TIMECOP FULL MOVIE VAN DAMME SERIES

Jean-Claude Van Damme stars as Max Walker, TIMECOP, in the science fiction action yarn based the Dark Horse comic series by the same creative team behind. Ultimately it was probably trash even back in the 90s but it has the good grace to be entertaining that is still easy to watch. Timecop is still entertaining in spite of being stupid and, to be honest, quite generic.
TIMECOP FULL MOVIE VAN DAMME PLUS
Ron Silver as the villain is a definite plus point as he seems to be really enjoying himself and hams it up quite nicely while Bruce McGill gets some great lines as Van Damme’s put upon boss.
The action is amusingly over the top and you get to see some of the classic moves like Van Damme doing the splits which seemingly never gets old and the fact that the film takes itself so seriously actually makes it funnier. I guess that is to be expected from a 26-year-old film which I’d assume didn’t have the biggest budget, the upside to this is that there aren’t a huge number of effect shots. To top this off Walkers wife then factors back into the time travel gibberish later in the movie. Also, his mullet is gloriously ridiculous. What was probably done to make his character gruff and more serious is somewhat undone by his incessant quipping, which while amusing does little to convey gravitas. The talented Mia Sara is largely wasted as Walkers wife, she’s killed off early doors but not before a completely gratuitous sex scene to seemingly earn Van Damme the tortured backstory. While Timecop does try and establish logic, and to be fair it’s not just the time travel that’s as dumb, the whole film is idiotic and the dialogue is absolutely abysmal. With a story that is centred around this notion, I was expecting it to take a few liberties at least. Ten years after his wife’s murder Walker is sent through time to apprehend a former co-worker who is exploiting the past to make money. The basic plot follows The Time Enforcement Commission (TEC) who monitor time travel ensuring the law is upheld whatever time you might be in. The film literally sets itself up to make no sense whatsoever, even by film standards. I have vague memories of thinking it was quite clever at the time but also fun, which I was hoping to have again after re-watching it. Timecop could fit in nicely with those growing plans.Timecop is a typical 90s action film starring Jean-Claude Van Damme as officer Max Walker who helps regulate time travel. Universal has one of the strongest blockbuster franchises in Hollywood at the moment with Fast & Furious going strong, but have slowly been building up more summer action potential series as well, producing upcoming movies like Riddick (a long-awaited sequel to 2004's The Chronicles of Riddick), Kick-Ass 2 (which many thought would never happen) and Snow White and the Huntsman 2, which is on target for a 2015 release. Marc Shmuger ( The Spectacular Now) and Tom McNulty ( Date Night) are serving as producers.
Reading the trade report it doesn't appear that anybody is involved yet on the creative side, but it does mention that the story will be "a re-imagining of the concept" and that they are currently looking for writers. A conflict arises when the officer discovers that a politician, played by Ron Silver, is using time travel to further his career. In the original, which was directed by Peter Hyams and based on the series from Dark Horse Comics, the martial artist starred as a police officer who regulates time travel in the future. Thriller A time traveling police officer uncovers a conspiracy that involves a powerful politician who manipulates the past for financial gain.The Hollywood Reporter has learned that Universal Pictures now has plans to reboot the franchise - without Van Damme's involvement.
