How disappointing. It’s Halloween today and this movie was supposed to be frightening(ly bad), but it’s actually…almost bloody good fun. That doesn’t mean Lionheart, or is it “Lyon’eart”?, isn’t without a great many flaws. We touched on plenty of those with vim and also vigour.
Jean-Claude Van Damme does okay work in the leading role and the AWOL’er is suitably handsome & chiseled. JCVD is also the blonde-babe-avoider, the prude who would rather kick people and stalk his family than relax and make out with JR’s secretary. We have a theory as to how he could resist this sexy and oh so willing woman.
So hit that button to hear episode #37 of Scoring at the Movies justify how this is an MMA movie (stop arguing, it kinda is)! But don’t forget that at the 43-minute mark, as we segue into our favourite horror flicks and our most horrifying scary-movie moments.
Pedantry Alert: We said that JCVD is “playing a French guy”, but of course everyone—including us SATM’ers—knows he’s from Belgium (as in, “The Muscles From A Certain City In Belgium”), not France.
We’re down to tweet: @moviefiend51 and @scoringatmovies
