Amazon Pilot Series: Jean-Claude Van Johnson

Masterfully shot, this was my favorite of the three new Amazon pilots.  For those of you who thought Jean-Claude Van Damme died, which may or may not include me, he is surely alive.  The pilot is an existential and hilarious look at Van Damme's life.  The storyline is so ridiculously fake that it eventually feels like reality.  Not to mention, every shot is beautiful and the lighting is a perfect modern noir-esque style.  As a 30-minute episode, it is clear that a lot of time went into the making of every single scene.  Van Damme's duel lives are spectacularly intertwined between his acting career and spy life.  Furthermore, the martial arts aspect of the episode is well-coordinated and smooth.  The action hero who is usually cheesy and overcasted finally gives back to his followers with Jean-Claude Van Johnson.  This is why I beg each and every one of you guys to check it out and help it become a new Amazon series.  This show has to become a thing because of it's potential.  Never before has Van Damme had such a purpose on the screen.
