This Movie Can Only Be Described With One Word.

Not even bad in a good way

True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

The cinematography makes me nauseous. Very bumpy. Nothing accurate about the SEALs. Terrible movie.

To start off, i'll say what everyone else has, its not as good as the first, has nothing to do with the first, and the action is fairly weak. Though as its own film bearing no resemblance but the title to the 1st, its actually pretty good. This movie spends most of it's time focusing on the relationship between highly secret military operations, and the the politicians who authorized it.You have SEAL Team 1,The president, his advisers, and later on a South Korean ambassador, After the SEALS have been compromised the movie focuses on what options they have left, with a few bursts of action from the stranded SEAL team. It shows how they come to their decisions, what affects them, and what they have to consider, from being detected, to what happens afterward, and what if everything goes wrong and war breaks out. The main fault with this film is it has the overused gruff military stereotype known as General Vance who simply want to blow the s**t out of everything to move the political plot along, if there was a more reasonable commander it would've been a bit more effective.The action segment focuses on the SEALs attempting to survive behind enemy lines, with the main character often flashbacking to his training to help him survive. It's alright but not as cool as the original film where an entire army is hunting down one man. The actors play their roles very well, and their acting is very good but most of the characters don't get developed very far, the SEALs are badass(especially Keith David as the Master chief), the president is safety conscious, the General is a warmonger, and the SK Ambassador always complains about how the US government never takes the rest of the world into consideration, thats where the film tends to suffer.While not entirely accurate to the real world as we tend to see it, and with the action being sub-par and the very annoying color correction done to the N. Korean scenes making it look like a whitish green wasteland, i still enjoy watching this film. Fans of the original will be disappointed unless they have an open mind, but its not as bad as many seem to claim it to be, its a interesting thriller, addressing both military and political issues surrounding most covert ops, so give it a chance, its about 1.6 hrs long so even if you don't like it, it wont be a huge waste of time

Not many movies are so bad, I stop watching them. This is one. I saw the first Behind Enemy Lines, and it was an OK action movie. Not too special, but quite enjoyable to watch. I expected something similar with this part II. Boy, was I wrong! For an action movie, first of all this film is s - l - o - o - o - w - w: only after about an hour the action starts. Second, if you are a bit sensitive, you will get motion sick by the totally unnecessary jerky camera movements. If it weren't that annoying, it would be laughable that the director tried to hide the lack of real tension or action by heavy shaking of the camera. Third, the reaction of the North Koreans is totally unbelievable. I mean, a prisoner who is liberated will commit suicide?? And a North Korean army officer will allow an American seal to blow up a rocket?? Already a shallow introduction to North Korean society will reveal how it functions and what role the army plays.I couldn't take it any longer, I tried, but finally I HAD to stop watching. Don't bother watching this movie, it's a waste of time.

There was absolutely no point to watching this dreadful movie. I will admit to turning this piece of crap off after a mere 20 minutes, which is something that I have never done before. First, Navy Seals insert into North Korea to take out missiles - an absolutely unbelievable concept considering that a bomb would do the trick. I was willing to suspend my belief on this. Then, what foils the Seals? A freakin' kid, of course. I guess the Seals flunked training where they learned to blend in with the environment. If a 5 year old fascinated by a rat could see them, then I'd draft a militia before sending those guys into battle. So, the Seals defy logic again, and chase a kid - bam! You guessed it, right into an enemy village with their muzzles to the floor while running. After that, they ensure blowing their cover again by grabbing one of the North Korean soldier's wives, and then LET HER GO to run away and alert the soldiers. I could not make this up. Therefore, after a 100 pound woman fights off the supposedly heavily trained unit. The Navy Seals run out again, exposing themselves, and again without weapons drawn, to enter a stare-off with the wive's husband (the soldier). He waits literally 20 seconds, whips his pistol out, and shoots the Navy Seal in a place that would obviously defeat the round. The Seals shoot back, but who cares anyways. They only hit one guy and fire like maniacs. Then, they go to ambush the North Koreans by running at them, and get mowed down WWI style. The last Navy Seal who survives sees the Grim Reaper, and a TIGER (what!?). That was when I turned this piece of crap off and vowed to never watch it again. Behind Enemy Lines II insults the first movie, which wasn't that great to begin with. This movie, however, made it look like the Godfather. It's an insult that Hollywood would think the populace would find this movie mildly entertaining. Don't be surprised when Dollar Stores refuse to stock it even in their bargain bins.
