Alain Lefevre is a boxer paid by a Marseille mobster to take a dive. When he wins the fight he attempts to flee to America with the mobster's girlfriend Katrina. This plan fails and he seeks escape by joining the foreign legion. As part of the legion he tangles with abusive lieutenant Steinkampf and bonds with legionnaires Luther, Mackintosh and Rosetti. The mobster discover his whereabouts and enrolls two hitmen to finish him off. With their fort under siege and enemies within, Lefevre finds that second chances are difficult to come by in the Legion.

I remember reading an article in Soldier of Fortune that French Foreign Legion Paratroopers were challenged by Marine Force Recon in an endurance course in Guiana, the Marines took 6 hours to complete the course, the Legionnaires took 45 minutes. That's got to say something about physical conditioning because Force Recon ain't no joke. Former Marine Infantry Rifleman 2006-2011. - @Thursday, May 23, 2013 6:42 PM

i loved the movie, great coreographies for the big scenes with a full group of horses and realistic enough action scenes, great writing by JCVD himself, and an excelent ambientation of the 20s, 10/10, and long live the legion. - @Sunday, October 7, 2012 9:45 PM

Really under-rated film from Jean Claude Van Damme, a chance he got to do some acting. Really enjoyed this film only problem is it was a little short for a historical epic. - @Saturday, July 14, 2012 12:42 PM
