In the beginning of the movie Burke shoots the Sandman several times in the chest. Later in the movie when the Sandman first attacks Burke when being held up in chains, we see the Sandman leaving the room with his shirt open and bares a chest with no bullets scars. See more »Soundtracks

Its amazing to me that this movie only received a 5/10. This is Van Damme in his prime and the plot & storyline were as good as they get for a 1990 movie of this genre. It was also one of his movies that incorporated him being from Quebec (yes I know he is from Belgium) which is much more effective in my opinion than some of his other films that portray him as being a cowboy from the U.S. It makes the plot seem much more realistic by at least addressing his accent. I mean, I can't remember ever hearing a cowboy talk like him.
Jean was even accompanied by good actors for once including: Cynthia Gibb, Robert Guillaume, and of course, Patrick Kilpatrick. If you haven't seen this film, (especially if your a Van Damme fan) please give it a try, you won't be disappointed. And for the voters who gave it a 5 or below rating - please watch it again when your not in a depressed state of mind.
Even 'Hard Target' got a 5.7 rating.
