Jean-Claude Van Damme Kicks Ass Weirdly in The Last Mercenary
Season 1, Ep. 104
•
Jean-Claude Van Damme stars in The Last Mercenary, a new Netflix French film about a master-of-disguise mercenary named The Mist (Van Damme) who comes out of hiding when a bureaucratic error threatens the safety of his long-lost son. There's also a race to keep something called The Big Mac from falling into the wrong hands. But it's so much more needlessly complicated than that.
The Last Mercenary makes you ask all the wrong questions you should be asking during an action movie, including: Could I beat up all these characters?
