Black Eagle offers literally nothing new to the espionage or action genres except for its fresh young heavy. It's remarkable as a time capsule and little else.

With one chase, one aborted fight and one small fight on a boat in the first 55 minutes, Black Eagle isn't exactly an action movie

Fun seeing JCVD in a villain role, but this one has no teeth. Solid fight choreography, but and overly complicated plot and alot of poor acting doom this one.

Rated 2 out of 5 stars

I remember going to my local Video Ezy Outlet during my childhood and hiring this among other Van Damme movies and not remembering much from this. Rewatched it as an adult and still unmemorable. Atrociously boring.

Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars

They packaged this movie on the same disc as Lionheart which was a prickish thing to do. A good palette cleanser after watching any other second rate film. This will enhance your appreciation of skillfully executed mediocrity. The film has nice enough cinematography to function as a sleep aid and just enough action to wake you up after finally achieving R.E.M. sleep.

Rated 1 out of 5 stars
