Not even bad in a good way

It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

To all of those who were wasting time writing and commenting down on the plot and stuff, discerning between ailerons and rudder, and other craps, i have to tell that this is clearly the worst movie i have ever seen in my entire life. Nothing, but nothing, makes sense. Nobody knows why the VP was there, with only a crew of 3, getting to an Island with a couple of Maoris and rebel GIs...oh sweet Jesus...Some of you gave up to seven stars to it? how many starts for Raging Bull, then?, 60 or 70, at least, huh? how about Godfather, or Schindler's list? You made me sicker than the movie itself. As for David Keith, i'm gonna forgive him provided i watch "an officer and a gentleman" this very night.

what a horrible horrible movie, the plot is outrageous... for one... if the second most powerful man's plane crashes somewhere in the so called "pacific" (which was quite amusing because geeez never realized the area was so dangerous) those types of planes, that carry people like the president and vice president of the mighty United States of America, usually have numerous tracking procedures, for not the man thats important, they can be replaced, but the secret paperwork and what not...another B grade movie, where the main character never gets shot, even though there are 10 men shooting with machine guns, although she can take them all down with 6 bullets... hmmm.. sorry but this movie was just too ridiculous. and extremely bad special effects when the plane was crashing. do have to admit if anything, this movie was quite funny, even though i don't think it was its intent.but who am i to judge...

I'm a sucker for action movies and this one really lived up to my standards. There's a whole lot of gun blazing, running for your life, making hard choices and good old fighting action.What intrigued and amused me about this movie was one of the posters I found on the internet. I loved the tag line "Behind Enemy Lines No Man Can Stop Her. Only One Woman Can Touch Her." That obviously hinted that there was to be a lesbian storyline in the movie.But the movie does not revolve much around the main character's love interest, resulting in a lack of intimate scenes between Mariel Hemingway and Jill Bennett's characters, save for two brief kissing episodes. But agreeing with another user's comments, it would not have seemed plausible for the movie to have a love scene seeing as the characters were always too busy looking over their shoulders and trying not to get killed and/or kidnapped.Besides the movie has lots to entertain audiences with, including realistic gun fighting and chase sequences through a muddy, green jungle. The only disappointing scene in the movie was the plane scene. It was quite obvious that it was a computer generated scene and as a user pointed out, many mistakes and improper procedures aboard the plane were made.But overall the actors did an amazing job at keeping my eyes glued to the screen. The chemistry between Mariel Hemingway and Jill Bennett's characters were a bonus so kudos to them for making it so.

The fact someone even wanted to do a female type Rambo movie with a lesbian character makes me give them kudos for trying.With a little tweaking, this could have been a pretty good film.It is sadly lacking in the lesbian department - all we get are a couple of kisses, that's it.The rest of it is non-stop jungle action.The heroine, played by Mariel Hemingway, who unfortunately is a bit past her prime, hangs tough and kicks major butt, as well as knowing how to handle a gun.Jill Bennett is her love interest, and she's attractive and brave, although of course she's not allowed to be quite as brave as Mariel's character.If only the writers had realized you need some breaks in all that action, at least a few minutes where maybe one woman bandages up the other gal's flesh wound, and then they strip off and go for a nude swim in a jungle pool, and do some making out--it could have gone all the way up to an 8 or 9 star film for me.The plot, such as it is, concerns the plane the Vice President is on going down in a storm near an island where some mercenaries and rebels have their training camp.Reality goes out the window from the get-go, because the Vice President has one bodyguard, Mariel Hemingway. She may be as tough as a battalion of Marines, but people like Vice Presidents always have dozens of secret service people with them everywhere they go.They're still struggling ashore when they come under attack by the militant operation on the island, after that it's just action, action, and still more action.I gave it 6 stars out of 10. I suppose it didn't deserve it, but positive lesbian films come along so rarely, I like to encourage them.
