I enjoyed Van Damme in TimeCop (I thought it was one of his better movies), but if you want to see some real acting out of him, rather than a lot of whop and chop, check out a movie called "JCVD". He plays himself, and the story is about him being a down and out action actor who is having problems in a custody battle for his child. When he returns home to Brussels, he gets caught up in a bank robbery, and is thought to be one of the perps. This is a very different Van Damme movie, and I (for it being largely a foreign language film, although there is occasionally some English) enjoyed it immensely.
