First the good -- excellent monster special effects.
Now the bad -- everything else.
The movie is filled with pointless denigration of the soldiers. They are either hyped up on killing like madmen or so busy ignoring orders and philosophizing so as to be useless. The Arabs either act like Taliban or are monster loving mystics and are entirely one dimensional. Five or six soldiers are sent into what is supposed the most dangerous sector in the war. They can't even get proper air support.
All of this is jumbled into a long drawn out hodgepodge which -- is both pointless and boring. l only give it a three because the overall plot and special effects cry out for better treatment.
