Last Minute Plans: JCVD at the Ritz

( From the Alamo Website )

"Van Damme is back! JCVD, a meta-movie parody par excellence, constitutes the headiest stretch of the beefy star's career since, well, ever. Playing "himself," Van Damme reveals heretofore hidden third dimension to his monosyllabic persona. Including a tonally opposite pair of longish takes -- one a wonderfully absurd ode to star's martial-arts moves, the other a tear- and prayer-filled Van Damme monologue that must be seen to be believed." - Variety

"That JCVD is able to show you a new face to its star and subject at all makes it a major accomplishment. That it does so with such an incredible sense of style, insight, and pure entertainment value makes it a revelation. Ladies and gentlemen, after spending decades turning out lowest-common-denominator action pictures Jean Claude Van Damme has just made a truly great film. No matter what criteria you may use to judge it - scripting, cinematography, humour, action, even dramatic performance - JCVD is one remarkable piece of work." - Todd Brown, Twitch Film

A reality-twisting cousin to BEING JOHN MALKOVICH -- showcases a Van Damme who's sly like a fox about his own image." - Lisa Schwarzbaum, Entertainment Weekly

Short notice, but ... if your schedule allows for it ( and your head doesn't hurt too much ! ) please join us at the Ritz.

Actually start time for the show is 4:30 PM, but seating generally starts 45 minutes before
the start of the show. I'll wait in the lobby until they start to let us into the theater.

Hope to see you there.
