Fantastic!
A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.
It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.
Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.
Navy SEAL team 7 is in Colombia to battle the FARC and the drug cartels. Lt. Macklin (Joe Manganiello) leads his men to a compound deep in the jungle. There they find a peace conference between FARC and government troops. Suddenly mysterious forces attack the conference and the SEALs. The SEALs are framed for the whole incident.The action is much better the BEL 2. They've got rid of all that horrific cheesy effects. It's a much better looking movie. Joe Manganiello is a good lead actor. They have a pretty good movie going when they get to the compound.The story is questionable. The whole conspiracy is questionable. But how 2 guys with barely functional language skills could take on so much is too unreasonable. One bad guy asked if he thinks he's Rambo. The guy comes back saying he's more John McClane. No! This is full on Rambo.
STAR RATING: ***** Saturday Night **** Friday Night *** Friday Morning ** Sunday Night * Monday Morning WWE productions has moved it's weight into this third instalment of the Behind Enemy Lines franchise, with a film that shows how far it's come from it's original source material. While the original was little more than a forgettable, clichéd action film with two big name stars to propel it along, here the series has moved into a whole new ball game. Opening with a monologue about how the notorious FARC guerrillas have waged a war of terror on Colombia for many years and how US interference has worsened the situation in the manner of a public service film, what follows is a remarkably cheap looking film that looks like it's been filmed with a cheap video camera. Wrestling sensation 'Mr.Kennedy' is touted as the big star, but he feels more like a supporting player throughout, leaving the rest of the no name cast to go through the motions, including rent-a-supporting-star Keith David who'll seem to pop up in any old dross like this. Truly not a plus point in sight. *
This straight to DVD release is the third installment of the 2001 film staring Owen Wilson and Gene Hackman. Personally, I didn't even know there was a sequel to the original, but considering this is a WWE produced film staring Mr Kennedy, who was I not to watch this? The storyline is pretty basic, navy SEALS organize an attack on Colombian Special Forces to clear their names and rescue a hostage which is one of their own. After watching this I can see why this was a straight to DVD release, it was really bad! The acting was remarkably horrible, and the storyline was equally as bad, but I wasn't expecting anything more then a cheesy action/war film with cheesy one liners, and that is exactly what I got! My Rating: 3.5/10For more Movie and TV News, Reviews and Rumours go to: www.facebook.com/tvmovienews
It starts with an explosion where the people have obviously been replaced by dolls and ends with a knife-fight that is treated like a sword fight. During this fight, one of the guys gets put into an arm-bar (a likely move given the hostile intentions) You will do nothing but kick yourself for wasting your time on this film. The whole idea of the movie and the events that transpire just end up being dull and careless. The attempt at a twist just makes you wish they would have ended the film during the opening credits. This movie does not have any highlights or reasons to keep you watching. If you do watch this movie I hope you can find some sort of enjoyment out of it.
