Rangers

What I learned from Rangers:

1-There are a lot of token black guys 2-Briefings to super-elite Ranger units are done minutes before being deployed on a mission while flying miles above earth in a plane. 3-It goes from sunrise to midnight in about 5 minutes. 4-Charlie Sheen does many non-mentioned and short cameos in this B-rated film. 5-Where'd the SCUBA gear come from? 6-After falling and then deploying their parachutes, miles from shore they know exactly where to find a cache of deflated boats. 7-Rangers can change laced army boots to swimming flippers in a matter of seconds, while falling at terminal velocity. 8-AK-47 weapons that the Rangers possess, magically can change to MP5 submachine guns. 9-You SHOULD look at the camera. 10-After firing a bazooka round and blowing up part of a building and creating lots of smoke, no fire alarms nor sprinkler systems go on. 11-When boarding a helicopter, the shape of the call numbers change. 12-The Rangers can instantly transport themselves into different positions, like on the helicopter. 13-Your are supposed to blink A LOT when shooting an automatic weapon. 14-You don't bleed when you are shot, not until at least many hours after the fact. 15-Military hair regulations are not in effect for women officers. 16-In terrorist land Brandy and Whisky are the same thing, and when they are poured, bubbles appear. 17-Elite military soldiers live off base, in big houses with wives. 18-Alex can commute back and forth from Florida to DC in a matter of seconds with his friend, many times a day. 19-Elite soldier's marksmanship is terrible at short range. 20-Pistol clips hold about 30 rounds. 21-Grenades, when thrown get to their target very fast then blow up. 22-You can be promoted to Sergeant to Lieutenant in a matter of days.

Okay...this movie is terrible. However, I'd almost have to recommend it. First of all, the plot holes are hilarious. Second, just watching the main characters fire their guns is hours of entertainment -- they are so afraid that they can hardly keep their eyes open. But best thing about this movie takes planning, patience, and heavy drinking. Go and rent this, Navy Seals, Red Heat, and Invasion USA. Watch all of them, saving Rangers for last. You will fall out of your seat laughing, especially if you've planned the proper refreshments. Nearly every action scene in Rangers is cut directly from the other three movies. Not copied, cut directly. In order to retain some semblance of continuity, the piss-poor actors of Rangers have to change costumes three times in the opening action sequence to match the clothes with the actors in the scenes they spliced in. It is painfully and comedically obvious, however, when the footage switches between movies. You wouldn't believe it unless you saw it -- I would guess over 25 minutes of 90 minute film are pulled out other movies. If you are bored and want a laugh, try it some time.

I thought this movie would be cool like those US Seals and Delta Force movies that keeping coming out. I really like low budget features; it shows how hard the film makers have to work to get a decent project out. But this Rangers piece of junk is just an insult to every 80's action film fan out there. Even my wife recognized the stock footage from Delta Force in the first ten minutes. They stole significant fight footage from Delta Force, Navy Seals, Invasion USA many times over, and the bus scene was obviously from Red Heat. How could film makers put this out? So sad. Why do I have to watch a Chuck Norris movie without Chuck Norris, but instead starring that dorky guy from Seinfeld that was pretending to sell computers out of the garage of George Costanzas father? Why?

I thought when i first saw this movie that it would be really good, but what a let down. During the scenes in which they go to syria, its pretty obvious that they scammed the footage from the movie NAVY SEALS movie starring Charlie Sheen. I feel this movie is a complete waste of time that completely ruins the footage taken from navy seals. Don't watch this movie unless you want a real let downer.

Army Rangers and a CIA operative sneak into a fictitious Mid-East country to kidnap a Political/Terrorist leader. The mission is a set-up and one man gets left behind. He believes he was betrayed by the Ranger Team and his CIA handlers. For five millions dollars and a chance at revenge he turns renegade. Now there is no need to watch the movie.

EXCEPT, this has got to be the worst movie never made. That's right never made. It consists of copied footage from a lot of movies. And that's about the only thing about it to recommend. You can turn this piece of crap into a trivia game. Name the stolen movie footage. The winner never has to watch it again.

Look for footage from Navy Seals, Delta Force, Invasion USA, Hidden, Invasion USA again and again and Red Heat. And that's just the ones I spotted. Its not hard there is no continuity and the film stock doesn't even match. My favorite scene is during the car chase when the antihero Glenn Plummer shoots out the rear windshield without hitting the front windshield.
