More American bull

Rating: 6/10 (15 December 2014)

This could have been such a great movie. The problem I have with it is the way it portrays the main character. He's just a totally loopy maverick who you just wouldn't want to be around in those situations. But what really choked me was the sniper scene. They bump into some British troops (what you are lead to believe are SAS) & this movie makes them out to be a bunch of girl guides at a bun fight. I mean these guys are our elite & deserve some respect but there you go, the USA saves the day again with a couple of regular grunts suddenly becoming elite snipers. It's just unrealistic bull crap. On the plus side there are some tense scenes in their which give the movie some credibility but I'm puzzled as to how this film won so many awards.
