I Am Soldier

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.

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.

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.

I didn't expect much but for some unknown reason wanted to give it a go after reading a handful of positive reviews.

The movie starts out OK, with a pretty decent depiction of the SAS selection, some even shot on location in Hereford but then "Mickey" receive his beret and its all downhill from there (about last 10 minutes of the movie). Skipping years of following jungle training, arctic training etc he is thrown straight into action when Carters team is ordered to take down a terrorist cell, complete with some hand-held nuke/dirty bomb gizmo...

The assault is so unprofessional and uninterestingly filmed that I first thought it must be some kind of training but no. I was left with a feeling of "What just happened?" It was like somebody had throw in some action shot by some high-school-YouTube-home-movie-makers at the end after the filming had ended and it made it through the distribution process without anyone noticing.

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
