Not bad for a TV Movie.

This movie about a group of "Weekend Warriors", reservists, who are sent to Honduras to build a runway. Shortly after arriving an engineering group is sent to a small village to repair a bridge as a favor for the US Ambassador. Captain John Deason begins to question who he is really building the bridge for, the villagers?, or someone else? This movie was interesting, in that it showed something of where reservists come from and what they do when they are called up. The major actors in this movie are recognizable from more recent tv shows and movies. The acting was good and the locations looked authentic. The movie was interesting enough to watch for an hour and a half.

Standard Procedure

I enjoy watching this movie for only two reasons: because of its unabashed 80s giddiness and Daniel Stern, who is really the anchor of this film about army reservists deployed to Honduras to protect the construction of a bridge.

Although its subject is very unique, the film never does anything unexpected. It's all fairly typical military yarn, but does have great performances and an intense conclusion. Unfortunately, it does little to develop the characters or hold any sense of gravity.

Filmmaking-wise it has a boyscout's by-the-books competency, but it does not transcend its TV movie expectations.
