Critic Reviews

  • Variety Staff, Variety

    Nifty performances make this routine action flick better than it probably has a right to be.

  • , Time Out

    Teague, meanwhile, is far too busy orchestrating the large-scale action sequences to make anything of the cardboard characters, episodic plotting, or clunking dialogue.

  • Caryn James, New York Times

    They take their explosives and their silly roles much too seriously.

  • Joe Brown, Washington Post

    Like a real Navy SEAL, it does what it's supposed to do and gets out of there quickly, and doesn't remain in your memory for long.

  • Rita Kempley, Washington Post

    Pass the ammunition.

    This is probably one of your perfect over the top, kick ass, gun ho, testosterone filled macho man fests, the cast is what really rocks here with a classic list of 80's action stars...Sheen, Biehn, Paxton and Rossovich, can't get much better than that :) The plot is pretty… More

    The desperate search to find another branch of the services to undergo a <i>Top Gun</i> Treatment settles on naval commandos. American response to Middle Eastern terrorism is to send this bunch of larger louts in, knowing that whichever side ends up.

    decent flick

  • Michael G


    Every time I've seen this I've been drunk or stricken with some form of grief. So with a straight mind this review may be lower.
