Review by GEORGE R WARBURTON
I've seen this movie three times in the last year or so. It's well worth watching again.

I've seen this movie three times in the last year or so. It's well worth watching again.
As expected, this film has lots of shooting, killing, fighting, explosions and special effects. The plot line is interesting and contains some surprises, which is always a good thing.
So, it is an action packed entertaining film, but that is it. I always find some resistance in giving in a film that has the special forces of the bad side being so bad at aiming their guns while the good guys always hit. That kind of plot is soooo overused that it has lost its usefulness a long time ago.
