Default Tears in the sun
I watched this the other day and was left compltely unimpressed.

How did it get such good reviews?
They are touting it as the best action movie for Bruce Willis since Die Hard but I found it completely lacking and highly predictable al the way through.

DL it but dont waste money on it:thumbdown:

to me all the war movies are starting to blur together. they don't seem to have any originality. Everything after Saving Private Ryan has yet to impress me.

I never bothered watching it 'cause I figured it would be as shitty as Black Hawk Down.
Propaganda movies...

Maybe I can't remember it wasn't any good though.

Basic was pretty good...but I wouldn't consider it a war movie.

"Getting good reviews" is different from "they got some good sounding quotes in the commercial."
