Trailer
Why watch this film?
After a first movie with a 1990s feel, the 'Mission: Impossible' franchise took a more spectacular (and explosive) turn with the second film. Directed by John Woo ('Face/Off') and considered by many to be the weakest of the franchise, the feature film inserts more unrestrained action into the plot of Ethan Hunt, the secret agent who is once again called upon to lead a team and thus prevent a deadly virus created in Germany from spreading around the world. Tom Cruise is once again good on screen, now with long hair, but it is not enough to reduce the exaggerated tone of the production. The great highlight ends up being Brendan Gleeson, who gives unexpected depth to his character and helps 'Mission: Impossible II' to gain more layers.

Face/Off
The premise of 'Face/Off' may seem ridiculous at first, but if you give the movie a chance you'll see that the action sequences and plot are very entertaining. John Woo is an excellent director of Asian action cinema, recognized for his hyperstylization and elaborate choreography ('Hard Boiled', 'Double Target', 'Mission: Impossible 2'). However, the icing on the cake is seeing John Travolta and Nicolas Cage in a great acting duel, where one has to convincingly portray the other and vice versa.
Manhunt
John Woo (‘Face/Off’) returns to his birthplace: Hong Kong cinema. In this movie, he brings that basic script: a man who is framed for crimes he didn't commit and finds himself forced into a huge manhunt against his enemies. All of the director's known artifices are also present, famous for his extremely plastic action scenes. It's not one of his best films, but it will surely please action fans with its '70s style mixed with CGI and 2010's aesthetics. Oh, don't be fooled by the Brazilian title: 'Hunter of Men' is just a lazy translation for the original one, 'Manhunt'.
Action
The Witch: Part 2. The Other One
The Witch: Part 2. The Other One - A fast-paced action, mystery and thriller film that follows a young woman with impressive telekinetic powers, desperately fighting for her life while unraveling the mysteries of her past, pursued by unscrupulous killers. With Blue Dragon Award nominations for Best Supporting Actress (Seo Eun-su) and Best New Actress (Cynthia), this film captures the protagonist's intense battle to find answers and justice, facing not only her persecutors, but also to his own inner demons.
Bloodsport
Jean-Claude Van Damme makes his starring debut in the descriptively titled Bloodsport. An American soldier at large in Hong Kong, Van Damme becomes involved in the Kumite, a highly illegal kickboxing competition. Whoever survives the bout will be crowned Kumite champion of the world…a title that has plenty of challengers with homicide in their hearts. The finale offers a duel to the death between Van Damme and reigning Kumite king Bolo Yeung. The script is based on the real-life exploits of martial arts champ Frank Dux, who serves as the film's fight coordinator.
War on Terror: KL Anarchy
Khalid, a rebellious cop from an elite special force must prove he is able to work as a team in order to thwart terrorist threats to bring down Kuala Lumpur.
The Order
In The Order, Van Damme plays a man accused of murder who seeks a sacred scripture in Jerusalem before it falls into the wrong hands, jeopardizing his freedom. With shades of Dan Brown and a script by Jean Claude Van Damme himself, alongside Les Weldon (screenwriter of another action star film, Replicant), the movie is what every fan of the Belgian actor wants: brawling, with a fun plot, and never boring.
