Summary: Awesome Movie! 100% Pure Adrenaline
Review: All I know is this movie ROCKED DA HOUSE!! Lloyd Braun was awesome- I can't wait for the sequel. Brian Dennehy is awesome as the general, and Corbin Bernson hasn't been this awesome since Major League III: Back to the Minors. The women are unbelievable and Lloyd Braun's has a great body! I recommend this movie to everyone! I am fifteen and I want to see more movies like this one. Keep up the good work!! I couldn't expect better work from the director of Vampirella and Body Chemistry 4. I applaud you.

My girlfriend especially loved it- and she is a complete dolt. My recommendation is to grab this movie, a bucket of popcorn, and a pookah shell necklace and you are straight. Lloyd Braun- keep it up. And this was like a million times better than navy seals. That movie was stupid.

Summary: so bad its actually funny
Review: Definitely not Blackhawck down. Some OK special effects, but the acting is really painful to watch (specially Matt McCoy firing a gun), low babe value and bad on racial stereotypes. But what is really irritating is that it is a movie about Rangers, who's motto is that no one is left behind (everyone makes it back, dead or alive). In their first raid they lose one member (whom they leave lying there on the floor) and the whole problem begins because someone who is betrayed is simply left behind...
It gets worse from then on.

Summary: P.U. This movie stinks!!!
Review: Don't bother to watch this. The acting stinks, special effects stink, directing stinks, story stinks, writing stinks, and the camera work stinks. Rangers change clothes between drop plane and landing, inside of drop plane looks like an office hallway with a net hung on the wall. Matt McCoy keeps getting this stunned look like he just remembered he left the baby on the car roof. The inside of the Pentagon is mauve and looks like it was filmed in an abandoned dot.com office. There are no redeeming qualities except maybe as an educational tool about how not to make a movie.

I put this in the movie rental drop box so no one would see me returning it.

Summary: Rip-O-Rama
Review: I rented this thinking as others have, that there would be some good tactical warfare.
There is none so I was disapointed, its actually kind of funny in a weird way (the lead actor looks scared 90% of the time-guess he knew that the script blows chunks) and he blinks every time he pull the trigger. Perhaps he should lay off the coffee and work at the 7-11.
Bad story waek acting and generally a true ripoff.

Summary: i can't believe it......
Review: I was attracted by the cover of this DVD. The cover, as you can see, was related to the Engulf war. However this is totally not the case..... The story of the "Rangers" is nothing about the engulf war. Moreover, there is rare gun fight in the movie. The worst thing which i can't believe is that i find many scene of the film are copied from a old movie called "navy seals".... How come !!!!!! This is the worst DVD i have ever brought.

Summary: Seat-Filling-Non-Stop-Rip-Off-Action Movie
Review: If I coud give this movie a negative star, I would. This movie also appealed to me by the box cover. I was hoping for some real gunfights like in Rogue Force or Black Hawk Down. However the only connection I could find between this movie and the US Rangers is the movie title. I counted 1/2 of all the gunfight scenes were ripped from other movies such as Navy SEALS (I think I saw Charlie Sheen in one scene) Invasion USA and others.

The acting was that like the first Resident Evil game (if you've played it) totally monotone on all the actors behalf. It was just plain awefull. The stereotypical African American characters were just sickening. In the first scene, one of them starts talking 'ghetto' and starts comparing his equiptment to his Grandmother's 'equiptment' which was absolutly sick.

And like heck the US would let some 100+ terrorists invade the US. They would stop them dead in their tracks, and on top of that, this appeared to be an ambush and the national guard still bouched it up. Yeah right! And what moron could break into the CIA headquarters with a LAW rocket launcher and launch it and get away with it. Maybe a CIA or Delta Boy could do it but a Ranger, no way.

Oh, and while we're talking about Rangers. I'm no Ranger but I believe the Ranger creed is "Leave No Man Behind" as stated on the Black Hawk Down cover. Well in the first scene what do they do? They leave not only one, but two men behind. And what's funny is the main Ranger talks about how he never leaves a man behind later on in the film.

I can't believe I fell for buying this one. I guess they were right when they said "Don't judge a movie by it's cover." I strongly recomend NOT buying this one. ...

Summary: Nothing to do with real Army Rangers
Review: If you're looking for a tactical action adventure... go rent Navy Seals or Rogue Force... This extremely low budget movie was produced directly to DVD - so you can imagine the below average presentation. Most of the action contained within the movie are footage taken from other movies - Red Heat, Navy Seals, Invasion USA (much superior movies with larger production budgets). The one saving grace to this DVD is the informative commentary by the Director and main lead actor. They often point out the low budget techniques they utilized along with humorous comments on their own movie. Like the dude above, I was attracted to the box art - hoping for an action movie that has desert warfare - the kind of work REAL Army Rangers do (there's absolutely NO real warfare in this movie).

This, along with US Seals are a sick kind of diversion for people with too much time and money on their hands. Rent it for the Commentary if you have absolutely nothing to do (and if you're made of money). Buy it? Send me 30 bucks so I can kick you in the balls - it's a kinder fate.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Worst Military Movie Ever
Review: Like all of the other reviewers of this film, I was attracted by a combination of the box art and the description on the back of the DVD, which promised a good action film. And thus began one of the saddest two hours of my life.
The first action scene is completely lifted out of the much better film "Navy Seals" (if you look closely you can actually see Charlie Sheen in one of the scenes), which begats many bad acting moments. From here, there's a corrupt general with a blond bombshell intern, the thoroughly ineffective hero (Matt McCoy, who is best known for his astounding turn as Nick Lassard in "Police Academy 5" and . . . "Police Academy 6") who doesn't do anything, and two African-American characters who are the most blatant racial stereotypes in recent action films.
Oh, and did I mention that this film also culls action scenes from "Invasion USA" and "Red Heat?" However, the film is unintentionally hilarious - and for that alone it's worth a rental, but definitely not a buy.
