Ava-Grace Willis Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

Tymon Sutton The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.

Bumpy Chip It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

Geraldine The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

tkearns17 OK, while this is a great guy flick, (guns, explosions, etc) it is a horrible military film. They keep referring to Tyler Christopher's character as "Captain" when his correct rank (according to both NAV Reg's and the railroad bar insignia on his collar) is Lieutenant. his number 2, would either be a Lieutenant J.G or and Ensign. There's just one more problem, Tyler Christopher's character also informs his CO that he intends to murder their guide. Not that I have a problem with killing terrorists, but still, come on. Another problem is, there is no USS Truman. The USS Harry Truman is an Aircraft Carrier, not a Battleship. Also, Battleships are named after states, not Presidents.

wes-connors The fate of the entire free world is threatened by unfriendly "Casper", a mysterious and resourceful terrorist seen only in blurry photographs. Only the U.S. Navy Seals can kill him. They immediately go underwater on a mission, but are on dry ground mostly. Tyler Christopher (as Rick) and John Simon Jones (as Miller) give the U.S. Seals a soap opera hunk look. Red-haired Gary Murphy (as Baker) has to prove himself. All things considered, Mr. Murphy performs well. Robert Mitchum's grandson Bentley Mitchum (as Andreas) has a plum role. They get involved with a lot of shooting and explosions.*** Frogmen Operation Stormbringer (12/3/02) Franklin A. Vallette ~ Tyler Christopher, Bentley Mitchum, John Simon Jones, Gary Murphy

gazebo It's a pretty straightforward action film. The U.S. Seals are sent to capture the terrorist "Casper". The acting is not very good, but it's not surprising since this is a B action movie. The actor that plays "Casper" was the most watcheable because his acting was better than the rest. It was an OK time waster.The criticism that I have for this film is that the night shots were just awful. Especially the shot of the Seals underwater. I couldn't see anything except little flashes of light and I didn't understand the dialogue. It was so frustrating I nearly turned off the film. But once the night scenes and underwater scenes were over, the film was decent. The fighting scenes were exciting and there were some spectacular explosions. It's a typical movie that guys love, I think.I enjoyed it for what it was. Nice movie to rent if one is stuck at home with a twisted ankle, like me.

fisk-2 First of all, this is a movie with semi-realism, people actually die from bullets and on both sides. There's probably more "friendlies" dying in this movie than in any other U.S. stereotype-film.The movie is pretty straightforward, there are some weak attempts at trying to write subplots (ie. the world's most dangerous terrorist manages to be a part of the Seal Team (don't ask)) there's also the occasional "My wife got killed by americans"-whine, and "America is a murderer"... really strong motives.As for cinematography this is pretty bad, there are lots of jump-cuts, and there are some beginner's mistakes that make it look like a B-production. One thing that's pretty hilarious is that they've done a voice-dub when the seal-team is diving, I don't know, but when you're scuba-diving I find it hard to believe that you're able to speak in a radio, and the mindless things they say "Oh yeah!, I cut him", "I'm coming to help you guys" (when they're in the same cramped area.The acting is really subpar, which considering the really vivid imagery of explosions tells of a costly setup. There's namely LOTS of explosions in this movie, the pyrotechnicians really had a great time.Some of the shots show really expensive effects (ie. they drive a couple of trailers off a cliff, one blows up, another one goes under the water), they sink a really big boat, etc.If you're really BORED and out of war-movies to watch, this can maybe (worst-case-scenario) be something to see. Otherwise, avoid it. Just fast-forward to the scenes with the explosions, and you might get 3-4 minutes of enjoyment from this.ps.The reason the rubber boat exploded, was because there was a case full of explosives in it.
