Not a war movie, but more of an adventure, this movie is about a SEAL team tasked to evacuate VIP in a war-torn Nigeria that turned into a major mess after a bloody coup and ethnic cleansing had started. As you can imagine, the mission NEVER goes as planned. When they get there, they find the good doctor with 70 people... and she won't leave them behind. So what do you think happens?
It's so obviously a tear jerker, about how people deal with horrors of war, and how each deal with the horror as they can... and you know there will be a big battle at the end, when the bad guys caught up.
The good guys here are not cliche, and the bad guys are... but that is expected, eh? The only problem I have is one of the sequences, when all of the SEAL team started standing up and firing on full auto. It is, to me, unrealistic. But then, it's one of the best war movies around.
