Sudden Death | Year: 1995 Classification: Action Directed: - Peter Hyams Actors/Actresses: - Jean Claude Van Damme as Darren McCord - Dorian Harewoord - Powers Boothe - Whittni Wright - Jean-Claude Van Damme Van Damme's Good Movie I like to refer to Sudden Death to my friends as Van Damme's good movie...only good movie. I guess I love this one because it is set during a hockey game. Look for the part when Van Damme becomes the Penguins goalie. As a former goalie myself, to me this is one of the best scenes of the movie, along with Van Damme stabbing a guy with a bone! With awesome stunts and hockey, this is quite the enjoyable mindless-action flick! AVERAGE VAN DAMME FLICK, BUT, IT WAS BETTER THAN I EXPECTED A FIRE MARSHAL [VAN DAMME] MUST STOP A SADISTIC MAN FROM BLOWING UP A HOCKEY ARENA. OF COURSE, THIS IS AVERAGE AT BEST. BUT, JUDGING FROM ALL THE NEGATIVE REVIEWS THAT I'VE SEEN CRITICS LIKE LEONARD MALTIN GIVE THIS FILM, THIS IS A LOT BETTER THAN I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE! IT DOES HAVE GOOD ACTION, EVEN IF THIS MOVIE IS ANOTHER DIE HARD RIP-OFF. VAN DAMME FANS SHOULD LOOK AT THIS ONE IF THEY STILL HAVEN'T SEEN IT YET. Solid Above Average Action Die Hard goes to the hockey game. A reasonably intelligent script and exciting non-stop action keep this flick zipping along. Powers Booth delivers his lines with relish, as if he thought of them himself. Arranging all the action around a hockey game in progress is pretty clever. Gives everything an urgent almost claustrophic feel. Defeat the bad guys or the building blows up and 20,000 people die. Sudden Death faithfully adheres to the plot devices and cliches of most modern action flicks without wearing out its welcome.
