This is a surprisingly good movie, considering it is basically low budget. It is fairly realistic, too. The weapons sound like the real weapons. The actors act like real Marines and soldiers.

There are some lapses in dialog, though. Some of the things the Marine lieutenant says would not be uttered by a Marine.

Far and away the biggest lapse is Rutger Hauer. He is starting to show his age - unfortunately. Plus, with his long hair a scraggly 3-day-old beard, he looks more like a street person than a Marine Corps General.

That notwithstanding, the military advisers did a much better job than in other movies of this genre. It held my attention, even if it wasn't Saving Private Ryan.
