Where the editors on strike?

Rating: Null/10 (15 August 2002)

This is possibly the worst edited film I ever have seen.
The essence of the story, about protecting secrets at any cost, and the use of Navaho Indians as signalists is new and promising, but it eventually turns into a kind of Hong-Kong karate film, but mainly fought with guns, rifles and grenades.
Even if lack of ammo is a subject in the film, in the final battle Nicolas Cage and his Indian friend seems to
have tons of it!
Acting by most was spectacular, not least Peter Stormare as The Wiking, Niclas Cage's boss!
I wish I would be given the power to edit out an hour, or so, and then we'd had a perfect film!
Just like the Thin Red Line, which really had a weak plot line, it was a chore to sit through!
So I'd give it a 5/10, even if the acting was very good!
