After seeing this movie I was really disappointed! The story was thin and shallow and one should expect more from a movie with a theme like this. How can you expect to turn "sniper" over night? And in addition, these rifles are not especially good in close combat which they some to use them as all the time....The relationship between the main character and the female character goes from nothing to everything in a very short time, and so does the relationship between the main character and the instructor. This makes the whole plot even more unreal.The scenery, landscape and wildlife are a great addition to the movie, but unfortunately this alone is not enough.Not worth watching in my opinion.

Well, let me help you in choosing, actually not making a mistake, if you want to spend an evening with what you think will be a good action movie... What a load of nonsense... This film was a total waste of an hour and a half that I will never get back. This movie, if I can compare, was like a stew in cooking language. All the ingredients were inside, but they were all mixed and mushed up. I had great expectations since the one from 1993 with Tom Berenger, with all the modern weapons and gadgets but it let me down =( I wouldn't even recommend this movie to my worst enemy... Hope that'll help in your future choices of movie watching. Bonne lecture et a+

This movie is below average for the story line and acting, and probably average for the general public. But for anyone who spent even a short time in the armed forces, it is far from being close to militarily accurate, and specifically to the U.S. Marine Corps. It appears that the production staff did not even bother to have this film reviewed by anyone in the Marine Corps before releasing it - review of the credits did not even show a technical adviser. As an example: at the end, the Officer In Charge of the Special Operations unit identifies himself as a Major. He is dressed in a US Naval uniform. Major is a rank in the U.S. Air Force, U.S. Army and the U.S. Marine Corps - there is no such rank as Major in the U.S. Navy. Overall this movie is poorly constructed, poorly acted and poorly produced. I would be ashamed to associate my name anywhere with the production of this bad movie.

This movie just did not do it for me. There was no suspense, the acting was pretty horrid and you just did not feel engaged in the story. If you want action...this isn't the movie for you. If you wanted suspense, you're better off watching Enemy at the Gates or something similar.I think that what they tried to do was make it as simple and effective as possible and achieved only with the simplicity; nothing else. It would have worked if the story had a bit more depth, but it's about as cliché as it gets.You might want to watch it if there is absolutely nothing else though. Or if you're just smashed off your face.Seriously, I want my time back - that's how bad it is.
