Nothing Special

Rating: Null/10 (9 February 2002)

I have recently seen this film and I felt it was nothing special. It has no driving story in it and what story there is, is very predictable. The acting is adequate, but none of the cast are given a chance to shine because of its script and its "cheesy" lines. None of the characters have any fear and all of them are "glad to die for their country" without question.
There are some impressive visual tricks none the less and the battle scenes are played out very well, but after a while it loses it edge and you find yourself waiting for something special to happen.
