I Am Soldier

Very low budget film.

If you liked ultimate force then you will probably like this too. As soon as i seen Alex Reid in the story line i instantly thought ultimate force.

I initially thought it was going to be a documentary type of film. How wrong. It only contains a few facts about the SAS and its selection.

This film could have been a lot better. It should have been a lot more factual that it actually appears.

Never mind. Hopefully there won't be a 2nd making of it. However if there is then hopefully they spend a little more money.

this is farcical,

slow and boring and shows nothing of the SAS selection or what the men have to go through and endure.

And as above the idea of a girl meets boy in the selections? and the idea that she is some sort of spy as well?? no way! I Have seen better short movies from users on you tube

acting is OK, just.I have seen worse from a grade Hollywood actors though!

if you want a real idea of what the selections are like find the below "The search for Warriors"a 2 part documentary by the SBS on Aus SAS selections

I feel the other reviews for this film to be somewhat unfair, yes it'll never win any Oscars nor will it go down as an epic, I feel it certainly provides a fair amount of realism with regard to the selection process, being a former squaddie and in my early years having gone through the same selection process and failed miserably, I feel I can comment from first hand. All I can say is from a personal experience the film certainly portrays a realistic and brutal experience. Watching this film brought back some terrible memories that I would rather forget. If any squaddies currently serving is looking to do this selection course, trust me watch this film, well at least watch the first three quarters and it will give you a taster as to what to expect.

It is a low budget film, pretty poor acting and the end mission a complete let down and unprofessional acting, but nevertheless overall entertaining, therefore 6 stars.

Although here and there it surely reminds of other movies and although some footage leans towards TV quality, this film is essentially nice.

It's the story of an initiation and even if you never fancied of enrolling yourself in an elite corp you can't help but empathizing with the young man nicely depicted by writer/director Ronnie Thompson and nicely played by Tom Hughes.

You won't truly believe the story and in the end you won't be left with any moral lesson, have learned something new or deepened any knowledge you already had. The girl (beautiful actress Alex Reid) however is attractive, Noel Clarke plays a catching Staff Sergeant Carter and if your expectations are not excessively high you'll feel nicely entertained.

This film portrays the demanding and selective path to join the UK's elite force (SAS). But it is weak and with a very basic plot/script. The TV reality show on which civilians go through a very similar process is more emotional than the movie. It portrays with realism, but it is very dull!

I recommend it to anyone who has interest in integrate SAS and wants to get a sense of what they are going to get into.
