One of those Dolph movies that would have benefited from a bigger budget and better script. In fact it's kinda like an early Command Performance in the way that it has MTV style vibrant colours. Dolph would have been good to direct Detention, and it was only a year before he directed for the first time. Command Performance still ranks amongst Dolph's recent best for me and if Detention were to feature a little bit of that Dolph directing magic, it woulda been so much better.
By the way, that Chinese cover actually uses the artwork from the film SINAV which Van Damme cameoed in, they've replaced Van Damme's head with Dolph's and given him a gun - crazy!
