In what world would the Vice President of the United States attend a professional hockey final? Was that whole opening scene actually supposed to be a monologue that JCVD just couldn’t nail? How ridiculous is it when he gets in goal? How great is Powers Boothe as the villain? Does this movie contain a very rare cinematic step-dad who’s actually a good guy? Should the script have condensed these two kids into one character? And do Zambonis really have big beer coolers on the front of them like that? PLUS: Cold popcorn delivery men? Is it too late for a career change? We’d join that union!Sudden Death stars Jean-Claude Van Damme, Powers Boothe, Whittni Wright, Ross Malinger, Dorian Harewood, Kate McNeil, Michael Gaston, Audra Lindley, and Raymond J. Barry as the Vice President; directed by Peter Hyams.Be sure to visit the WHM Merch shop over on Dashery and check out all the latest show-related designs you can slap on t-shirts, hats, coffee mugs, stickers, whatever!
