In JCVD, weary action star Jean-Claude Van Damme plays a semi-fictionalized version of himself. He returns to Belgium to find relief from his troubles but instead stumbles into a bank robbery.
In Roger Ebert’s review of the 2008 film he said, the movie “almost endearingly savages” Van Damme, who “says worse things about himself than critics would dream of saying, and the effect is shockingly truthful”
JCVD is showing as a double feature with Being John Malcovich.
