At one point in the movie, where the captured captain is being tortured, when they electrified her and other people were holding her, the captain felt the shock and other people didn't feel a damn thing. Even a primary grade student would also know that if someone is holding other person and if the other person feels the shock then the first person would also feel the shock.to put it in the simple way "A Bullshit movie". Very poor acting, low budget, insane direction and no use of brain. The rebels just jump in front of marines without thinking that if they are able to kill one person from that point, they can kill more but it seems that director think that rebels have no brain and they don't use any tactics then he is doing a huge mistake. I think the director of this movie should go and train marines. They might win the "the war for oil and safer Israel" :D

As a former member of The Australian Army, I feel that this movie is one of the worst, if not the worst movie I have ever seen. My first thought in the opening scene, "A daylight opposed landing????? What the...." (in reality a small force would never land in the middle of a beach with inflatables, opposed or not).Then to add even more insult, the long flowing, unrestrained hair on a "U.S. Officer" complete with glossy lipstick, both chargeable offences, I wonder who the "advisor" was and having served alongside members of the Phillipino army the comments made were very offensive and not just to women. The storyline did have potential, but the lack of credibility and poor acting killed it in the first few minutes. I found this movie to be an insult to the intelligence of even the most naive movie-goer and I recommend that if you feel you must watch it, then do so at high speed, the "keystone cops" feeling thus created at least deserves a laugh. Lastly the synopsis on the back is truly misleading and to say that this is in the same league as such epic greats as "Saving Private Ryan" and "Behind Enemy Lines" is a direct insult to the cast and crew of these, and I for one am amazed that Sony even put there name to it, all that have watched this bile should commence a class action against all involved in the production.

This was the worst war movie I have ever been able to finish. The budget apparently was not big enough to hire an adviser with even a minimal amount of military knowledge. At the beginning they say the night before they did some bombing to clear out a valley, but they try to convince you that they are performing some kind of covert special ops mission.One problem, it is daytime. Also the prior days bombing not only did not enable them to land on the beach without getting fired on, it probably alerted every bad guy that was nearby. Also the soldiers are getting picked off left and right at the beginning. You would have thought it was the Swedish or Belgian troops prancing their way to talk the terrorists into a willing plunge off the nearest cliff. And of course the terrorist are not Arab. I mean everybody knows that a majority of terrorist attacks are carried out by Phillipinos out on a major Jihad. Overall I give it a 2.

this was probably one of the worst war movies i have seen in a really long time. from the very beginning it had the feeling of wanting to be a "saving private ryan" type film, but in my opinion, never made it past a re-enactment of one of those commando war hero computer games. very bad acting and continuity mistakes all throughout the film made it very clear that they weren't trying very hard to produce a quality film. it was difficult watching these guys recite their lines instead of actually acting. i was tempted to just turn it off, unfortunately i did finish it and will never get those 90 minutes of my life back! so, do yourself a favor and go rent saving private ryan, tears of the sun, or pretty much any other war movie in place of this one. you can thank me later.
