Did the reviewer even watch the movie past the first 15 minutes? Not to spoil the movie or anything, but that is one of the key plot twists of the movie, how they decide to go against what they have done for years of being mercenaries and fight for a cause... next time try watching the movie you review. Great role model of men willing to stand up for those incapable of defending themselves

What an awful movie. There were funny parts, but you can see all of them in the 3 or 4 different trailers out there... literally the best parts of the movie are shown in the trailers.

Overtly left-wing, great visuals and special effects
This movie is very left-wing, eco-focused, and anti-American. If you can get past that, the visuals are incredible and special effects are also very well done. Can't belive you gave it 4 out of 5 stars though... let's try not to be so overtly PC

Awful Awful Awful movie
Did I mention how terrible this movie is? I have a degree in chemistry, and when I was at school my Environmental Chemistry class watched this movie to see a perfect example of the 'junk science' that is pervading the scientific community. Seriously people need to learn not to trust graphs that aren't labeled (hint you can make up whatever you want on those), and go do a google search of 'climategate' for the reality of what a farce and waste of time, effort, money, and resources 'global warming' really is (oh wait, I think the PC term today is 'climate change' since the temperature apparently hasn't been rising like they say)

the acting was sub-par... extremely disappointing because of how badly a movie with this message is needed in our culture today. By the way, I'm pretty sure if all you have to list in the "Drinking, drugs, & smoking" category is hot sauce, you are probably safe just leaving that category the same as you did with 'Language": Not an issue

Great clean action movie
This is the reality of who and what we are fighting in the middle east. Two out of five stars... come on now. Not only is this a good clean action movie, but it does a good job showing the resolve of our enemies, and thus the resolve with which we must face them. Just because a movie is violent doesn't mean you need to give low ratings

Obviously not a kids movie
Not all violence is bad. I have several relatives who fought in WWII, and their biggest worry in high school was that they wouldn't medically/physically qualify for one of the armed services. I think the willing and selfless sacrifice of that generation might be a little more relevant topic of discussion for a family than "Do you think those man [sic] can be excused for such a breakdown of discipline?"

A very well made British alternative to '24'
I love the quality of this BBC production. Very realistic, and not over the top in any way. Obviously not for children. I wish American TV producers could come up with an action show this addicting

One of my all time favorites. I cannot think of any legitimate complaints one could have concerning this movie.

Quite possibly the best war movie ever made
"We sleep soundly in our beds because rough men stand ready in the night to visit violence on those who would do us harm."
- Winston Churchill.
Watch this movie and be thankful for those willing to put their life on the line for our freedom.
This movie avoids dealing with the number of Somalis who die? I quote from the text that appears at the end of the movie: "1000 Somalis died and 19 Americans lost their lives in the conflict"
The superb acting, amazing special effects, and true story combine to make one the greatest movies ever made.
