Um, at least James Horner's score was great!

Rating: Null/10 (5 July 2002)

Hey, I'm not much of a pro movie critic, but this is what I saw:
--As toryline I'd seen before. Complete with Cage seeing hias first battle over and over again every time he hears a scream --Unrealistic war (I know I've never fought in a war), Cage's handgun took out about 5 or 6 guys in the end who were only holding their rifles.
--I like war dramas. This was like the action hero of war. What did these guys feel? I dunno. I felt it in We Were Soldiers and in Saving Private Ryan, even Enemy at the Gates, but I did not feel it here. I cried on Indian in the Cupboard (ya, I'm dumb) but I didn't stifle any tears here. There was no drama, partly by average acting, mostly by directing and writing this movie as Mission Impossible II (sorry, I hated that one, too) goes to war. --What happened to the girl? --Christian Slater should've been cast as main role --Or Jason Isaacs (after Patriot, I think he deserved more than 3 minutes) --James Horner composes an inspired war effort score, complete with reoccurring themes, dynamics in the right places, a mixing of our European classical music with Native American music, contrapuntal passages at the conflict sections, and moving harmonies in oblique motion for the themes. (Sorry, I had time to listen because action sequences are unrealistsic and bore me) :-)
Anyway, I'd skip this one
