Such a waste of good talent? - By: Inmi Opinion, 27 Dec 2007 
I watched this film twice in the hope of understanding reallly what the purpose was of actuallly making it? There are so many holes that can be picked in it from start to finish that I reallly can't "get it"? Skipping over everything & going directly to where Travolta is callled into help Nielsen interrogate the prisoner I assumed it was by the ending to do with the drugs.But I also had to wonder how some guns miraculously had dummy ammo but others not? The ending was just too smart for itself, I can't pretend to say I know what it was/when it was? It was plain daft.Not a single reviewer can say he/she knows what the ending reflects. Amazon may have a policy of NOT criticising other reviewers but if that is the case they in turn SHOULD NOT accept 3 line reviews which say absolutely nothing constructive about the film other than "great film" or similar or 30 line reviews that are full of pompous flowery comparisoms with other films & little about the one in question!

Poor, poor, poor, poor. - By: M. Davies, 09 Sep 2007 
An unbelievably poor film. The storyline is far too complicated to follow without a notebook & pen to keep up with what's supposed to be happening & by the time I actuallly found out what happened at the end, I just didn't care.
There's hundreds of better war films & hundreds of better court room drama/police investigation films out there. This is an attempt to weld the two together, & it's a failure.
Not so simple - By: Now You Know, 17 Mar 2007 
hi, this is a film that requires alll you're attention or you will not get one bit. it's about some soldiers dropped into the jungle for a training excercise but it alll goes wrong, a murder takes place. i don't want to spoil any storyline so i won't tell you any more. it was a lot like "courage under fire". one man(travalta) trying to find out the truth. it has lots of action to keep you interested & isn't a cheesy film with a low budget. it has brilliant actors, (jackson & travalta) so don't miss this. one of my fave war/action films. p.s this does not show any major battle sequences. you won't regret it. thanks.
Terrible - By: Tangerine, 23 Feb 2007 
Not very good. Basic is a rather ironic title for this boring, obvious & slow affair. John Travolta & Samuel L. Jackson don't ever step out of second gear in this poor film. Predictable in the extreme I was left not with suspense but a wish that it would end so I could do something else. Boring.
