Matialth Good concept, poorly executed.

Tedfoldol everything you have heard about this movie is true.

Helloturia I have absolutely never seen anything like this movie before. You have to see this movie.

Calum Hutton It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...

joel0903 Did they not even stop to check to make sure they were using the correct rifles? the M-16 A-2 mod was adopted in the mid 1980s based on a requirement by the Marine Corps and did away with the fully automatic setting. It was replaced with 3 round burst. The hand guards were also modified (both are round) in later models. Also, at the end, the Yong San sign is spelled wrong (it says US Eight Army when it should say US Eighth Army).It's a somewhat entertaining B movie, all in all. About what I expected, though the quality of the writing doesn't do the actors and actresses abilities justice. Ah, also, the instructor at the end was one of her training squad. I don't recall her rank, but obviously you don't get selected to be an instructor at Ranger school less than a month after you graduate from said school.

GG Raz 2012 Comments--Good for 1997 Tech No reviews in a while, so here is mine:OK the plot is relevant to current events- imagine that!! Art imitates life. I could speed up a few spots, but c.g.I. was just coming out, I think.The movie started & ended well and that matters. Lead acting was pretty good. So raw. & not high-tech, & a snooze or two, but better than many mindless tales still being produced. If you like to see females in action and you like nuclear topics, you could enjoy it --why not?CIA meets Army rangers -- Females had balls!! just saying. Probably not for under 40-ish crowd with action-addiction.

sgtdeal-1 I caught this movie on television on a Saturday afternoon and the thing that caught my eye was the "artistic license" taken on military details. While I know that movies require a certain suspension of disbelief, I was aghast by the aggregious inaccuracies in this movie. The movie depicts a squad of female Army Rangers on a covert mission inside of North Korea. While there is no such thing as female Rangers in the US Army, I would be able to overlook that little detail if it were not for the fact that they looked absolutely silly in a hodge-podge of military acoutrements that they were forced to wear. The costume person on this one should be ashamed of themselves. How much time, effort, or money does it take to research the basics of military uniform? From the Ranger tabs sewn onto their black berets, to their camoflauge t-shirts. I honestly thought this movie was a comedy at first. I was shocked to see Michael Biehn and R. Lee Ermey in this. You would think that both would have insisted on a certain degree of accuracy.

vfrickey The presence of action and adventure film veterans Michael Biehn (Navy Seals), Adrian Paul (the "Highlander" TV series) and R. Lee Ermey (Full Metal Jacket) couldn't resuscitate this flick... the dialogue and plot rarely rise above sophomoric quality. A major exception to that observation is an excellent gritty monologue delivered by R. Lee Ermey as a Cold War relic of a CIA bureaucrat pining for the good old days early in the film. More illustration of the conflict between Ermey's old-school spook and the (aw, crap!) lady general in charge would have helped the film considerably.The cinematography is right down there with Saturday morning "hop n'chop" martial arts films - disappointing, considering the crew was equipped to do better. I frankly was angry that this movie didn't have more polish and visual impact than it does.Also, the technical adviser was either absent or not being listened to by the director and writers. The military details - vignettes of Ranger training and the way in which Biehn and Paul's sniper/spook characters operate ring palpably false - lack the authenticity which even the average modern TV techno-thriller series has - even the later, more disappointing seasons of "24" inspire more willing suspension of belief than "Dead Men Don't Dance."Finally, the plot peters out toward the end. It's neither compelling nor plausible. You don't strongly care about the characters toward the end, you're just grateful for the end credits so you can get on with your life. The bad guys are predictably bad, the plot twists, while not quite telegraphed, are not terribly surprising either. If a plot twists out in the demilitarized zone somewhere and no one's paying attention, does it make any difference?The title of this film should be "Night of the Living Dead Plot." You'll never get the hour and a half of your life spent watching this turkey back; paint your house if there's nothing on the tube besides this... watching your walls dry will easily be more entertaining.
