Kurt Russell's Todd is almost half -dimensional, if that's possible. The movie starts off trying to be tense and dramatic, and in this it sort of succeeds. We're made to see the soldiers as mean and tough. Later in the film, we're introduced to snippets of intended humor. And at the very end, the old brand soldiers seem almost like regular joes.
Soldier is an action flick, nothing more.
If action is all you need to get you through two hours, then feel free to check it out. On the other hand, I'm reminded of why I enjoy science fiction in written word so much.
