Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Action Packed
Review: This is a typical Mark Roper, fast paced war action flick that keeps you on the edge of yor seat. There's plenty of blood and gore, good Marines and bad Russians. Brant Cottons role as the young Marine leader was dead on. A missed cast black man as the crusty Colonel with a Mike Tyson voice, was the only distraction. All in all a movie worth watching. Semper Fi..

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Definite flaws, but still entertaining...
Review: This is a very entertaining movie. It goes right into the action and shooting and doesn't stop. This is 90 minutes full of death, blood, explosions, swearing, suspense, a suicide, a rape, and surprising twists in the end.

But why not 5 stars? The action is so non-stop, that the movie could get confusing at times. They don't really clarify what is really happening very well. You kind of just have to figure it out and come up with your own conclusions by yourself. However, this does not distract from the overall enjoyment of the movie very much.

Another downpoint is that they don't develop some of the characters very well. There is a very distinct separation between the main characters and just the extras, so you know who is going to die - the characters that don't talk at all during the movie. This leads, I guess, to an apathetic reaction when they die, since the viewer doesn't really 'know' them well enough. The main characters hold up the movie rather well, though, and they have enough interesting things to say that they nearly make up for the lack of character development of the extras. However, I'm not saying that some of the main characters don't die. This movie is, like I said, full of death.

Good movie, overall. Despite some of the flaws, it is very entertaining, so your 90 minutes watching this movie would be well spent.

Rating: 5 stars
