Recap: A team of Delta Force is lured into an ambush trying to protect an American ambassador. The team takes heavy casualties, and flees leaving wounded men behind. Ambassador forgotten, this now become a vendetta between Delta Force Captain Kennedy and the terrorist mastermind Jaffar. Jaffar wants to brainwash the captured soldiers into walking bombs and Kennedy must rescue them at all costs.
Comments: This is impressively and depressingly bad. Its completely stupid, full of boring, never ending and repeating shooting. There is no story, no real dialog and nothing really ever happens, well except people shooting at each other. And if you missed one scene, don't worry, it will repeat itself at least once.
Some action movies ignore rules of reality and might get away with it. This doesn't. I can actually accept movies ignoring the ammunition limit, weapons being able to fire in infinity. But to have a scene where one soldier clearly calls out "Out of ammunition" releases his cartridge and THEN resumes firing can only be the sign of a really incompetent director. And it is incredible that not anyone, writers, actors, none of the people involved, seem to have noticed.
That the movie then continues to completely disregard anything of military tactics or weapon abilities, and that the supposedly elite soldiers of Delta Force seem to be the weakest bunch around (with the exception perhaps being the terrorists shooting at them), was almost to be expected, but it just underlines the poor quality of this entire project.
My recommendation to any and all. Avoid at all costs.
2/10
