Add a CommentThe best SEAL movie I have ever seen. The acting wasn't bad considering the fact that the majority of the cast were NOT professional actors. So for all those couldn't get past the acting, cut the SEALs, the SWCCs, the Marines and the Navy in general some MAJOR slack! They're obviously better shooters than they are actors, so be little more respectful and understanding in the light of the sacrifices they made dutifully serving their country. Sure this movie is full of American patriotism but the threats in this movie are very real. No movie is perfect and this certainly has its' mistakes but it's an amazing movie nevertheless. The instrumental music is awesome. The use of live fire in this film was stunning (and hazardous), made it more authentic and the firefights more intense. One thing they should have added to this movie is: "Man hath no greater love then to lay down his life for his fellow man."
(THE STAR RATING DOESN'T WORK--I GIVE THIS MAXIMUM STARS)+++ This is not like fiction feature films. It is so good it’s a rohrschach test for some. The Seals invited 2 guys to film them demonstrating their stuff—some things were softened (torture sequence) and others left out (newest or secret, obviously). But, in essence, this is special forces in action.+++Any complaint about the acting is an example of people’s issues re military or violence. The acting is actually very good. Virtually all roles except a few minor cameos of bad guys are real active duty Seals—and nobody does these guys except these guys. Not a regular film—but, man, that’s GOOD! Real tactics and procedure, real equipment, really fired. Lots of live fire and no Hollywood bs or plastic. The code is living by principles and this probably brings out issues amongst the fake humanitarians out there (if I were on the game-board I’d be an extreme Leftist—I’m just after the truth). +++So much cool stuff—a small drone is thrown up just before an encounter and bad guys escaping or flanking are spotted and eliminated. There’s a sequence where Seals swim underwater to a Sub and quickly are picked up and the Sub is seen diving—all real and just beautiful to behold. Many scenes where a group of Seals recon and form 360 degree cover with rifles drawn. Absolutely gorgeous! It’s all as real as can be filmed (except the advanced, still secret stuff) and performed by amazing cats who at least mostly act from principle. It’s the ruling class and their political puppets who are the bad guys. These are special forces, not the regular soldiers who can be misguided and criminal.+++ If Valor is ‘bad acting’ to some, they should see a therapist. The individual decides how he/she lives their life; and that’s always the case.
I couldn't watch this movie past the first 15 minutes. The acting was just terrible.
wow very good
Facinating update on the pornography of firepower. Worth watching, if you like action movies. And an interesting blend of professional soldiers with professional actors. The soldiers hold there own. The actors do too. But perhaps its not the best mix of talents.
We saw this in the theater. It was a solid movie that seemed to be based in reality (unlike most action-type movies).
A great film! Lots of action and suspense. One of the better ones.
A good film. Interesting because of it's use of real Navy Seals.
Very well done movie. A pleasure to watch. I would recommend this movie for all to see. No fast forwarding on this one. Well worth the price of admission to any theater. A++ DVD
One of the best films I have seen in this year. It was entertaining and interesting. Great performances a must see for all. “Truly a really great movie worth the long library wait or the price to rent from a Red Box”.
