Why watch this film?

"Sudden Death" from 1995 is one of the most celebrated films of action star Jean-Claude Van Damme. The plot follows a fire inspector (Van Damme) who finds himself immersed in a tale of terrorism and international conspiracy during a hockey game. Now, in "Welcome to Sudden Death," viewers are invited to dive into a kind of sequel. I say "kind" because almost nothing is the same as the original film. After all, Van Damme does not return to the role. Instead, Michael Jai White ("Black Dynamite") takes his place. And the plot only brushes against the original film, seeming more like a reboot than an actual sequel. However, in the end, the good action scenes can make up for these absences and satisfy an audience eager for films that recapture the spirit of action cinema from the 1990s and 1980s, even without their stars in the lead role. To turn off your brain, eat some popcorn and have fun without thinking too much.
