The loner hero (Van Damme), the woman in peril (Yancy Butler), the CEO-type villain (Lance Henriksen) and his soulless henchman (Arnold Vosloo) -- the roles are little more than job descriptions. Martial artist Van Damme gets to punch out a rattlesnake and follow this moral code: I shoot you three times, then I kick-box your ugly face...
