Some days are perfectly normal and everything goes as expected. Other days bring you the news that Jean-Claude Van Damme taking to his Facebook page to announce he really wants to star in 'The Avengers 2.' Because, you know, that makes perfect sense.

Coming at us riding a wave of surprisingly good reviews and even a small festival run, 'Universal Soldier: Day of Reckoning' is the latest entry in the durable head-smashing franchise. This one once again features the blank stares of Jean-Claude Van Damme and Dolph Lundgren, while also showcasing the newest action hero on the block, Scott Adkins.

But for what it is -- the sixth film in the 'Universal Soldier' franchise (but only the third in current continuity) -- it's pretty damn good; muscular, atmospheric and surprisingly scary.
