Leave your thoughts about Death Warrant.
| EmpireWilliam ThomasUtterly mindless, but on its own snap, bang, and wallop terms, it works well enough. |
| Tampa Bay TimesMichael WinksAlthough Death Warrant resorts to several familiar plot devices, its storyline is a little more complex than those of most films of this genre. Moreover, secondary characters like Hawkins and Priest are believable and likable enough that we care what happens to them. |
| San Francisco ChronicleMick LaSalleAll the characters mumble, perhaps out of sympathy for the Dutch Van Damme's ongoing struggle with their native language. As for plot, it unravels more quickly than the mystery facing Van Damme. |
| The New York TimesVincent CanbyAll of the performances are terrible, but Joseph Porro's costume design is arresting. Mr. Van Damme and the other prisoner look as if they had been outfitted by an upscale outlet of a Banana Republic-type men's boutique. |
| User ReviewMark DFor me Van Damme's 4th best ever, good story, excellent fight scenes what more can you say 10/10 Breath taking. |
| User ReviewRohan GAnother classic from the muscles from Brussels!!! |

| User ReviewPaul Cwell umn just seen this movie 4 the 1st time n its a late 1980's/early 1990's movie...its not bad its not good its in the middle lol...its got a good cast of actors/actressess throughout this movie...i think that jean claude van damme, patrick kilpatrick, george dickerson play good parts throughout this movie..i think that the director of this Action & Adventure, Art House & International movie had done a good job of directing this movie because you never know what 2 expect throughout this movie...i think that the fight scenes/the gun shoot outs were pretty kewl throughout this movie...i think that jean claude van damme was good in this movie role its a good movie 2 watch |
