    Storyline

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Aaron Eckhart broke his arm while filming a stunt. He never missed a day of work because of it.
    • Goofs
      It was noted that a flight of A-10 "warthogs" were on the flight line at Camp Pendleton. The A-10 is a close support ground attack aircraft flown by the USAF in support of ground operations conducted by the Army and the Marines. They often conduct joint training so seeing Air Force craft at a Marine base is not uncommon.
    • Quotes

      SSgt. Michael Nantz: All right, Lockett. You wanna go there. Let's go there. I commanded men and men died. Kids. 19 years old. The best men I ever led. Do you think for a second I wouldn't rather trade places with them? I know you think I got my men killed. They're dead. I'm here. Like the punchline to some bad joke. You think I like that? Do you think a minute goes by that those faces aren't right here

      [points to head]

      SSgt. Michael Nantz: seared into my brain?

      SSgt. Michael Nantz: Dante, Thomas T. Corporal. 1-5-6-5-0-9-3-8-6.

      SSgt. Michael Nantz: Lockett, Duane G. Corporal. 1-5-6-8-7-0-9

      SSgt. Michael Nantz, Cpl. Jason Lockett: 5-5.

    More than a SciFi
    This is movie I've never seen before. Watched it today on Netflix. It is great movie with emotional moments and fantastic action. Negative reviews are just rude and making you skip a good action movie.
