Do not see this movie if you are really into performances and acting, because this is not that type of movie. It is Violent! Quite Violent! Yet if you like bullets and explosions and fires and crashes and other destruction sequences, then this movie works. It is a typical far fetched action movie, where the main actor is "SUPERHUMAN", but is really a mere mortal with skills that would make him a superman without the ability to fly ---- no wait I think he does fly in many of the explosions. Plot is almost non-existent. The bad guy --- from terminator II --- is really a bad guy and admits to being insane and acts accordingly. There is some humor regarding the Terminator during a car chase and appears to be intentional, and it is cued so the audience should catch it clearly. There are some scenes that drag out and you can see the bad acting in those, but for the most part killing or getting killed does not require great acting and there is a LOT of that! Overall it is entertaining, if only for all the violence and explosions with neat fire effects ... some almost look like little nukes with high yields. If you have NOTHING better to see, then this is a movie for you.
So, another small budget film by WWE, what are they thinking? without a good and a solid story line how can they expect to do well? Saw an early preview, i had high hopes after watching the trailer but the movie didn't live up to it, short, cramped, the ending really didn't make sense.
After See no evil they thought an action movie would do the trick but i guess or lets say i hope they should end it here. The acting was actually not so bad considering this was Cena's first movie he did a good job. But his acting alone cannot make the movie good.
I'd say that they should take some time, develop a good plot, pick a good director and then only move on to make a movie.
Really a waste of precious time and effort though it was free! I'd give it 5/10 (mainly because i sympathize with Cena who did a good job).

Plot line is weak? Yes. The acting is bad? Well... you can't expect much acting from such a weak plot line anyway. But what I liked about this movie is that it is NOT an action movie, it is a comic action movie. Just sit back and enjoy some great explosions, fighting scenes and snappy comic remarks. I couldn't stop laughing through the whole movie. At least it looks like they didn't try to make a "serious" action movie. They tried to make a movie for those who enjoy WWE, I guess. And that is why I'm giving it an 8/10, since I think the movie fulfills it's purpose.
It has some of the greatest explosions I've ever seen in a movie, seriously, kudos to the SFX team. The comic remarks vary from silly things like the "I hate rock candy" to references to other movies (when you see the movie you'll understand). That is why I say this isn't a "serious" movie.
To watch this movie I suggest a few friends, some beers and turn off all brain activity. I did that and had a good time watching it. And I still use quotes from the movie to grab a quick laugh.

WWE champion John Cena makes his acting debut in WWE Films' "The Marine". No matter what all the other critics say, this film is not all that bad! I grew up during the 80's watching and loving such action flicks as Commando, Cobra, Tango & Cash, Action Jackson, and The Marine is no worse than any of those cheesy 80's films we all know and love. I believe that is the appeal of this film to me!
John Cena plays a marine by the name of John Triton. After disobeying a direct command during active duty in the Middle East, he is discharged and returns home to his wife in South Carolina. Bored with his new found freedom from the service, little does he know that some unwanted action is waiting for him.
Like I mentioned before, this is a fun action flick in the vein of the old 80's action movies. A very predictable plot, but a lot of fun! Who says that every film has to be like The Lord Of The Rings, or The Godfather to be enjoyed by people on a boring Sunday afternoon. The Marine does what it was meant to, it entertains the audience with unrealistic action and explosions.
John Cena can not act outside of the squared circle. In my humble opinion, he is not even a great wrestler, so I expected his wooden acting skills. Still, in this type of movie, who cares? Van Damme can't act either, but his early films were fun like this.
Overall, I give this film a 5/10. Great for a boring rainy afternoon, and a definite must for all 80's action fans.

Lemme just say this. For all of those people who are comparing this to "good" movies, remember that tastes for such things vary from person to person. I personally liked this movie. Yes, it was corny. Yes, it had 15 explosions (I counted). YES it was unrealistic, but, well, it made a nice get away. John Cena is very funny, very good at being macho, and is very wooden. I wouldn't suggest watching this movie if you're looking for something to pin a blue ribbon on. It's a funflick. No questions asked. As for Robert Patrick. I heard he enjoyed doing this movie. Who wouldn't, it would be fun.
I'd wager WWE made the thing in the first place because they had extra money to spend.
I LOVED IT!!!
Better than "Man on Fire", that's for damned sure.

- WissenswertesDuring the car chase Manu Bennett says, "This guy is like The Terminator." This is an obvious reference to Robert Patrick who played the T-1000 in Terminator 2: Tag der Abrechnung (1991). After the line is spoken, the audience sees Patrick's eyes look into the rear-view mirror in the car.
- PatzerWhen Triton bursts in the terrorists' hideout, he wildly sprays a room full of hostages with fully automatic fire, while "aiming" from the hip. Not even the most incompetent Marine would ever do this, much less a Force Recon Marine.
