In "Blooming Kick," Jean-Claude Van Damme steps out of the action-packed world and into the whimsical realm of comedy as Jacques Verdant, a retired martial arts champion turned suburban gardener. Seeking a peaceful life, Jacques trades in his black belt for a pair of pruning shears, hoping to cultivate tranquility in the sleepy town of Petunia Grove.
However, his plans for serenity are uprooted when he discovers that the local gardening competition, the prestigious "Golden Trowel," is more cutthroat than he ever imagined. Jacques must navigate eccentric neighbors, underhanded rivals, and mischievous garden pests, all while trying to impress the charming and fiercely competitive gardening club president, Lily Bloom (played by a beloved comedic actress).
As he trims hedges and plants flowers, Jacques inadvertently brings his martial arts flair to the gardening world, leading to a series of hilarious and unexpected events. From high-flying kicks to squash out gophers to using nunchucks to stake tomato plants, his unorthodox methods turn the gardening community upside down.
With the competition looming, Jacques must combine his newfound green thumb with his legendary combat skills to outwit his rivals
