AutCuddly Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,

FirstWitch A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

Michael Ledo This film doesn't seem to be connected to the other two and I don't believe they even used the disparaging term "Jarhead." Evan Albright (Charlie Weber) a lone wolf hero type, is assigned a gravy job at a US embassy in an unnamed Middle East country that has ISIS up north. In the first 30 minutes Albright (what's in a name) learns there is no "I" in team, the blond security agent (Sasha Jackson) that comes on to him, doesn't date marines; the ambassador (Stephen Hogan) doesn't have a personality; and his boss Gunny Raines (Scott Adkins) is a stickler to the chain of command. Albright believes an attack is imminent and no one believes him. At about 30 minutes into the film, it hits the fan and the gun fire doesn't let up until the end of the film.This was a fairly formula film with limited unimportant twists. Dennis Haysbert plays a major in this film, a demotion from his normal general or colonel rank. The film takes time to let us know the characters before the over blown shoot out occurs. The film also tosses in some preachy lines of "us vs them" that were a bit corny, but has appeal to those attracted to this type of action film. Albright messes up in one scene and does his Richard Gere " An Officer and a Gentleman " breakdown impersonation, repeating much of the same lines... "I got no where else to go." Groan. Seriously Chad? Those were the best lines you could come up with?However looking beyond the film's short comings, it was a high action, heart pumping thriller with characters.Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity.

phanthinga You don't have to be a fan of Jarhead series to enjoy Jarhead 3: The Siege.Directed by William Kaufman a good but underrated action movie director starring Charlie Weber as the lead role and Scott Adkins as the supporting role but still awesome nonetheless.The acting is fine for the most part but when it come to action scene if you familiar with William works you know how good it is.The gun fight is so intense and bloody that guarantee keep you on the edge of your seat.

quasides It could have been an 80s Movie. We have our loose Gun/Action Hero, we have our blond hottie that will run around with a gun and fihgt like the bigguys and we have our Villain running around always angry.The acting is between mediocre acceptable and bad but not awful. The technical aspects are partly not even bad. Seem like there was some serious training involved.Sadly all that seems to be forgotten when it comes to the actual gunbattles. At least they change sometimes a magazine but it is still those endless rapidfire gunbattles with 30 round mags that hold 200 bullets. And while the good guys got easy overrun in an heavyguarded and well defended Embassy and die like flys, at the end it turns around. While having close to no cover, outgunned, out manned the terrorists drop like flys. So the action part is 80s style, but still try to be serious like a modern Warmovie, trys but fails to be realistic. It even has some slightly critic undertone about politics and agenda of the government, same time it ends up in a bug hurra marines are the best. And of course our Loose Gun turns out to be the superhero that saves the day...All in all a weird mixture, not really entertaining but also not too boring, something you shouldn't think when you see it and you wont after you did.

BasicLogic I often wondered why some actually not bad or even serious movies would insert a totally unnecessary cast, a comic-relief like jerk in the screenplays to completely ridicule and ruin them. The worst outcome is putting such clown figures in an action movie. We had seen Bruce Lee's martial art Kung-Fu movies stupidly arranged such totally unnecessary and inappropriate role and degenerated those supposedly suspenseful action movies into not quite serious enough ones. This "Jarhed 3" was another victim by such stupid arrangement in its screenplay, allowing a totally unnecessary character, Blake, played by the annoying Filipino American, Dante Basco, to mess up with and almost ruined it soon as this jerk-like guy holding a camcorder, appeared on the screen.I am not so sure about the connections between the screenplay writer(s), the director, or even the executive producer(s) with Dante Basco, but one thing I could definitely assure is this sore-thumb like character completely torpedoed this, by general standard, not too bad, albeit quite serious action TV movie. Of course, there are many flaws and loopholes inherited from the screenplay's scenario and plot, but except this jerk-like stand-alone Blake character, all the other players did their jobs quite seriously. The clown character in a serious U.S. Embassy is not just possible but unthinkable, that stupid arrangement simply and totally ruined the believability of this movie, even there were many settings, furniture, bullet-proof windows and glasses were so vividly and realistically destroyed.The Chinese got an old saying to describe such inappropriate careless arrangement that doomed the outcome: "A whole well-prepared pot of porridge is ruin by just one piece of small rat dropping", Blake/Dante Basco, is indeed that piece of rat dropping.
