ActionAdventureCrimeDramaThriller110 min

After their parents are murdered, infant twins Alex and Chad are split across continents and raised into very different men: Alex grows up a petty crook in Hong Kong, while Chad is brought up in Paris by the family retainer. Jean-Claude Van Damme takes both roles, with Alex carrying the scars of the streets and Chad arriving with a polished self-assurance. When Chad finally finds his brother, he wants revenge on the man he believes is tied to their parents’ killing and now moves through Alex’s world. Geoffrey Lewis is the guardian who raised Chad, as the reunion pulls both brothers into gang rivalries, suspicion, and close-quarters fights.
