Agreed. Terrible movie. And the choppers?

Did they even attempt to make them look atealthy?

I agree with the primary reviewer on the main page.

Another annoying thing was the head guy explaining extremely standard operational procedures like not shooting non-combatants. As DEVGRU aka team six is a Tier 1 operator like Delta, SAd/SOG and USAF 24th special tac. They are picked from the best of the best of the best, tend to be older and more mature mentally etc,

Telling a team that specializes in hostage rescue, counter terrorism, black ops and direct action, telling those operators to be careful not to hit non combatant or non coms. Is just ridiculous. They train nonstop on all of that.

The movie was terrible. I could explain why but has been done and its obvious. Too bad. I was excited to see this flick. Total letdown. It's a 1-2/10 scale to me.

can't understand why the LCDR's jump wings were directly below his budweiser. you'd think some tech adviser would've caught that. god, there was a lot wrong with this thing

What exactly is the problem with that? I think I know but I want to confirm: do Navy regs forbid wearing jump wings under the Budweiser ?

peteinsb-1, ever heard of a "free fire zone?" or ROE's that declare all people on a certain target hostile? Giving them the ROE is extremely important so there's no misunderstanding. Furthermore, it gives the head shed a bit of insulation when some guy kills somebody he shouldn't have they can say "oh no, we told them very clearly not to shoot non-combatants."

Agree though, this movie is terrrrrrrrrrrible.
