1.0 out of 5 stars Racistpropaganda USA style, 11 Feb 2009
By Brendan O. Clarke "brendoclarke" (Edinburgh) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
...Yet another quasi-epic celluloid abortion by a flag-sucking American racist director Peter Berg, which has the super-human Jamie Fox gallivanting around Saudi Arabia with other FBI agents (vapid plot), spouting war-wisdom and trying to infiltrate a terrorist cell, and all the while it implies that America is good and everyone else is not, particularly if they look Middle-Eastern.

By the end of this racist drivel the movie itself becomes such a flag waving rah-rah show that it's like TEAM AMERICA with real people and taking itself seriously.

Meanwhile, (in almost every scene) the eye candy (Jennifer Garner) looks on longingly while clutching a massive machine gun and handing out lollipops to distressed Arabiac children.

3.0 out of 5 stars Hollywood as Bully and Coward, 8 Jan 2009
By Michael W. Perry "Michael W. Perry, author of... (Author of Untangling Tolkien, Seattle, WA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
If you like action flicks with exploding cars and more bullets flying than in some wars, then youll enjoy this film. The basic plot is good and the actors are talented. However, two major flaws may spoil your enjoyment.

The first is driven a genre that demands violence, violence and more violence. Its FBI agents are more like Rambo than real agents. Theyre too proficient at street combat with automatic weapons to be believable, and they are too obsessed with a revenge-filled killing them all to be real pros. Good investigators dont gun down the little guys in a crime. They use them to get to the big guys.

The second problem is more serious. Hollywoodin this case Universal Picturesis absolute terrified by terrorism and it shows in the films they are producing. Illustrating that the bully and coward often inhabit the same skin, the films bullying bloat of violence closes with a cowardly pairing of scenes where the terrorists murder of children on a playground is equated to the FBIs pursuit of terrorists. Its Hollywoods way of saying to terrorists, Blow up a school or a subway, but leave us alone. Were harmless. More worthless than harmless, Id say.

Imagine a film like Patton closing with scenes that equate the U.S. Third Army crossing the Rhine with the Nazi S.S. at Auschwitz, and you get a taste of just how foul the ending to this film is.

Michael W. Perry, editor of Dachau Liberated
