Ho-hum this movie is dumb

Let's not beat around the bush, this movie was ordinary - and I'm being nice. It didn't even have glimpses of brilliance. It was let down by bad direction, and bad acting by many of the cast. Though Brice Bexter did a good job for his character, it still wasn't enough to bring some quality to the movie.

Apart from bad directing, it needed a solid script, and the editing could do some work. Plus the action sequences, where appalling. It never gave me a sense of danger nor stress in the situation the main characters were in. It failed to convey the uncertainty and the horrors of being in a fire fight in close quarters. The Rambo movies were more realistic compared to what this movie could muster. And Rambo movies were not that realistic.

Too many flaws in the movie to mention, but you get the picture.

VERDICT: Watch it if there isn't anything else available. Or maybe just take a nap instead.

Barely watchable

See it only if you're desperate to pass time in a lockdown as i am, just keep your hopes low.

It just plods along

This really isn't great. It plods along and every turn is predictable. It's not terrible. Just not that good.

Wow. Really bad

Some great talent here but this movie ...well...it's a joke. Great story line that was lost in what was most likely horrible writing and even worse directing. They should have saved their money Can I get a refund please

Unexpected comedy

We have never laughed so much while watching a movie which was supposed to be action 😆. The acting was something... And the storyline was sooooo predictable. It was all so slow and weird. Like the switches between scènes were kinda random sometimes. If you want to watch it, the scènes where they are shooting, some People fall down screaming as a Patrick star fish wannabe. It is a good laugh! But wasn't worthy of the 6 euro we spend on it...

I should have read all reviews here

My goodness,

I watched this movie based on the global ranking without further reading the other reviews. Was this the mistake of my life ! This over-rated no-Rambo bull_+%¨* movie is really bad: bad acting, no feelings or emotions of getting faster to his wife to release her, after 60' minutes nothing happened unless some flashbacks, the fighting is really crap and script is worthless.... Really not worth your time to look at this.

Very bad, a lot of talking and unnecessary scenes to watch that don't upgrade the movie to a higher level.

Really bad.

Redemption Day

Captain Brad Paxton's (Gary Dourdan) is a decorated Marine who served in Syria. He is also haunted by the events during his tour there.

After he returns home. Paxton's wife Kate (Serinda Swan) goes on an important archaeological dig in Morocco.

However she is kidnapped by ISIS type terrorists and held for ransom. The US government drags its feet as it might ruin an oil deal. So Paxton goes on a rescue mission.

This low budget action movie is low on any meaningful action. The lead actor is bland.

This turgid movie needed several high octane action scenes. It delivers a poor one at the end. Most of it is in the dark.

The film wants to make important points about cynical diplomacy and the influence of oil. It fails at all levels.

Andy Garcia and Martin Donovan are wasted.

I Actually Feel Bad for Cameramens

I mean after 10 minutes into the movie i know it is going to suck and started to fast forward. My god when i saw Samy Naceri as leader who is muslim live in africa, speaks french but also has english dubbed over his mount very very badly i lost all hope for that movie. Very very very bad acting, slow moving action (fi you can call that action), nightmares which try to be bad war experience however they looked like 10 year old children first time playing cod; i mean he throw grenade at bad guys at some point just by standing just in front of them like 3 seconds while taking the pin out. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME !!!

A Spectacular Debut!

I truly loved the movie! Although it's the first film directed by Hicham Hajji, it was absolutely amazing!

Horrible, one of worst movies i've ever seen

What a waste of time and money to make a movie so bad, my respect for the professionals, but don't do something like that anymore.

Good Movie! Worth a watch!

Just seen all the negative reviews, and then all the 10/10's It's not a 10, but it's not a 1!!!!

Do people forget that movie production has been restricted because of the pandemic??? You won't get a film like before, until out situation betters, enjoy what is available!!

It's good, the action is constant, and dynamic music plays everytime we see a convoy or a car from a far when driving anywhere 😂

Wouldn't be surprised if there was a sequel
