KILL 'EM ALL is a hugely disappointing B-movie action flick from the former great Van Damme, who once upon a time could be relied upon to deliver the goods when it came to entertainment. Not so here. The story is convoluted and muddled, full of needless flashbacks and repetition, involving our aged hero tackling mercenaries in a hospital. Daniel Bernhardt, formerly a Van Damme rip-off in the '90s, plays the lead bad guy and Van Damme's own son has a role too. I felt like this was shot in Eastern Europe but it turns out to have been made in Mississippi. Some of the choreography looks okay, but it's hard to tell in combination with the insipid direction.

Plot summary
After a massive shootout, a mysterious stranger (Van Damme) arrives at a local hospital on the brink of death. Then, a foreign gang brazenly comes to the hospital to hunt him down. His nurse, the sole surviving witness to the follow-up shootout, must face an FBI interrogation that unlocks a plot of international intrigue and revenge. With enough twists and turns, KILL'EM ALL will keep you guessing until the final bullet is fired.

Hugely disappointing
messy
I should pay attention to imdb ranking. The movie was messy.
Please focus on the fights!
Some people wrote that one cannot expect "Hard Target"- like quality from an aged van Damme. Well, I agree that it's difficult to work with a small budget. A small budget film won't look like a Marvel production, period. Why don't the people involved focus on fight choreography instead? I don't get it. JCVD's age shouldn't matter. Fighting is where the film crew could score points but they don't. It seems like very few people in Hollywood actually get what a beautiful fight could look like. In the words of America's orange clown: SAD! Please watch some old Jackie Chan movies and make fighting visually entertaining again. Nobody cares about a story in a B-Movie. Not really, anyway. We, the old fans of JCVD, just wanna see him perform martial arts. That's it!
