Jean-Claude Van Johnson: Pilot (2016)
Exceeded all expectations...
I watched this thinking "here is another generic JCVD pay check film"
. But was I wrong?!
If you've watched all his 80's and 90's films you will instantly get all the inside jokes, which made it that much more enjoyable to watch. JCVD doesn't take himself too seriously, he knows people see him as a washed out actor these days and he plays on that. I laughed out loud several times, which is a sign that this is a good watch as usually I'm a miserable ****.
The story revolves around JCVD, who plays a fictional version of himself. He's the martial arts, action hero we all know and love. However, he also moonlights as Johnson, some kind of Special Ops character in between film shoots. As strange as that setup sounds, it actually works.
Amazon, please order as many episodes of this as you can!
