Story Synopsis

Knock Off is a non-stop, action packed thriller starring Jean-Claude Van Damme as Marcus Ray, a sales representative for V SIX Jeans in Hong Kong. As the drama and pageantry of the 1997 return of Hong Kong from British to Chinese rule unfolds, Ray gets wind of a terrifying Russian Mafia scheme to bring deadly microbombs to the worldwide terrorist market. At the same time, Karen Leigh (Lela Rochon), Executive Vice-President at V SIX Jeans, learns that the jeans are being copied into cheap knock offs. Leigh, an undercover CIA agent immediately suspects Ray and his fellow rep—also an undercover CIA agent—Tommy Hendricks (Rob Schneider) are behind the racket. But the three soon learn that the microbombs are being planted in the bootleg jeans.
