Jean-Claude Van Damme is reunited with legendary filmmaker Peter Hyams (Timecop; Sudden Death) for a rare villainous turn even more gleefully deranged than his role in The Expendables 2!

After a major shipment of drugs goes missing on the US-Canadian border, forest ranger and former Navy SEAL Henry is plunged into survival mode when the drug cartel, led by the ruthless killer Xander (Van Damme), forces him to help retrieve the downed package. Trapped in the wilderness with no communication to the outside world, Henry finds himself face to face with Clay (Orlando Jones), a man with a personal vendetta against Henry who has returned for retribution. Now, the two mortal enemies must make a choice: put aside their past and work together, or die alone at the hands of Xander and his ruthless gang who will stop at nothing to retrieve their lost cargo.

The Expendables 2 taught us the “Muscles from Brussels” can play a damn fine villain with ease and now he’s back on top barbarous form as the brilliantly eccentric drug smuggler Xander! The fact that Peter Hyams also sits in the director’s chair makes Enemies Closer a must watch for every single action fan out there, ever!

It left us shouting “Jean Claude Van-DAY’UM that was epic!” after watching this high-octane action-thriller from the legendary double team. Flawlessly encapsulating his flair for high flying kicks at breakneck speed and deadpan comedy, Enemies Closer is Van Damme at his all-time best in the hands of an action director honing his craft to perfection.
