MC Terrible acting. Couldn't wait for them all to "play dead" like good soldiers. And caught behind some extremely bad lines also known as the movie script. Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/19/23 Full Review Audience Member You'll see red target-like uniforms with helmets sliding off their heads, hanging by their straps. Marching through the Forrest not knowing what to do but keep going almost as if the movie makers were Military Vets or something... Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member From further research it appears that 5 Combat Military Veterans made this film. Which is awesome. This film was made for $3,000 bucks, so it claims, and it would be hard to do any better with the same budget. All the guns in this film are actual real rifles, which I found interesting. And finally the end states it is a remake of "Fear and Desire." Both the original and this new film, is about a fictional war between fictional countries. The original film is not strong in acting or character development. The final scene is much less climactic in the original, then it is in this new version. Fear and Desire has many examples of what great things were to come for Kubrick. But this new version also features a much more human moment in the middle of the film. Give any film a chance and this $3k movie should not be compared to something like Full Metal Jacket which Stanley Kubrick made 30 years later in his career. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Awesome on a low budget film as such. Check it out! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/20/23 Full Review Audience Member Some of the best cinematography I've seen in a small scale production. Good, classic military story. Even though many army films have a predictable plotline, this one kept my interest through and through. We should find a way to get this man some money and see what he can really do someday. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Audience Member Over all, it was not too bad, considering the budget.
