Goofs

Around 11 minutes in when Michael Madsen's character is talking to the Captain outside the ship, they are standing between a porthole and a door. Whenever the Captain is shown, the reflection in the porthole next to him shows a building and a water tower in the background, clearly showing that the ship is still docked and not in the middle of the ocean.

User Reviews

Three stars and here's why

Acting dreadful. CGI dreadful. Storyline dreadful. Military accuracy dreadful. Strangely tho I laughed at most of the things that made this film bad and ended up enjoying it! Would I watch a sequel? Sure. Would I watch it again? Eh,,, no.
