An undercover officer (Jean-Claude Van Damme) investigates murder and mayhem in a prison where kickboxing comes in handy.

3/10

The simplicity of the good cop struggling to survive on the inside, outnumbered and outgunned by bad cops and anarchists, establishes a few decent duels, while the sizable collection of antagonists line up for notable demises.

...a palpable low point within Van Damme's spotty body of work.

If you like Jean-Claude's movies, this might be tolerable. If not, stay away ... stay far, far away!

Van Damme should have stuck to the martial-arts flicks

Death Warrant feels like an imitation of a movie rather than an actual movie. Right from the first minute it's incomprehensibly weird in a bad way. How some films get made is a mystery.

Van Damme at his best. Great era for action.

Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são mais ou menos, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme nem o Jean Claude Van Damme, e os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes para fazer o filme ser bom.

Don't waste your time on this one. This might be the worst Van Damme movie ever made (quite a statement). From the terrible acting to the choppy and completely unbelievable story line, this one is a no-watch.

A movie so dumb so bad but to much that you can't but watch it's an entertaining train wreck
