Uhhhh, why did I get this?, 2008-08-08
This is a one time rental movie and thats about it. I will say that the sound effects are very cool and even better when in surround.

Great title for action fans...Awesome sound effects even in Dolby Pro Logic Surround, 2008-06-28
I first saw this movie on DVD the first time several years ago and then when I saw that it had come to Blu-Ray, I knew that I had to buy it. I was kind of disappointed with the picture quality, but then again I was only using 1080i due to a problem with my monitor. If I can manage to find an HDMI-DVI cable that works in 1080p I might post another comment in here so stay tuned. A few scenes were awesome in high definition especially the ones where the F-18 is being pursued by a couple of SAMS (surface to air missiles.) The audio quality on the other hand was outstanding! During the scene with the gunshots where the main pilot gets executed by the Serbian army, the shot was so LOUD I felt like I was standing right there in the field. My friend Mark was watching this movie with me (my first day playing Blu-Ray discs) and he said WHOAA with a capital W.! He said that he couldn't follow the story very well, and I was like, "Dude how could you not?" Basic search and rescue plot with a good story to boot. I believe this movie was based on a true story that happened in the late 90's if I'm not mistaken...

High octane action/war flick. Makes you proud of the Red, White Blue and what it represents. br /And it's also fun seeing the bad guys get their comeupponce. Surprised to discover this was the br /director John Moore's maiden effort, because he handles the action sequences like a pro. br / br /And Gene Hackman? What can you say about Mr. Hackman that hasn't been said before? Excellent. br /As always. This artist is a treasure.

Is it realistic? Very little of course resembles how a downed pilot would be rescued in this scenario. Based on a true story that has the typical Hollywood wash and rinse cycle making it "Last Action Hero" bullet proof. Still forsaking the hero being shot to pieces, I still like it. Most of it seems real, and our hero isn't perfect by any means. The support cast is great and you love and hate them accordingly. The scenes are so well photographed that they actually add some reality to what otherwise would be to over the top. That and Hackman's and Wilson's performances are great. Good action and music make it at least worth a rental. Hey are you going to tell me all those old John Wayne WWII movies were realistic? Hardly, but we love them nonetheless. If you enjoyed this be sure to catch "Blackhawk Down" and "Bat 21". I personally snapped up this good quality DVD with great replayability.
