Описание: ★ September 13, 1996 — © Columbia Pictures. Music video by Robert Folk performing ''Extreme Reaction''

Alain Moreau (Jean-Claude Van Damme) is a cop in Nice, France. Alain is at a funeral that is being held for a fellow cop, when Alain's partner Sebastien (Jean-Hugues Anglade) shows up, and requests for his presence at a crime scene. When they arrive, Sebastien shows Alain a dead body of someone that looks exactly like him. They discover that his name was Mikhail Suverov, who was born on exactly the same day Alain was. As it turns out, Mikhail is the twin brother Alain never knew he had.

Tracing his brother's steps back to New York City, Alain discovers that Mikhail was a member of the Russian Mafia, who was chased down and killed when he attempted to get out. Of course, now Alain is mistaken for Mikhail, who was also mixed up in a series of affairs concerning the FBI and the russian mafia. With his only real ally being Mikhail's fiancé Alex Bartlett (Natasha Henstridge), Alain sets out to avenge his brother's death, which is complicated not only by the Mafia, but by two corrupt FBI agents.

"Maximum Risk" has more than its fair share of jolts and can easily be enjoyed for its superbly choreographed ballet of blood, blasts and blows. Yet the echoes of past actioners, including Van Damme's earlier twin-brother saga, "Double Impact," cast a cynical shadow over the pic that chips away at the fun." author: Leonard Krady — Variety Reviews.
