Special Ops

The first line of the film says it all - A soldier recovers consciousness on a shoreline after an ambush which claimed the lives of his entire team 'Captain Kyle Pearson US Marines' he says into his radio whilst standing in plain sight on a beach waiting to get shot. What about taking cover? What about Sound discipline? what about covert call-signs? The moronic dialogue, demented, perfunctory, linear plot and execrable acting conspire to ensure that never for a second will you accept the illusion that that you are watching a squad of elite soldiers, carrying out a special ops mission.

From the very first scene you are in no doubt that Disarmed is a Turkey. With dodgy eyelines, awful lighting, blatantly amateurish audio and endlessly uninventive shot selection throughout, this film looks like a cheap seventies TV series which has been dubbed into a foreign language and then dubbed back again by a different set of actors.
