Michael Bay and a serious topic...hum...something's not right!

Rating: 3/10 (19 December 2006)

I'll try to keep it short. I don't want to keep you up for long with my hymns about how distasteful and dumb this movie is. I'll try to keep it all in a nutshell.
Let's start with the actors. One-face Affleck meets pretty-boy Hartnett. I kinda miss the part where these two show a believable performance as soldiers. They are kids on a playground! They don't deliver any drama or horror. They are what they are: Third class actors.
The plot. Oh my god, the plot...not ending garbage about romance, friendship, loyalty and so on. And then, oh dear Lord, war comes to Hawaii. And you feel pretty comfortable watching the action on the screen. I don't want to feel happy when I watch a movie about a war! I wanna feel thrilled, disgusted, touched! This isn't BAD BOYS! Michael Bay is a great director for shallow, entertaining and funny action films. BAD BOYS II is marvelous. But this here? No way. This is an insult. Shame on everyone, who worked on this movie! They showed a big lack of sensibility or even sanity.
