Summary: Damme it
Review: i am van damme fan because of his martial arts skill. that is the only thing in this movie. the story suck, the acting suck. the only good thing is the action and great camera work by the director. for my rating of buy it, borrow it, or bury it. borrow the movie watch it, keep the fast forward button handy. and then bury the movie.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: no...just...no

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Perhaps the worst movie....EVER
Review: I have never seen anything this bad before. I mean watching water boiling has more plot than this. I don't know what this is, man I feel sorry for the poor sap who produced this movie and didn't know what he was getting. The only good thing about it I think was the camera shots which is imperessive work....for the camera man. The acting is so bad it's almost funny. The computer graphics is laughable, actually it really is (especially the part with the exploding Buddha). Van Damme has his first hit comedy, even though it's really a serious movie.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: destined to become a cult classic
Review: I just watched this foolish film on TV with the sound turned off and it's gorgeous! The beautiful colors and so-called "chaotic" camera work deserve better reviews. Who cares about the plot? I usually hate this kind of movie, but it's visually stunning, and deserves five stars for that alone. I just ordered a copy so I can watch it again. I wonder if I'll ever bother to turn the sound on?

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Not Van Damme
Review: I love Van Damme's movies, but this one was terrible. Actually, I think it was more the director. The actors were terrible, and what's up with all the slow and fast motion sceens?!? I agree with the other viewer about the movie trying to be like Jackie Chan movies. It's just not Van Damme's style.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Great Performance by Van Damne
Review: I rented this movie on video like 4 years ago,my whole family watched it and we were all pleased.And like a year ago i saw it on DVD and i loved watching it again.I think this movie will go in the top 10 of Van Damnes best movie but not the top 5. Im gonna name the top 5 Van Damnes best movies. Kickboxer, Bloodsport,Lionheart,Desert Heat,Hard Target.Im like the biggest Van Damne fan,and this one is worth watching.It deserves****A very good movie.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Cool!!!!
Review: I think this movie is great!!!!!!!!!!!! I like Van Damme!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Very Funny!!!
Review: I've read the reviews and wanted to watch Knock Off out of curiosity, to see how bad this production is. But it wasn't bad at all. The special effects wasn't great, but the movie had a good plot. It was hilarious especially when the fake jeans came apart as the two leads were pulling it. JCVD was really funny. I enjoyed this one better than Double Team. In Knock Off, he was more energetic, vibrant, full of life. I like Marcus Ray (JCVD's character). I think this movie is a visual feast.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: more interesting staring at a wall
Review: it was so boring and unoriginal i had to take it out of the VCR in the middle of it before i died of boredom.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Fun Van Damme action...
Review: Jean-Claude Van Damme is one of those actors you either are a fan of or you despise. Me? I'm a big fan, so that makes me a little less qualified to rate this film, but I'll review it nonetheless. It takes place in Hong Kong, where the market for "knock offs," or imitations of an original product, is blossoming. Van Damme and Rob Schneider play two business partners who are caught up in a nasty circle with the Chinese mafia, renegade CIA agents, and big bad guys. The action and direction from Tsui Hark is awesome, especially a scene where Van Damme slides around on a boat while beating up bad guys. Rob Schneider is not too annoying in this film, which is a good thing. The bad guy, however, was a bit underwhelming, but his demise works. Van Damme films are never any cinematic accomplishment by any means, but they can be, and usually are, plenty of fun. This is no exception.
