Michael's Movie Grade: C+
A decent military action film.
This may not be a great movie but has enough to keep action movie fans entertained for the whole runtime. The action scenes are well handled and quite exciting. Not only this but the action scenes keeping getting bigger and more exciting until the end. The use of a ticking clock for most of the runtime helps make this film all the more suspenseful. The movie does a wonderful job building up suspense as our main character only has a limited amount of time to make it out of this dangerous situation. This also makes the movie grow all the more suspenseful as he has less and less time as the film goes on. This movie also benefits from likable characters. They may not be complex in any way, but they are definitely likable.
This film definitely has its flaws though. One is that there is nothing here, we haven't seen a million times before and this movie is not able to make any of it feel fresh or original. The humor constantly falls flat and there is not one "funny" moment that made me laugh. The villains are completely bland and uninteresting as well.
This may not be a great film, but it is entertaining enough.
