Summary: van damme is the best and always will be
Review: this movie is a really good movie overall.....this movie has wierd characters..an old theme but with a twist ...and some parts of this movie are funny...van damme's acting was great and the movie is like a pulp fiction western....i think this movie should have been released in theatres and so should legionnaire..but that's ok...i'm a huge fan of van damme so i like all of his movies and this is not a usual van damme movie..but it's still a good movie and ....just to let everyone know....van damme is filming a new movie it's called ,REPLICANT, ...it'll come out in theatres early 2001...van damme is cloned in this movie and he plays a bad guy and a good guy so i hope it'll be a blockbuster and i hope with replicant, van damme will once again become the best action movie superstar...i hope this will be a good movie and as for desert heat it's a good movie ...go ahead and buy it.

Summary: a 180 degree turn from the usual jean claude movie
Review: This movie starts of very slowly and some what confusing. But the second half of the movie is great. It's like a client eastwood western but with a motorcycle instead of a horses. i don't want to spoil the movie but it about a man eddie(jean-claude) wants to take the journey(death). but wants to get his war friends permission so they can both take the journey. Eddie is giving his friend a gift and it gets stolen, along with his 45m. Then gets back these items along with bringing joy to the town in an unusual way. this movie is a great movie with odd ball characters and i do mean odd ball characters. its a mix between a western, boogie nights, and a jean claude film. all these add up to a great film.

Summary: Terrible
Review: This movie tried hard to be more than a genre martial arts movie, but the screenplay was too weak. The women characters, one and all, fell for Van Damme like coconuts from a tree. The villains were so dumb that Van Damme nearly succeeded in getting them to kill themselves off halfway through the movie. Given the weak plot I kept expecting decent fight scenes to liven things up, but there were none. I repeat, there were no good fight scenes, and this is an action movie! None of the villains had martial arts skills to speak of, so watching Van Damme fight them was like watching a man beat a dog with a tire iron.As for Van Damme's so-called acting, his character, Eddie Lomax, lacked credible motivation. Lomax was supposed to be suicidal but Van Damme just couldn't sell it. Lomax was a physical specimen, with women falling at his feet. He moved and fought like a commando, and had Mystical Indian Powers. And yet he couldn't think of a single reason to go on living? After watching him wallow in self-pity in the desert I wanted to shoot him myself. After Lomax takes the beating, heals and heads out for revenge, he kills the villains so dispassionately that you'd think he'd beaten them out of their beer money instead of snuffed out their lives. I am a Van Damme fan. I paid $4 to rescue this movie from the bargain bin. I regret to say that I paid too much. Well, maybe not; I can reuse the tape.

Summary: Van Damme is back on top with his latest movie
Review: When i heard about this movie coming out i thought to myself,van dammes movies days are over with constant failures during 1997-1999 double team,knock off,universal soldier the return,all failures and i thought this would be too.Wow was a suprized this movie has to be up there with Van Dammes best movies aka cyborg, double impact, univeral soldier 1.This movie actually has a great plot usually the plots could use some work but this is much better than before.And also this movie isn't just circled around action theres more acting than action which makes a good movie because fighting on every change of the scene is pointless aka univeral solider the return.And theres romantic scenes in this also.All in all this is Van Damme at his best.After years hes finnaly back on top with this movie.I recommend this for anyone big Van Damme fan or not,or maybe not even a Van Damme fan you'll still enjoy it.

Summary: Good Van Damme
Review: While not as good as some of his other movies (such as Hard Target), Desert Heat is a good movie. The fight scenes are pretty nice, and the character development is better then in most Van Damme movies. You actually begin to care about the characters! The plot isn't bad, either. A good DVD. Like I said, other movies such as Hard Target are better, but Desert Heat is still very much worth it.

Summary: Van Damme Like Never Before
Review: With regular Jean-Claude Van Damme movies I expect a movie with no plot and pointless action, but Desert Heat was a hysterical action packed adventure of suicidal loner Eddie Lomax (Van Damme) on persuit to reclaim his motorcycle from a gang of vicious outbackers. Meeting along the way unforgetable characters and of course killing those who got in his way. Van Damme actually does some good acting in this movie with punch lines that kept me laughing the whole time (ex."can't we all just get along") Those who expect regular Van Damme martial arts to used in this movie will be surprised because Van Damme uses character development and revenge as more of an approch to the key eliment in this movie (except for the end). I loved Desert Heat and recommend it to those who like funny action movies that are very entertaining!
