Not to be missed war-movie

Rating: 9/10 (6 January 2003)

Mr. Woo is at it again! This time a GREAT war movie! He's already famous to directing action scenes, this is NO exception. Now he's picking up on having a good 'red thread' through the film as well. In that regard he's still a little behind giants like S. Spielberg and R. Scott. But mark my words! He's getting there. Fast! Cage is, as always, brilliant. But in that respect I'm biased: I'm a total fan of Mr N. Cage!
