Jarhead 2: Field of Fire Trailers

Battle-scarred and disillusioned by the war, Corporal Chris Merrimette is put in charge of a unit whose next mission is to resupply a remote outpost on the edge of Taliban-controlled territory. While driving through the hostile Helmand province, a Navy SEAL flags down their convoy and enlists the unit on an operation of international importance: they must help an Afghan woman famous for her defiance of the Taliban escape the country. Without tanks or air support, Merrimette and his team will need all the courage and firepower they can muster to fight their way across the war-torn country and shepherd the woman to safety.

Without tanks or air support, a corporal and his team must muster all the courage and firepower they can to fight their way across war-torn Afghanistan and shepherd an important anti-Taliban woman to safety. Jarhead 2: Field of Fire is the fun sequel and the fun overall flick that the first film failed to be which is a war film and believe me there's plenty of action here and there but please do not be mislead by the poster cause Cole Hauser is not and i repeat is not the main protagonist. This is a watchable war flick and suprisingly well made too. (7/10)

*May contain spoilers*Well, the acting was bad, the props were all around wrong and not true to facts, very cheesy and wouldn't recommend it. I think the story could have been better put together, it had potential but I didn't feel much emotion in the "emotional" scenes, overall shallow characters, inaccurate props and just not very good.Pros They explore some political aspects of the war on terror and show how pointless killing leads to nothing and true heroes are those who have the courage to do challenge the tyrants and do simple things like study.The movie doesn't portrait the marines or seals as some kind of immortal superheroes, they are shown as just humans with a tough jobWomman in the military are shown, this is great for visibility and so womman get more space in societyConsReally bad acting Outstandinly inaccurate props Cheesy dialog It doesn't make the viewer care too much about the characters, they don't feel tri-dimensional, just too plain. Overall just wasted potential and military propaganda Just another enlistment movie.

You should note that this is like a vast majority of Hollywood movies - it is a work of fiction designed to provide entertainment to the masses.As a Marine combat veteran, I have yet to see many fictional war movies that are realistic. I'm not so sure that many members of the general public could handle a realistic war movie. While it has its share of inaccurate flaws, I am quick to overlook those, opting to enjoy this as entertainment.And it does provide entertainment. The writers and producers do a reasonably decent job of portraying Marines in a combat environment, despite any specific attention to details that most people will not notice. People watch war movies to see action and effects and to this extent the movie does not disappoint, however inaccurate and unrealistic (like most movies) some of the effects are.The dialogue is a watered down version of many dialogs I encountered while in the Marine Corps so I appreciate them taking the watered down route.While there is not a deep storyline, you will gradually connect with many of the characters. Unfortunately the movie is ruined by the writers killing off most of the people you are pulling for, which is the primary downfall of the movie. The other big downfall to the movie is calling it Jarhead 2, assuming that it is a spin off of the original Jarhead. The only two ways it connects to the original movie is that it focuses on the Marine Corps and it uses Jarhead in the title. Other than that, it is a completely different movie.All in all, if you overlook the inaccuracies, like you should in most movies, and view it as purely entertainment, you will find yourself on the edge of your seat at numerous times.
