99% action & shots, 1 % code-talkers

Rating: 1/10 (22 July 2014)

I had been looking forward to watching this movie, but boy was I disappointed. I thought the subject was very interesting so I forgot to check the reviews of the movie. It could have been a great movie under other circumstances. Unfortunately I didn't know about action film director and producer John Woo, had I known about him I would have been more wary. What a waste of more than 2 hours! We only hear small fragments of the story about the Navajo code-talkers, most of the movie is wasted on long scenes with shooting and violence that has nothing to do with what should have been the main part of the movie: the story of the code-talkers. I feel snubbed, it could have become a great movie. But then they had to waste the opportunity and end up with more than 2 hours of unbelievable crap: long scenes with guns blazing and hardly no mention of what should have been the main theme: the Navajo code-talkers.
I am so disappointed, I hope that some day there will be a film that really tell the story of the code-talkers.
