    Blackops with Lance Henriksen

    While the movie starts off strong, good background, decent acting and suspenseful script..... it kinda heads south about midway. The scene where the female, girl soldier gets all bloody was OK, until she had to have a shower in the middle of murder, deaths, and Kaos ..... Who does that? Then the plot slowly fades till the end with more deaths and her glowing eyes......I'm still trying to grasp what transpired... Not a clear ending. I've played through it several times and i just sort of made up my own ending. Seems the script writers just went on break and never came back. Sad, because this could have been so much more.

    This movie would be good if...

    the script was rewritten and the film re-shot.

    The acting was watchable but the dialog was pretty blasé.

    The director must have blown his budget in the first 20 minutes of gore because after that it was "let's turn the lights down real low so no one can see anything and generate some fear that way." Although the cast only had one woman, they still found a way to have a scene with her naked in the shower. If that doesn't speak volumes about this film, maybe you will enjoy it.

    I wont spoil it for you with details but the ending sucks. You'll be able to guess what happens at the end by 0:30 in (military time).

    Don't waste your time here, watch Outpost again... it's the same story done on a ship...

    Hitler would be spinning in his grave

    Its so bad its ridiculousness. Super Nazi from the 40s on a ship sailing around for 60 years? Everything is just badly done. The whole movie was shot in the dark as if they couldn't afford lighting. It starts off as a terrorist movie and if they stuck to that agenda for the whole flick it would have been better. But no, lets put those evil German Nazi's into the movie, no wait, super Nazi's. Sigh' its always the Germans.

    Its an insult to the American Navy, the Nazis's (if you can insult those idiots) and the Arabs alike.

    I'm glad I watched this at work while I was meant to be working.

    Awful!

    Even taking into account that this is low-budget, Black Ops is truly a horrendous pile of steaming crap. Watch this at your own peril. The film combines an element of supernatural horror and an action/adventure military flick, but fails on both counts.

    There are better films that touch on the same current topic of Middle Eastern terrorism and the use of torture and extraordinary rendition. There are also numerous horror movies that are infinitely more satisfying.

    The camera work and audio are crisp and professional-grade. The storyline, dialogue and acting are not.

    1 star out of 10.

    Not that bad for a rated B movie

    I would give it a 5 out of 10 as far as rated b movies are concerned. Maybe even a 6 if you add munchies. It reminds me of the video game wolfenstein. One slight naked scene with the beautiful Katherine Randolph's .

    You have your WWII-era battleship an evil Nazi entity, enormous amounts of bloody body parts, dead corpse hanging upside down. At first I couldn't figure out who killed everyone on the waters and how did they escape or did they? To find out as the movie progressed it might be a ghost! How do you fight a supernatural being? you'll have to watch the movie. don't forget the popcorn! definitely watchable.
