesty, he discusses his current life and why and how his career initially fell apart. In between those scenes, he's being held hostage during a bank robbery and the criminals make it appear that he's become so destitute that he chose to rob it. After a while he goes with it in order to get the money to pay his lawyers fees.
JCVD is actually a pretty good movie and it provides and in depth look into Van Damme's life and struggles and It makes you feel bad for him. You do want to see him succeed. For Fuck's sake, he's Jean Claude Van Damme! Have we forgotten Bloodsport already?! Bloodsport!!!
The movie is about atonement and redemption. Van Damme is conveying to you that he has been his own worst enemy and showing you how he is trying to dig himself out of the hole he's put himself into. It is definitely worth a watch, in my opinion. Take a look at the trailer. It just doesn't seem like one of his usual "Straight to TV movies."
Besides, how can you hate a guy that says something to the effect of "I need to be more selective with my roles going forward, I'm trying to protect my image this time around." and immediately does "Universal Soldier 5?"
Violence? Yes. It may be introspective, but it is still a Van Damme flick.
Explosions? Yes, still a Van Damme flick.
Nudity? No. Not this time.
