A [[Dramedy]] starring [[Jean Claude Van Damme|Jean-Claude Van Damme]] as [[As Himself|Jean-Claude Van Damme]]. A tired, washed-out failure, struggling for work and (subsequently) money, the film starts with JCVD returning to his hometown of Brussels, Belgium. When one day going to the local Post Office to receive a wire transfer, he suddenly finds himself smack-bang in the middle of a robbery, held at gun point and marched into the back with the [[Hostage Situation|other customers and staff]], where he's forced to juggle their expectations of "the Muscles from Brussels" with the fact he's a 48 year old man who ''really'' doesn't want to get shot.
