Nazi gold salvage action film with a trace of tongue-in-cheek humour. Navy SEALs on enforced leave try to salvage $300m of gold at the bottom of a Bosnian lake. The story is far-fetched, with plenty of macho idiocy, hammy lines, jerkily directed and overblown action sequences rushed to their conclusion. Its jingoism even stretches to a baseless scene of British soldier bashing against the backdrop of the Bosnia War. The idea that a bunch of military personnel would go-for-broke, avail themselves of military equipment so easily, risk court martial let alone risk their own deaths to rescue a fortune, and all for the benefit of a local village girl, is plain ludicrous. All in all, it has a direction reminiscent of a TV movie and but for the regular distraction of Serbian warlords doing evil, and some good underwater film capture, it fails to capture the viewer's imagination.

A team of Navy SEALs discover an underwater treasure in a Bosnian lake. Renegades was destroyed from critics and i have to be honest this film wasn't as bad as i heard, first of all J.K Simmons was great and freaking hilarious and all his scenes were freaking awesome. Sylvia Hoeks was also great not as good as she was in Blade Runner 2049 but still a good overall perfomance and the rest of the cast also does a great job as well. As far as flaws go? the main villain was forgettable and in certain scenes it drags a bit but still not the garbage fire i was expecting. (7/10)

This movie started off well then deteriorated quite quickly. Apart from the goofs mentioned in the goofs section, two Navy Seals kicking the arses of about 4 SAS men? Really!! If you can turn off your brain and watch with your mouth open then its ok.

Renegades is a badly written and mostly poorly acted action film about a special-ops team trying to retrieve hidden nazi gold from a war torn Bosnia on 1995. Apparently the nazis hid the gold in 1944 in a small town and the town was completely submerged in a man made lake. Fast forward fifty years and a special-ops team there on an unrelated mission finds out about the gold and decides to take it. Sounds interesting? Well it isn't. Overall who ever wrote this drivel couldn't do any research about the actual war in Bosnia. The first mission is ridiculous as the team is there to kidnap a Serb general responsible for war crimes...which in reality, no one at the time knew anything about. The mission is covert and yet involves driving a stolen tank through the streets and over a bridge and under water for a bit. The fact that the wanted general has a compound surrounded by a whole army is also irrelevant since they decided to leave a whole side unguarded. The flags used in the beginning also didn't even exist until 2006. Oh, and lets not forget the protagonists having drinks in a bar in Bosnia even though the west never actually had ground troops there during the war. This would be as if there was a war movie made about British Commandoes who were chasing Nazi war criminals who used the flags of West Germany in Austria in 1938 before the war started. Overall this was clearly written by someone who watched The Expendables, The A-Team, some war movies and mashed everything together creating a movie so disjointed and badly made it may cause heartburn to the viewers.
