Wow, this is a REALLY bad movie!
Waste of time
Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.
The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
It has a hijacked submarine, a hijacked ocean liner, a hijacked missile base, a Shakespeare quoting villain not to mention the eponymous Delta Force. Is it good? Well, it's OK. The villain has a complicated scheme to obtain disappointingly lots of money and Delta Force are put into action and win the day. The action is OK, the acting is OK, the music is OK. The explosions are good and it is fun to see the villains mown down in slow motion with the heroes hardly getting a scratch, like a video game, but it eventually starts to pall. The film is however much too long. It could have done without the initial sequence of the Delta Force rescuing a prisoner from Iraq and gone into the main plot straight away.
What can you say after watching this movie? That is, if you had the interest and concentration to see it to the end. I was left speechless, due to the amazingly dull story, annoying situations where one American equals that of a fifty or more Iraqis, and boring dialogue. I think that if this movie has something to teach, it probably goes like "Don't screw with US, or we'll come and kick your butts". Plus, this film truly encourages and votes for killing masses of foreigners, in the name of war. I got the image of tackling chess pieces out of the playing board. Except, now it's fast and there's not so much thinking. And on top of that.. no character there has any spirit; then, how can you care at all what happens to any of them. Excluding war movie fans with no taste, I wouldn't recommend this to anyone. There should always be something more interesting to do.
Can anyone give me a reason why only one American dies in this movie, and when he does, it is supposed to be a very emotional scene, yet when the Operation Delta Force team kills hundreds of Russians, in slow-motion action scenes, or thousands of Arabs, also in slow-motion action scenes, you are supposed to cheer and say "Take that, you non-American monsters!". I know I used "slow-motion action scenes" a lot, but that is because every action scene in this movie is in, you guessed it, slow-motion. Every last one of them... And this squad should be called "Invincible Slow-Motion Bullet-Dodging Force", since they seem to have supernatural powers that help them to dodge bullets. And if this supernatural power fails, they have some kind of regeneration superpower, which is all they need to kill the complete non-American army that stands between them and victory. By this point, nobody cares since they have been put to sleep by another laughable slow-motion action scene... That is if they are not laughing out loud at the bad acting, cheesy dialogues and incredibly poor story. Which is what I did... The cast is made of unknown actors, which will probably remain unknown since they don't even play characters. They are just playing guys with guns(and, lets not forget, superpowers)... The only quality is that the special effects are surprisingly not that bad(although they are in slow-motion) for a TV movie... But it still sucks... and at the same time is so bad it's good... OK, maybe at the end it gets a little too repetitive...25%
A no-name cast, so-so plot, lots of action, and you've got a reasonable rainy afternoon movie. It was a miserable day, and all I wanted was a simple, typical action flick that wasn't preachy didn't worry about being politically correct (well, not too worried), and didn't require absolute attention to keep up with the plot. I didn't expect the greatest show on earth, and was entertained for 108 minutes. That's what I wanted, that's what I got.
