Just the premise of the Navajo code talkers should have been fair enough warning to stay away from this one!

Rating: Null/10 (26 November 2002)

Talk about a stupid-but-true premise as an excuse for a blood-and-guts war movie! Yes, Woo is the king of action, but another WW II movie as a showcase for his talent was a bad decision (as noted by the glut of poor reviews and poor boxoffice for this movie). With virtually every director of note getting big budgets to show off the latest state-of-the-art methods for recreating battle, this Woo effort is too little, too late. Male bonding at it's worst; although not as dumb a movie as WE WERE SOLDIERS, another sappy, based-on-truth, veteran's wet dream.
