I've never see so much hate towards a good action movie. The cinema photography is excellent, the music is great, the action is really well done. It's an enjoyable movie. Owen Wilson actually does a great job here too.....anyway, I like it.

Typical gun-ho movie where the enemy are so dumb that nobody knows why they are even capable of war. Shooting a POW for no reason, setting up a booby trapped minefield only to have the pursuer disappear and not wait for its prey, the pursuing sniper running to the middle of the ice field for absolutely no apparent reason except to expose himself instead of quietly waiting for the prey to do the exposing, and of course, the usual hail of bullets from the enemy that doesn't hit anything. Lets add the righteous general who goes against the rules to save his man, the NATO commander who does nothing except get in the way. The filming technique seems odd. Is it suppose to be a photo journalist style with the with the cameraman and its shaky camera work, running and chasing the main character? But this isn't photo journalism. If the shaky camera work is to be done, it should be from the perspective of the character. Plus the quick cuts is more at home in a music video instead of a movie.

That is basically the message of this movie.(SLIGHT SPOILERS): Two American pilots stray from their course over a no fly zone. Not that there's anything wrong with that. Also even the Admiral breaks the rules and sets out on a rescue mission without orders. But, that's OK, because he's an American. And throughout the movie, our hero amazingly dodges machine gun fire and tanks and even hops through a mine field. And the serbs(ie bad guys) always miss no matter how good of a shot they have. And I can't believe Gene Hackman agreed to be in this. He must have owed someone a favor. FINAL VERDICT: There are some cool special effects in the beginning when the SAMs are chasing the jet, but after that, nothing spectacular happens. There are a lot better action/hero films out there, ie Die Hard. I suggest one of them over this.

Check realism at the door for this one. I know that there are a ton of technical mistakes in this, but I saw enough mistakes of "common sense", so I have a few questions: Why did he leave his pilot out in the open when they knew they were hot? Why did they call off the first rescue 500 feet from the rescue point without checking the visible ground where Owen was? Why did the young hip-hop fan follow him? Why didn't Owen remove the hard drive before the lead started to fly? Oh my god, this movie has a stupidity level that's sky-high. Those are but a few of the questions I had. Some others were, why did Gene do this film? Who gave the "OK" for this turkey? This is one of the worst piles of garbage I've seen since Battlefield Earth. Ug. 'Nuff said.

I really don't know how is it possible to make such a stupid movie. Better to spent a money for a children without a parents, children which are hungry etc... Lets me tell you about this movie : Planes can be easily shoot down ,and they cant avoid 20 anti air missiles. People which are being involved to recorded this movie should be more informed where, and why, and how they will act. Enemy army was Bosnian Serbian army, but they don't speak Croatian language like u can meet in this movie.Very bad movie with bad actors. Even Rambo 3 is better. I will give to director of this movie award for the worst movie ever !

It has a very simple plot, but it is entertaining and good to have a good time.
