Plot so thin, it passes unnoticed.

How sad is this?

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

The movie is made so realistic it has a lot of that WoW feeling at the right moments and never tooo over the top. the suspense is done so well and the emotion is felt. Very well put together with the music and all.

Firehawk is a cheap movie with a weak plot and poor special effects. But it was nice to see Tucker Smallwood in a guest role, which I know from "Space 2063".There are quite a lot of errors in the story. An airliner, that loses height so slowly and falls into the ocean in slow-motion. Aurora 2 flying fast as hell but still being over the airbase after accelerating to mach 3. They had no time to spare and needed to reach their target as soon as possible, so they didn't mind flying around the airbase for a few minutes. The movements of Aurora 2 are unrealistic. It flies around like it doesn't care about gravity and such trivial things.The villain's henchmen are quite dumb. They leave prisoners on the floor (in front of their feet!) without having them bound and they are fooled by such obvious sayings like "Ah, my arm! I've been hit. You can come and finish me out, now." Sure thing... They are also easily distracted.Firehawk is rather bad. I've seen worse movies, but this fact doesn't make it any better.

The setting of this movie is the Vietnam War, but the content has not much to do with the Vietnam War. Everyone with any military knowledge will have pains about the way the present military matters.It was designed to be more a psycho-thriller, but honestly it is so unrealistic and low-quality it is just boring. And the character-study thing is much too constructed to be of any interest. To make matters worst, the DVD is a ultra-low-cost product one can't enjoy on monitors with a higher resolution. Save your money and time and forget this movie.

Although the filming of this picture looks low budget, the story and characters are great. I really enjoyed trying to guess who the traitor in the group was. I rate this one in my top ten Corman pictures and believe me I've seen them all.

Of all the countless Vietnam war movies made by cult director Cirio Santiago this is by far the best and most intelligent.It's basically "The Cube" in the jungle:Five very different people are put in an unexpected life threatening situation they need to master together without any help from outside. The similarities to the characters in "The Cube" are stunning: The authority figure who takes responsibility and suddenly turns bad, the medic and "peace protester", the outsider,... and as a replacement for the maze of cubes there's a dense jungle filled with booby traps and deadly enemies.If you liked "The Cube" you'll love this extremely well though out and executed low budget movie.
