Skip it. This 1992 Jean-Claude Van Damme thriller has all the hallmarks of direct-to-video mediocrity—a contrived twin-brother plot, generic mobster villains, and the usual action-movie formula that's been done better a hundred times over. Even Van Damme fans can find better uses for their evening.

Plot

Alain Moreau's investigation into the death of his identical twin brother leads him from the beauty of the south of France to the mean streets of New York City and into the arms of his brother's beautiful girlfriend. Pursued by ruthless Russian mobsters and renegade FBI agents, the duo race against time to solve his brother's murder and expose an international conspiracy.
