I first saw this movie when I was 10. It had just come out and I had an interest in that sort of thing.Back then I loved it. Looking back it seems kind of ludicrous. But I can still view it and enjoy it despite the fact that it is somewhat dated today. The film was very appropriate for is time, the height of the Reagan era.If you happen to stumble across this movie on cable it is worthwhile viewing.
The stage curtains open ...
In the shadow of movies like "Iron Eagle" comes this fun, crowd-pleaser. A Navy SEAL team is sent into North Korea on a rescue mission, but are captured and imprisoned where they await trial for espionage. If they are found guilty, they will be executed. The teenage children of these four men catch wind of a proposed rescue operation that is discussed by military brass but then decided against to keep the peace. Enraged and frustrated, the teenagers come up with their own daring plan to infiltrate the facility where their parents are being held captive and bring them back home.
As unlikely as any of this is, I found myself really enjoying this film. It is pure adolescent fantasy, but a rousing story of courage and overcoming impossible odds to rescue the ones you love. It is also a coming-of-age tale for one of the teenagers in particular as he wants the chance to restore a good relationship with his father and gain his approval, which he so desperately needs. The acting is decent, the pacing is good, there is comedy and action.
For a fun movie experience, I recommend this one. I've seen it more than a few times over the years and am happy to have it in my own personal collection. It is dated and when it comes down to it, unrealistic. But overall, a good experience.

It could be being raised by a military family, or just my love of everything from my childhood, but I have highly enjoyed this film since I first saw it.
After a team of Navy Seals are captured by North Koreans upon completion of their mission, the children of the team embark on an attempt to rescue their parents using a rejected rescue plan. while not the best action movie ever made, the plot keeps chugging along at a comparatively quick pace. Not nearly as special-effects heavy as movies today, it still manages to hold my attention.
All in all, this movie is one to be enjoyed, especially if you have any knowledge of what it is like to have someone serving in the military.

It is Interesting to note that "the Rescue"(1986?) set still stands on the Deer Park Heights outside Queenstown New Zealand. It is the same hill that George Lucas Filmed "the Willow" in 1988 and more recently several locations for the Lord of the Rings. The hill is open to the public via a Toll Gate. The North Korean style building seems a strange thing to come across in New Zealand but it catches the attention of bus loads of Asian Tourists who got up there to see the mountain lake that the refugees of Rohan file past on retreat from the evil minions of Saramon of Isengard... Who most likely never heard of this Disney Made for TV Movie whos presents looms spookily just out of shot.
Uh oh.
I would put this movie in the same category as Iron Eagle and Red Dawn. No movie can be worse, honestly.
When I read these comments I was very surprised that many of the people even said it was an OK movie!
Oh, please, Hollywood, never ever make anything like this again.
(Ok, I haven't seen Battlefield: Earth yet)

Lo sapevi?
- QuizThe prison camp set in this movie was built (and still stands) at Deer Park Heights outside of Queenstown, New Zealand (where much of the filming of Rohan was also done for Il Signore degli Anelli - Le due torri (2002)).
- BlooperThe C-130 carrying the SEAL team was cleared to takeoff on runway 39. Runway numbers correspond to the magnetic heading of the airstrip. There are 360 degrees in a compass. Only 2 numbers are used to designate the runway heading to the nearest 10 degrees, i.e., 01 is 10 degrees, 09 is 90 degrees (due East), 18 (due. South), 27 (due West) and 36 (due North)...or any one in between, but there cannot be a 39 as there.are only 360 degrees in a circle.
