Trailer
Why watch this film?
Jean-Claude Van Damme is one of the big stars of the '80s and '90s "macho" cinema. On the big screen, he starred in successful productions within the genre, such as 'Double Impact', 'The Great White Dragon', 'Kickboxer' and 'Universal Soldier'. This time, Van Damme returns as the title character of 'Lukas', a dark, bloody production with several fight sequences - all without resorting to an obvious script.

The Crew
A criminal thriller with no great aspirations of being anything more than that - which is actually a positive thing. With an exciting story about robbery and settling of accounts, it will keep you hooked to know the unfolding of the story - which fits perfectly into the current reality of France and Paris.
Earth and Blood
This violent production is directed by Julien Leclercq, a French filmmaker known for intense suspense like 'Lukas' (with Jean-Claude Van Damme) or 'Carga Bruta'. 'La terre et le sang' does not disappoint in this regard, so you can expect a well-crafted action thriller under the old and proven premise of one man (or group of them) against an army of bandits. The editing pace raises the tension to the limit and, although the feature itself does not revolutionize the genre nor change your life, it will certainly keep you engaged - especially if you're looking for pure and simple entertainment.
Sentinelle
Julien Leclercq is a French director who has specialized in action films - including 'Lukas' and 'Carga Bruta'. In 'Sentinela', the filmmaker delves a bit deeper into drama and has his first female lead: Olga Kurylenko, from '007: Quantum of Solace'. In the story, the actress plays a soldier traumatized by her past and yet forced to take action to avenge her sister's rape. It's one of those stories that, even though it's fiction, has a strong foot in reality - and, between one punch and another, makes us reflect on the world.
Thriller
Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey 2
Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey 2 is the unlikely sequel to the feature film that placed the characters of this playful and childlike universe into a world of violence and horror. However, don't expect a production as weak as the previous film: with the success of the first installment at the box office, the production had more money to invest, and thus Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey 2 manages to be more realistic, violent, and impressive compared to the first film. The characters' masks are much scarier, and it ceases to be a complete joke. It's still difficult to take the film entirely seriously, especially with this bizarre premise of Pooh and his friends seeking bloody revenge, but you can already feel more fear and, above all, immerse yourself in the wave of violence that the film promotes. To have fun with friends.
Sleeping Dogs
Roy Freeman, an ex-homicide detective with a fractured memory, is forced to revisit a case he can’t remember. As a man’s life hangs in the balance on death row, Freeman must piece together the brutal evidence from a decade-old murder investigation, uncovering a sinister web of buried secrets and betrayals linking to his past. With only instincts to trust, he faces a chilling truth - sometimes, it’s best to let sleeping dogs lie.
