    I'm not calling you a liar, but all my time in the military, 2001-2007, I have never heard of someone volunteering and getting turned down for that particular reason.[/QUOTE



    Sent you a PM to explain. Had it posted here first but decided to do it in PM.

    Yeah, I sent you a PM back. Re-read my post, I didn't call you a liar, I said I had just never heard of that before.

    Act of Valor has an 11% on rotten tomatoes. Thanks for wasting our time with your fail review marty.

    11% on rotten tomatoes, and will continue to get horrible reviews. There was a reason why RT didn't reveal reviews until the day before it comes out.

    Rule of thumb, whatever movie marty posts about, don't watch.

    Edit: While I was typing this, the rating fell down to 10% lolfail.

    has a 42 on meta and falling fast. Thanks for wasting our time with your fail review marty.

    There is a reason why a hilljack such as yourself marty can see these movies at "VIP" pre screenings.

    guessing terrible acting with no plot and lots of explosions. Pretty much what Michael Bay does.

    just from looking at the previews, looked like a cheesy/corny B movie.

    Lol anyone who actually thought this movie was gonna be good..just stop it

    From the beginning I knew this was gonna be terrible..why? Becuase you need a plot, you need acting, you need good directing...none of that is in this movie, it's just explosions and "keeping our brothers close" blahhhhhhh we get it, you're in the military, you're a badass, okay. Doesn't mean they should make a movie about you.

    They should. But they should do it with real actors and a real director (Speilberg et al.). They also should focus on a mission that the public either knows, or a mission that the public would find interesting.

    Ill still probably see this, cause I dont work till 5pm tomorrow. But Im not expecting anything great.

    You don't have anything else better to do than waste time and money with visual garbage on the screen? Hell Journey 2 has better ratings.

    They should make a movie about the SEALs and the plot could be any of hundreds of past missions.

    Nice fail Sports Lady

    I should have specified. I still have some gift cards that expire at the end of the month.

    I would rather watch a movie, even bad, about the SEALs than anything else that is currently playing.

    If the movie had the SEALs fighting Voldemort, I'd totally be there. But it doesn't, so fuck it.

    I take back what I said...I didn't mean to say they shouldn't make a movie about the seals..they're fucking awesome. I'm saying you can't just pull out seals and put them in a movie, with no plot, with no decent director..and expect people like me to enjoy it.

    Seals vs Voldemort? I'll see that shit.
  • hoops23
    I'll be seeing it this weekend. Don't really care about plot or acting.. Sometimes I just want to see some fucking action. I also think the fact that it's REAL SEALs acting in missions based on real ones intrigues me a bit too.

    I'd check out Navy SEALs vs. Crocosaurus too.
  • bigdaddy2003
    I'm going to check it out tomorrow. I'll also only being paying 4 bones to see it so that helps. I'm hoping people didn't really expect it to have great acting or a great plot.

    That's a given.

    so this movie has a weak plot with lots of explosions...there are lots of things i can watch that are like this without spending money on it. It looks cool, but there are tons of better military movies out there.
