Universal Soldier: Regeneration (2009)
I loved the first edition of this movie, didn't really care for the second, but I was a little excited for this one for the mere return of Dolph Lundgren (Universal Soldier) to possibly battle Jean Claude Van Damme (Bloodsport) who is a legend in action films to me. Basically, the movie is about this group that takes the Russian prime ministers kids hostage to free prisoners. They use a universal soldier (MMA star Andre Arlovski) to kidnap them. This alarms the US and they in return bring back their own, but they fail to defeat him. So, they only have one option left and that is bring back Luke (Van Damme) whose been trying to rehabilitate himself. Obviously Van Damme gets the job done and on the way Van Damme and Lundgren fight once again. The only thing is Van Damme looks old and it looks like he's trying to hang on to the genre much like Stallone. The movie also stars Garry Cooper (The Harvest) as Dr. Porter, John Foo (Tekken) as Unisol #2, and Zahary Baharov (War Inc.) as Commander Topov. I give this one a C because the action was great, but the dialogue and story were poor.
