Does the movie suck or not?

I haven't seen this movie, but I think that, the movie isn't that good, that many people are saying.

I just found a review, quite interesting actually.

I just watched it 2 days ago and it wasn't bad. Parts were rather unrealistic, but the story wasn't bad.

I saw it on opening day, very good flick. Only thing that was annoying was the female doctor. She was quite the whiner.

I saw this film in the first week of release. As a pure action film, not bad. If you're looking for real life, you won't find it in this film. You have to suspend your belief several times. You might be better off going for the rental.

I've seen that film a few days after it's showing..(March 19, I think...)

Unrealistic, but action packed...

It's definitely worth a look see. It's out on video/dvd so go rent it. It serves its purpose of angering you and filling you full of pride as an American and what the SEALs did. Still think Blackhawk Down and We were Soldiers are two of the greatest in depicting what we are all about though.

Sabot, that is too funny about the doctor. My wife is fairly easy to get along with and the first thing she said about the doctor while we were watching this last night was "Somebody needs to smack her..."

At any rate, pretty good movie. Watch for the rebels running around with the RPG launchers with no grenade in them. Apparently they were going to beat the SEALS with the empty tubes...

Already got the DVD? It haven't even gone up on cinemas here in Sweden... That's unfair.

I bought a used version of the dvd about a week ago. I have seen about twice now and still I wish that Bruce Willis would have just knocked the dog poo outta the Doc to shut her up lol.
