Mexicali (2026) Review
Director: Luke LaFontaine Cast: Bren Foster, Tania Raymonde, Plutarco Haza, Kris Van Damme, Louis Mandylor Running Time: 99 min. By Z Ravas Mexicali is a movie that knows precisely what its audience wants and decides to give it to them without delay. It’s been two short years since Bren Foster broke out on the international action scene with Life After Fighting, and the filmmakers behind Mexicali understand that fans are … Continue reading

By Kelly Warner I like Jean-Claude Van Damme. I blame/thank the good people of this here site for convincing me to give the actor’s films another look after I had dismissed them as forgettable, low-rent action movies.

By HKFanatic I don’t think it’s possible to overstate the impact “Universal Soldier: Regeneration” had on the action genre back in 2009.
