Timecop 4K 1994

The topic of time travel is of concern to mankind everywhere, not least in the movie industry. There is no point in listing the most famous movies, where the main characters travel back in time to the past or to the future in order to change the natural course of events. Everyone already knows them. For example, ‘Timecop’ with Van Damme turned out to be a very good action movie. Let nothing outstanding with displacements here did not come up with, except for the idea that the same biomass can not occupy a place in the same space. But there are all signs of Hollywood action - charismatic protagonist, fights, shooting and very effective jumps in time.

Corrupt senators have been filmed before. But their attempts to change the past are not often seen. Besides, in the 90's there were not so many movies where two identical characters appear in the same frame. Van Damme may not be as cool here as one of the twin brothers in ‘Double Impact’, but it's fun to see him at different points in time in the same movie. The villains jump here and there to ‘adjust’ future events for their own benefit. And the policeman Max tries his best to prevent them - that's the plot.

Everything is filmed in a very unusual way. Not only that the action movie turned out to be gloomy, but also here you will rarely see the famous kicks from Van Damme, who prefers to sit on the twine and threaten the villains with the most ordinary pistol. This is more like a sci-fi thriller, where the main thing is not how the main characters do something, but why they do it at all. Max does not want to just stupidly exterminate the villains, he is trying to prevent the irreparable and understand what role is assigned to him in time travel. So a bit wrong are those who say that ‘Brussels Muscle’ has only one fighting movie in it. 'Timecop' may not be the highest quality thriller of the '90s, but it shows that Van Damme is suited to even slightly dramatic roles.
