Starring: Nicholas Cage, Adam Beach, Roger Willie, and Christian Slater.
This has to be the worst war movie I have ever seen in my entire life (and probably will be for the rest of my life.) I seriously can't see how critics think John Woo is a good director, because he isn't. The movie is about a hoakie war guy who has to protect a Navajo Indian also known as a Windtalker. The movie SHOULD be about the Navajo Indians and their duty. But it IS about Nicholas Cage's jerk character. This movie is so full of flaws it will make your head explode. Here are a few: (SPOILERS) 1. Nicholas Cage had a grenade blown up right next to him, yet he has a slightly bad hearing problem and a wobbly leg. He should be blown to bits and pieces. 2. Cage seems to be very lucky considering he hardly gets hit and hits about a million Japanese. 3. Cage was shot in the leg twice and is still able to carry Adam Beach many yards. 4. There are no such things as Japanese samurais in the Japanese Army. Think about it, big men with AK-47s, a skinny guy with a sword. Who's going to win. (END SPOILERS) Those are only a couple of flaws. Also, Woo goes nuts with explosions. Which are pretty fake. A major disappointment in the war genre.
