Boring and too loud

Rating: 1/10 (4 December 1998)

This movie *is* very realistic .. but that's more or less everything it has. It tries to give the impression of having been filmed on the spot, and acquires the drawbacks of documentaries.

The soundtrack is too loud (even the sound of the waves at the very beginning of the first scene)

The story is weak (as dull as an average real life war story)

The camera moves during actions give one a headache

The storyline is paternalistic and moaning

Military enthusiasts can love it. Action fans had rather go watch "Starhip Troopers" and forget about "Saving Private Ryan"
