Recap: After a failed diplomatic mission were Captain Murphy himself was held hostage, a rescue team is sent. Able to free the captives but, Murphy's friend, and the leader of the rescue team, Rifkin is wounded and left behind. Later the team get a video showing Rifkin held hostage by the drug lord Salvatore. Now it seems they will get a third and final shot at rescuing their man, and taking out Salvatore. To give them an edge, they have a modified Stealth Fighter, able to carry personnel, that will fly them into the (fictive) South American Country.
Comments: Clearly an attempt to put together an hour and a half of action and little more. Barely to keep the story floating. There are two major problems though. First off, as often in these kind of movies, the soldiers are under-equipped and clearly not trained. In most firefights people, mostly bad guys, drop like flies. But had there been real ammo, I doubt they would have hit the same village. The second problem is that Stealth Fighters must be hard to come by. Although the fighting is set in a dry and warm country in South America, most pictures show the Stealth flying over a snow-covered landscape.
Both problems make it hard to take the movie seriously. But then again, we are not really supposed to do that anyway, are we? If one are willing, and able, to ignore those problems, this is a decent low-budget action. If you're not, you will probably want to skip this one...
3/10
