Dismal flick you really don't want to waste time on., 15 December 2007
1/10
Author: gus1-2 from United Kingdom

This is a shockingly bad 'action adventure' with an almost entirely unknown cast, ludicrously conceived plot, and some of the worst ham acting I've ever seen. It starts badly, the middle part is very poor indeed, and it really tails off towards the end. 'Into the sun' seems to flit between attempting 'Top Gun' homage and 'Private Benjamin' military satire, although to mention it in the same breath as these movies is to lavish praise upon it and I really wouldn't want to do that. Willing suspension of disbelief aside, the plot is just too implausible to be either funny enough to qualify as comedy, or realistic and exciting enough to be an action adventure. Mixed together with some truly mediocre acting and a handful of stock footage (no doubt purchased cheaply from the US air force) this makes for some pretty tiresome viewing.

If I had to choose between watching this film again and eating a raw potato, I'd go for the potato - It'd be more fun and take less time.
