Imagine someone like Nicolas Cage, Bruce Willis or Kurt Russell in the lead, you wouldn't question the film. Throw Van Damme in the lead, you can't help but doubt his acting abilities. Legionnaire is a good film, not great, just good. The film is quite tame for Van Damme and I was shocked when I viewed it on video all those years ago. The film has a decent plot and a character for Van Damme to digest. The film has a large scope and the film feels like a grand epic in design. It's a shame this was ignored or abandoned by the producers, it's a good film. This wasn't a Van Damme film and that's why everybody either ignores, or dismisses it. I enjoyed the film.
