5/10
I've seen worse

But I've also certainly seen better. This film has good points and bad ones. The worst aspect of the film is the musical score. First, it sounds like it belongs to a Saturday morning kiddie show, not a war film. The score also suffers from very poor sound editing, although the rest of the audio is OK. There are two scenes in the film where the music begins to build, then is abruptly cut off in mid note. The story is OK and, from most of the cast, the acting is at least somewhat decent, though certainly nothing to write home about. I've watched a lot of war films and this one rates about a 5 out of ten, which is what I voted for it in this venue. It has a sort of well-written screenplay and the action sequences are fairly good, which is why I rated it that high.
