VeteranLight I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.
Claysaba Excellent, Without a doubt!!
Hadrina The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
Matylda Swan It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.
Stanjaudit This movie may not be realistic to some reviewers but some folks are just to critical and can't enjoy the professional actions of actors. These people do take pride in their profession contrary to what some folk may think. In today's environment we do have women going into direct combat, albeit in support positions as they drive support trucks in convoy. However, those trucks come under attack by small arms fire or IEDs ( Improvised Explosive Devise). These IEDs kill or wound independently regardless of sex, age or rank. So lay of the actors in this movie. They are doing there best to give you some entertainment. My son was a ranger and it was difficult training just as any of our secure fighting forces whether it be seals, delta force, or marine re-con. So just enjoy a movie and lay off the actors, the directors, technicians and others it takes to make a movie.
kaylaw3 I won't say this is the *worst* movie I've ever seen but it comes extremely close.The heroine - discharged from her military assignment with the CIA - is given a chance to join a co-ed group of Army Rangers trainees by her female Brigadier General commander. Her group goes through such brutal training as having to poop their pants and stand in a pond. Her SERE training consists of having her shirt torn open, getting slapped and being shocked on her clothed thigh with a cattle prod immediately before she is congratulated on her ability to withstand this brief encounter and welcomed as a new Ranger.For some reason there is an attempt at inserting a love interest in this movie. I really don't know why. Maybe there were plans for nudity which were later abandoned. Probably because there was no interest in seeing any of the actresses nude.Other than the repeated scenes of the guys playing around with the tampon machine in the co-ed shower - where everyone is always fully clothed - the highlights consist of women in totally unbelievable combat scenes rescuing male soldiers. Wait... I remember some crying... And something about one of the male soldiers betraying his comrades...Feel lucky if you miss this movie.
Tbisping1 Maybe because I spent 13 months in Korea, is why I had such high expectations for this film. The device has not even been conceived of yet that could my measure my disgust for this unrealistic piece of garbage! Everything about the military and Korea was incorrect. The "enemy" in the film was played by Filipino actors, who bore no resemblance to actual Koreans. The producers violated Hollywood's first rule for a war movie with an Asian theme...Get every available Japanese, Korean, and Chinese actor you can!!! For all it's flaws, at least the TV show "MASH" got this right!! Lastly, and I think why I hated this movie so much, the U.S. stopped patrolling the DMZ, in 1991. We still have people in Korea, but we no longer actively patrol the DMZ. This team wouldn't even exist. The film might have stood a chance if the producers made the team CIA, instead of Army. Oh well, you pay for cable and you get what cable shows. At least I didn't waste more money on a rental!
Kaymarie I wanted so much to like a movie staring my two favorite actors--Adrian Paul and Michael Biehn. I'm not your crazed fan type. . .but somehow these two men have stuck in my imagination. Both have (for the most part) appeared in works with good scripts and intelligent characters.Why this turkey? The story line-- women saving a male black ops team in Korea-- was painful. The film looked as if it had been shot with an old 8mm on a budget of $1.95.I hope my favorite guys had a good time or got paid a lot of money. It was painful to watch.
