Truly awful, terribly paced, painfully sincere and melodramatic, but seriously, when so many quality actors are having so much fun, how can you resist, awful Christ allegory aside. "I'd like to name it Dotty, after my wife. She's a life sucking bi&%h from which there's no escape!" Classic.

American boss eyed weirdo in bandana - check. Large, melodramatically evil Chinese antagonist - check. Van Damme having a child like hissy fit because of some talcum powder - check. Soooo funny!

Votes: 88,241 | Gross: $30.31M
Over dramatic, brutally sadistic in places, but Banderas sells it so well it's just eye catchingly magnetic too. And people were surprised by his weird and wonderful performance in The Expendables 3...
