Van Damme Action Pack Quadruple Feature (Timecop / Hard Target / Street Fighter / The Quest) Reviews:
Van Damme Action Pack Quadruple Feature 
2008-10-03 - This is a great action pack - martial arts action, with some story line.
Bring back memories if you saw them the first time around.
Worth it for TIMECOP and HARD TARGET... 
2008-09-29 - Any movie where Jean Claude Van Damme has a mullet or travels through time is good in my book. Timecop is actually not that bad a movie as I remember. Hard Target is also good but Street Fighter looked silly to me. I'm not in grade school so all of those movies like Mortal Kombat and Street Fighter don't have the same effect on me. The Quest looked dumb and it didn't hold my attention so I just turned it off.
Overall, this is a good buy and its def worth the price.
Van Damme Fun!
2008-07-28 - I already own all of J-C Van Damme's movies, but quite a few are old videos, some former rentals. This quad movie pack freed up quite a bit of shelf space, all movies are in widescreen, no special features.
Hard Target and Timecop are my 2d and 3d fave Van Damme movies (#1 is Universal Soldier). Both produced by Sam Raimi and Robert Tapert.
Both are action movies. Hard Target is directed by John Woo so you know there will be a dove and some good fights, all in slow motion. It's the first time I remember seeing Arnold Vosloo, before he became The Mummy. Lance Henrickson is also good in it. You get a brush with Sam's brother Ted, but no Bruce. One of J-C's better performances.
Timecop is an action sci-fi flick - J-C works for a security agency that polices time travel - very enjoyable. You get to see quite a bit of Mia Sara, much matured since her day off with Ferris Buhler.
Street Fighter is more of an action comedy, although not all of the comedy was intentional. Not my favorite movie. I liked Raul Julia as an actor, but he was obviously very ill during filming - had that gaunt look - it was his last cinema release. He mostly glares at people. I don't know anything about the video games so no idea how the movie translated from them. A bunch of hostages are taken, J-C and his army are trying to rescue them and stop their captor from gaining world domination.
The Quest reminds me of Bloodsport. The reason could be that the story is by Frank Dux (on whom Bloodsport was based) and J-C (who starred in the movie). J-C also directed. Much like Bloodsport, you are there for the fights, not for the acting. I don't think this movie is quite in the same league as Bloodsport, even though Roger Moore is in it. How did that happen? Is Timothy Dalton next? But I did enjoy the fights.
I would recommend this movie pack.
Finally - TIMECOP in true widescreen!
2008-06-21 - I gotta say... I am very happy I bought this set... I did buy it primarily to get Timecop in widescreen... and I admit I was apprehensive about this... Frankly, I was afraid they would take the full screen version and simply cut off the top and bottom, like so many companies have done to "create" a widescreen version of their movies... but this version is true 2:35:1 widescreen AND it is dual layer and very good quality - even on the big screen plasma! I haven't watched the other films in the set yet, but I don't care... Timecop is excellent and finally it is here in widescreen... I recommend this highly and say thanks to the people who decided to give us true quality for the money we spent on this!
Timecop in widescreen at last!
2008-05-24 - And it's about bloody time.
My only purpose in writing this review is to confirm that at long last, we have a Region 1 version of Timecop in true anamorphic widescreen format. If, like me, you've been waiting for it for years, then I guess that'll be good news to you.
