Spidersecu Don't Believe the Hype

Infamousta brilliant actors, brilliant editing

Tacticalin An absolute waste of money

Quiet Muffin This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

Elias Egan I can't see why anybody would like this If you do you are Pro War and Pro Gun. The cost of a war is never mentioned in terms of what is gained from the killing of many civilians that get caught in the crossed hairs. The don't even have to be in a war zone to be affected for the act of a stupid meaningless war. This film acts like a commercial for (Name your branch here). If this tyoe of film entertains you then I have to beg to ash you "Why". This was miscast and poorly executed. The war is seen as "Good" when in fact it has done nothing but harm to not only to the people in the war zone but for the United States as well. I have never seen a film that made me this mad.

zyxnix First of all and most important, Julie Benz is smoking hot. Most of the time she is parading around in heels showing off great legs. A+++ Michael Shanks was trippin' me out cause at various times I thought he was going to go full blown serial killer. That being said.....this is a thoroughly depressing movie...I either wanted to shoot myself or jump out a window to end theirs and my own agony. Watch it once and never go back. Too depressing.

Debzreview I've watched this twice and will watch it again. I wasn't sure about it at in the beginning but when Amanda and Jim first met it was clear they were going to be good together. They had great chemistry. Jim was definitely a keeper, one of the good guys and you could really feel his heartbreak when Amanda pulled away near the end. The scene on base at the bus made it all worthwhile and of course the surprise homecoming. It was nice to have lead characters who were not wealthy and counting their pennies like the rest of us. It was overall a really good, heartwarming Christmas story. It's definitely worth a watch.

Jack Vasen This movie is predictable and never really rises above that. There was nothing in the story that made it special.The acting was mostly good. I was particularly impressed with Michael Shanks. He plays a disciplined and serious man who is a product of a lot of years in the army, yet he is still able to show some emotion including a positive attitude. Julie Benz has a difficult part. I don't think you can watch this movie and not ask why her character would follow the course that she does. And I'm not sure the answer came through. Perhaps someone in that situation would get it, but the actor's and writer's job is to show it to the audience. I'm not saying Benz did a bad job. I tend to think more that the role might have been too much for anyone, at least the way it was written. Even Sergeant Mullins' choices were hard to understand. Shanks made a stab at it, but again I don't think the limitations of the film made it possible to portray it well.There were definitely some heartwarming moments and I think on the whole I would recommend it with some reservations.
