The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

I have watched a lot of military movies and played a lot of military games. I understand that producers can not be 100% realistic because sometimes not everyone would like that. However, this was a different story. This was the most unrealistic, under budget, and cringiest military movie I have ever watched. For starters, the helicopter they deployed in was a civilian every day helicopter that you see news channels flying around in. The script made NO sense, and it was the complete opposite of realistic. The hand gestures were super overused, and what was the point if you were just going to go in guns blazing anyways? At the end when there was that one guy left, I almost threw up because that scene was so bad. Please tell me how one single guy single handedly takes out a good 200 enemy soldiers with only a handgun. And not to mention he only reloaded it like 1 time that entire scene even know he shot like 60 bullets. And at the end of that scene, someone shot an RPG at him and it landed literally 5 feet away from him, and he survived. For all you fortnite players, the splash damage should have killed him. And when basically his ENTIRE team dies, and its just him, can i ask why he still goes on another mission? They should have called of the entire operation when the first guy got injured. I made this account today just to write this review so.. :(

I'm assuming this is what happens when a marginally okay director picks up a script from a special needs kid. It's not even a good idea for a charity project but what amazes me is how they got a halfway decent cast, and what seems to be a huge amount of funding and the backing of one of the largest Hollywood production studios all to produce this atrocity. Maybe Hollywood needs to stop for a moment and take a good look at itself. I am aware that there's "movies" out there that are worse, but non of them really irritated me like this one because they clearly had more resources than they deserve to make this pile of garbage.

OK, the good.Cinematics: Really the camera work was well done. There were some impressive camera angles and zooms that were very good. Specifically the shot where it was zooming through the hollow building, very cool looking.Acting: There was some good acting, some bad. I felt that Shrapnel was very good, he can't help that he was given a bad script. He did well considering what he was given. Sizemore on the other hand was just OK. Again, some of that was the script/writers. But in comparing him to the work he did in Saving Private Ryan... don't expect that level of quality.The bad (and frustrating).Realism: One man with a pistol versus a whole town with automatic weapons? All of those weapons unloading for 30 seconds without him getting a scratch only to have him turn around and single shot them to the head with that pistol from 50 yards? Then when he finally does get hurt it's due to a glass shard from the window he jumped through. Silly. At least he had to reload.... at that point it hardly seems worth it. Might as well have given him infinite bullets since he only needed 1 per target anyways. :P Sarcasm aside, there was no attempt to make it realistic. This was recurring in one form or another in most every action scene in the movie.Tactics: I'm not military. I do however have profound respect for what they do, and to represent the Navy SEALs this way is disrespectful. There are a ton of scenes where the whole squad was standing fully exposed and firing at anything that popped their heads up, all the while being fired upon. Whenever they were faced with a challenging situation the solution was almost always, "Stand up and blast it". From all that I've seen, our SEALs are good because they train hard and study hard. They know their craft. In this portrayal the characters were just lucky the bad guys didn't know how to shoot.Consistency: One thing that bugged me was that the uniforms were all over the place. It was almost like the production team said, "Oh this looks like a military uniform, we can use that!" All in all I would say: Don't waste your time. I waited it out and felt that I spent most of the time rolling my eyes at the ridiculousness of it all. There were some good points, but it was mostly a stinker. 3/10

Shooting shooting shooting this movie started with shooting and ended with shooting. And it still got a very low ratings i know it isn't all about the shooting but you gotta give it credit its so nice to a action movie with such shootings and interesting story line i heard there were other Behind enemy line movies but if i have watched them this would probably be my favorite among them but i have not see any of those so i would just stick to this one those shooting were really nice and its also got a little R in it so if you haven't seen this movie then give it a try and you wont be sorry but if you have got a problem with this review then give me a tweet on twitter @iamowomizz
