Kickboxer is my favourite film of all time. I have watched it so many time yet never get fed up with it......I wish real men were like him I'd be a happy girl

1. Bloodsport - probably the one I like the best.
2. Cyborg - This was good but I don't remember too much about it so it couldn't have been that great
3. Kickboxer - Liked the action but this film could have been better. It was just full of too many cliches.
4. Lionheart - Another one that was just OK
5. Death Warrant - Main thing i remember from this film is that Benson was in it. I did like it though.
6. Double Impact - Mildly amusing, but it did have some good action
7. Universal Soldier - I remember really liking this movie but I think I've only seen it once.
8. Nowhere to Run - Ugh, this was a stinker.
9. Hard Target - Fantastic film and what else would expect from John Woo? Wilford Brimley as a cranky old Cajun is insane casting and of course, Lance Henriksen is bad a** as always.
10. Timecop - Ron Silver lifted this film up a bit. It was pretty good, not great.
11. Street Fighter - Oh, the travesty of this film. It pretty helped kill Raul Julia! Mortal Kombat was way better, he should have starred in that instead.
12. Sudden Death - Die Hard in the Pittsburgh Civic Arena. Back before all these stadiums had corporate names. I liked this movie but I gave it a large leeway because I am from the Burgh.
13. The Quest - I know I saw this, but don't remember anything except that James Bond was also in it.
14. Double Team - The less said about this one, the better.
15. Knock Off - First Dennis Rodman, then Rob Schneider. I don't know if that is a step up or a step down.
16. Legionairre - Damn, what is it with JCVD and the French Foreign Legion?
17. Replicant - Very underrated film, plus it has Michael Rooker in it.
18. Universal Soldier The Return - Another one I know I saw, but can't remember too much.
19. Universal Soldier Regeneration - Notable to me mostly for JCVD and Dolph playing to their age.
20. Expendables 2 - Loved this throwback.

I still haven't seen Day of Reckoning, but really want to.

I notice you comment for number 16 is typical of young folk who watch Van Damme movies solely for the fighting. That one is a genuine film in the mold of Beau Geste or March or Die.
