Josh Bell Crooked Marquee The fight scenes are relatively sparse in the interminable 110-minute movie, which spends far more time on Youn's mugging than on Van Damme's still-formidable roundhouse kicks. Rated: C Jun 3, 2025 Full Review Shikhar Verma High on Films Even though the film suddenly wants it to be taken seriously, the charm of Van Damme’s screen presence, coupled with Youn’s dedication to commit to the wackiness of his character, makes “The Gardener” a fun time. Rated: 2.5/5 Jun 2, 2025 Full Review Brian Orndorf Blu-ray.com “The Gardener” seems like a farce for the taking, but Charhon doesn’t lean into the comedic possibilities of the premise, and the small-scale endeavor just isn’t funny, fumbling gags while Van Damme rises up every now and then to take out bad guys. Rated: D+ May 9, 2025 Full Review Read all reviews
