Enemies Closer is a 2013 American action thriller film directed by Peter Hyams and starring Jean-Claude Van Damme, Tom Everett Scott, Orlando Jones and Linzey Cocker. It is Hyams' third directorial collaboration with Van Damme, following 1994's Timecop and 1995's Sudden Death,[3] and the first of these to feature the actor in a villainous role.[4] The plot follows former Navy SEAL Henry Taylor (Scott) who is marked for death by the mourning brother of a comrade he left behind, only to have to team up with him when they both become targets of the deranged crime lord Xander (Van Damme).[4] The film received generally positive reviews from critics, with most reviewers singling out Van Damme's flamboyant performance.
