SEAL Team VI

I am currently working in Afghanistan. I just watched this big steaming pile of a film on AFN. I was in the USAF back in the 80's and even I could see everything that was wrong militarily w/ this Navy film. The film makers couldn't find ANYONE to ask simple military questions? This film had sooo much potential, but fell soooo flat. The above reviews do a good job of listing the flaws in this film. I just hope that the filmmaker reads these reviews and learns from them for all future endeavors. HINT: When you use stock footage of an F-18 bringing in your airstrike, keep using F-18 footage. Do not jump between F-14s, A-10s, and F-22s.

We have all seen some pretty awful low budget movies, but this one takes it. The acting is horrendous, there are blatant cases where a main character is talking to a secondary character and the second persons voice is clearly added in post.

The video quality is awful, but particularly in any action scene of planes, in fact it looked so bad I was concerned that my video card was failing.

Uniforms used in the movie were not period correct, pistols that don't blow back to eject a cartridge, incorrect titles for personnel, and just plain lack of attention to detail. I didn't watch this anticipating a masterpiece, but this was so bad I have to assume it was done by someone who just wanted to throw money away so say that they were "movie producers" to coked up attractive women on a boat off the coast of Florida.

In closing, I watched this movie for free through Amazon, and I was still annoyed. If I paid 10 bucks to see this at the theater when it first came out, I'd probably never have gone to another theater movie in my life.

The answers to this are a simple Google search away. You couldn't even take the time to look it up? SERIOUSLY. Twenty minutes into the show this is what I noticed 1. He's wearing Chief Petty Officer insignias on his collar, but the politician refers to him as Commander. 2. That's not a proper uniform shirt that's a work shirt. 3. Ribbons are aligned centered and cover the flap of his pocket. 4. The wings belong on the pocket flap BELOW the ribbons. 5. His belt wraps all the way around to his side!!!! 6. The planes are wrong for the time frame. 7. He's not wearing a name tag above his right pocket. 8. That shirt looks as if it was pulled out of the wrapping that morning. A Chief Petty Office working at the Whitehouse would be starched and their uniform in perfect order. 9. The Department of Homeland Security didn't exist yet. and number 10: The Seals are wearing flight suites!! Flight suites devoid of any rank or military designation. Oh, and one of the guys is sporting a US Marines uniform cap, which is bad enough, but he's also wearing it on the flight line. Come on people. It doesn't matter if you hate the government and the military, these men and women are doing a dangerous and difficult job FOR YOU.

. . . should drop to bended knees with their collective faces in the dirt and BEG Seal Team VI for forgiveness. IT. IS. THAT. BAD.

The story (and I take literary license for calling it a story) is somehow connected to Operation Desert Shield, although the connection is tenuous at best. Basically, it's drop behind enemy lines (by HALO jump from a C-130 AFTER going aloft in a helo?) shoot at Islamists, get shot at by Islamists, and use a jumpy camera to give that "intensity of action" effect.

Nevermind that the uniforms are wrong, the weapons are wrong, and the air support comes from stock footage rather than real aircraft.

Then, there's the 10 minute "patriotic sermon" at the end. I haven't heard a diatribe like that since the third "Billy Jack" movie.

The same guy was director, writer, producer, sound department, editorial department and underwater cameraman. He has only one credit on IMDb. This film shows why.

If this is the only thing on TV, go sort your sock drawer. It will be infinitely more satisfying.

listen people do your self a favour and avoid watching this movie. the guns are without and triggers , the flashes and sparks are all computer generated , the explosions are all fake, the cut scenes are all copied from other ones and it has unnecessary things e.g they keep on showing the same building getting bombarded over and over again. there are pointless scenes and so unrealistic. the directors really did have a tight budget. so if you want to see this movie you might as well search it up in a search engine and watch it online. there is no point in buying dis movie or even renting it. i admit the acting was fairly good but there was no realism at all, as in one seen they had to save a kid from dying because he got shot. so obviously the seals would have medical packs or something because its obvious who would go into combat fully prepared and without field dressings, they know they are dealing with guns someone is bound to get shot. so if it was a real life situation they would've been fully prepared
