i enjoyed this immensely.
critics are comparing the fighting scenes in this to be as intense and gruesome
as the opening battle scene of saving private ryan, which left me rocked. they
are not far off. the tension is built so well that by the time they were ready pop
the first shot, i was literally gripping the edge of my seat and when the shit did
pop off, it didnt let off for like a half hour straight. im talking 30 solid minutes
of these guys fighting for their lives against impossible odds. where it differs from
saving private ryan though is that i almost had to turn that shit off when i first
saw it, whereas here i couldnt look away. its got its aspects that are hollywood
standard, which should be expected from a mark wahlberg movie, but if you can
forego that, this is well worth the money to see it in the theatre.
