My Movie Review: The movie is a sleaze must-watch for any fan of Jean-Claude Van Damme who misses his style of his action when the era of fast quick showdown of strength his a king:) The Last Mercenary is slapstick action flick that focuses on legendary former secret service agent turned mercenary Richard Brumiere known as "The Mist" for his ability to disappear into thin air, work side resurfaces in Paris as his son is mistakenly taken into custody made people! This is a very goofy, lighthearted, 90's action comedy throwback that mostly fizzles horribly and is destined to be watched by men in their late 30's as farcical fusion of terrorism, stolen identity and father-son healing comes to take place bounding energy and fun take on star Jean-Claude Van Damme's past exploit as an action star, but the humor is way more showcase in-between:) Good to be back having never watched a Van Damme movie, this French film is a romp with a light heartness about it Van Damme is old agent that returns from retirement but his personal mission is finally having a reunion with his son as the humor ranges from silly to cringe-worthy with the worse being this running gag about Richard's ladies man status as long as he provide!

Critic Reviews: Jean-Claude Van Damme remains impressively limber, that's a rare highlight in The Last Mercenary, which feature the Muscles from Brussels in Paris-sent embarrassment! While Charhon puffs and wheezes in his attempts at diversion, he can't keep up with the natural charisma of his leading man. The tone of the line readings is so in-your-face that it leaves you seriously wondering where comedy leaves off and ineptitude begins. If you're looking for light, silly action fun, you could do worse than "The Last Mercenary." It's nice to see that the Muscles from Brussels is not only self-aware, but also sharp enough whenever he has to take a baby step or two beyond his own shadow. The fight scenes have wit and Van Damme delivers his lines with just the right amount of weary good humor. While I enjoy Van Damme’s action-comic turn, the rest of film’s cartoonish vibes and mind-numbing supporting characters are too much for even The Last Mercenary to bear. It is a Gallic slapstick action flick that has that French comic-book sensibility about it and JCVD pulling out many of his signature moves:)

My Movie Review: The movie is relaxing and stimulating the location set the tone as if you've went to vacation with them making the experience well better than your average Hallmark flick! Resort To Love is true to its title you've come love the resort cause of its beauty and nature make up for a good vibe as of to love the characters interaction the lively music is such a plus:) Resort To Love is nice movie it was real, the acting was excellent made characters real for me! Good to see movie with happy ending for all I do wish they would have made the brother like a best friend that he had in high school or something but overall this was well done with lots of twists and turns, great acting not mushy and not what you would expect as the location really helps to elevate' beautiful and its refreshing to see a film loaded with variety of people of color:) Christina Milian is so radiant thru entire movie as we know its assembly line romantic comedy, but Christina Milian she looks that good in a beautiful island scenery but what I did like about it that separates it from others its not over the top silly, they develop the story and the characters!

Critic Reviews: If you're looking to engage with the movie on a superficial level, it has plenty to offer. And if you want to dig a little bit deeper, that's there, too. Resort to Love offers a cute love story starring attractive leads, but it has the look and feel of a vacation on a budget. As uninspired as its name. To say that "Resort to Love" is slight would be akin to snatching a romance novel out of your closest friend's hands while she sits reading and sipping a margarita on a beach. Why would you do that? Christina Milian is hilariously adorable in this romcom about embracing closure with a former love! A fun, high-energy, film filled with music and lively characters. It feels like a Hallmark Christmas Movie, only without the Christmas. The ending romance was a bit unsettling, but Christina's bubbly personality keeps it a float. The problem isn't that Resort to Love is utterly formulaic, rather, it's the bland romance we are treated to that disappoints. The music was enjoyable, though. The "elements" of "Resort to Love" add up to a better movie than this Hallmark-lite romance-- pleasantly-bland star vehicle for Christina Milian!

My Movie Review: The movie is amore turns out to be beautiful action that displayed courage strengthen and tenacity as it goes on kind of enjoyed it as I wasn't so sure what I was to expect or what it would pan out to be cause it change course but at the end I was glad I could watch it! Bartkowiak is beaten senseless, disgraced as a doper, and his coach loses the hefty chunk of change he bet on his boy with richly choreographed action, strong characters and fastinating story, Bartkowiak is an easy film to recommend especially for those fan of action sport movies:) Bartkowiak is a Polish martial arts drama designed to showcase the fighting, with a plot about a man seeking justice follows Tomek Bartkowiak, the younger of two brothers, he used to be a famous MMA fighter and was an undefeated champion of the sport after his brother dies in a car crash, he takes over the family nightclub as soon learns his sibling's death wasn't accident! Bartkowiak might not be original, but it isn't aggressively silly or stupid, either, which means it occupies a middle ground as semi-serious' in all fairness gave us something to look up ahead:)

Movie News: Tomek Bartkowiak (Jozef Pawlowski) is an MMA fighter with a devastating right jab and a decent shot at taking it to the next level. With his coach Pawel (Szymon Bobrowski) in his corner and his brother Wiktor whose cheering him on, Tomek is about to TKO the tattooed, scarred Repec (Damian Majewski) when somebody slips him a mickey. Bartkowiak is beaten senseless, disgraced as a doper, and his coach loses the hefty chunk of change he bet on his boy. Tomek retreats to a cabin in the mountainous Zakopane region to lick his wounds, and that’s where Wiktor appears with an offer to join him in running Ring, their family-owned Warsaw nightclub. But before the noble fighter can even consider his brother’s offer, Wiktor is killed in brutal high speed collision, Tomek find himself running Ring in his absence. Bartkowiak got a raw deal in the octagon against the shady corporate power brokers who want to steal his family’s nightclub by any means necessary. This fighter with two fists and a heart of gold will have to get in the ring one more time, but there’s no referee, even the bell is rigged against him. The veteran Polish actor Bartlomiej Topa is terrific here as Kolodziejczyk, a man obscures his moral bankruptcy and sadism behind refined speech and free movement amongst the country’s financial elite. Stream It, Even if it’s more than likely you’ve seen this plot before, you'll find yourself rooting for Bartkowiak as takes on bad guys much bigger than just one guy:)
