Brilliant and touching

It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.

Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

the movie its self was alright. When watching it the actors played their characters well but to the best their characters would let them. When watching the movie i assumed that you would only be watching really important parts of the training. Not for the most of the movie. Once that was finally over he started to get with this girl who he tried to buy a drink for but failed. Then to round off the movie with a very rushed fight scene at the end? especially with a kick to the head to finish the final fight? left me thinking was that actually worth my time watching? Yes i have lots of respect for the armed forces but don't believe this film did any justice to them. would of been a 4/10 but for the even worse CGI it has to be a 3/10

Well what more can I say about this movie that hasn't been said in other reviews already. I have not read Ronnie Thompsoms book so I don't know how this compares to the original story. What I can tell you is that this low budget movie was dreadful.Im not really sure where to start. There clearly wasn't enough research done on the SAS for starters. Considering this movie was predominantly about the SAS selection process, the scenes shot for the first three quarters of the film were unrealistic.The training teams behaviour attitude and professionalism was laughable and unbelievable. The hills phase was not portrayed well, and neither was the Escape and Evasion. The Jungle Phase, missed out completely and the jumps phase.....please!The acting, although OK wasn't the best, I've seen. as previously mentioned by others a little more time with an acting coach might have made the Bosnian terrorists a bit more believable.Ultimately I guess the actors were just trying to make the best of the awful script. The characters felt hollow and unfinished and I never really connected with any of them. By the end of the film I didn't really care if Mickey, the lead character made it through or notKit and equipment used was either wrong or being used incorrectly and the weapon handling throughout, in particular the last 20 minutes of the film was, to be frank....embarrassing. The final assault would probably in reality left the entire team dead and a dirty bomb on the streets of London. This movie did absolutely nothing to show the true professionalism of the most elite soldiers in the world. In the days of low budget movies, there is no excuse for turning out rubbish like this, particularly when you look at other British made low budget military movies recently made. Where I am Soldier gets everything wrong, the recent movie - Kajaki hits the nail on the head throughout. Don't waste your time watching this, its time you'll never get back, Go watch Kajaki instead and see how movies like this 'should' be made

What an opportunity these guys had to make a gritty realistic glimpse into what our lads go through during the Selection process .... The writers and director let them down as well as the producers. I bought this film on DVD and I feel hard done by wasting £7 ....so god knows what the Producers who paid for this crap movie must feel like Seriously though why didn't they think of employing an Ex SAS guy to train and overlook as an advisory? - it's so amateurish it's laughable, especially the last scene. Finally there wasn't even a decent story - no empathy for the characters who frankly are badly cast. Director and writers should be ashamed at their half hearted effort

You know, there are at least 15-20 million of people in Europe that know how Serbian sounds like. Why insult them with pathetic attempts of non-native speakers trying to wrap their mouths around it in such a terrible manner that not even native Serbian could understand what a hell they're trying to say? It's unacceptable with today's technology. You could have found local Serbian teens, pay them a hamburger to dub those parts. This way it only amounts to super low production. Otherwise I can't say I didn't find some fun in the movie, even acting is not so bad as other reviews might make you think. If it only wasn't for those joke parts in which (supposedly native?) Serbian woman butchers the language to unspeakable extent...
