7/10
Interesting but stupid

Jean-Claude Van Johnson is an Amazon Prime mini-series about Jean-Claude Van Damme's career as a global martial-arts actor and as a secret agent with a surname "Johnson." After years of retirement Johnson is pulled back into action to have a chance encounter with his ex girlfriend Vanessa who is played by Kat Foster. His acting agent is played by Phylicia Rashad and her boss is played by Richard Schiff. JC finds out the truth about his acting agency once he got rid of the competition who is headed by Carlo Rota. The series has numerous references to JC's previous movies and characters from Timecop to Sudden Death to Double Impact and Kickboxer. Alex Carter, Moises Arias, and Bar Paly costarred in this series. Dave Callahan created and wrote this storyline and it was produced by Ridley Scott. The story was a bit over the top, silly and quite funny. Callahan has had quite a list of good list of hit movies like Shang-Chi, Spider-Man and Expendables. I thought this was a miss for him but it was funny.
