These guys stroll trough enemy terrain talking and joking like they’re in the park. That’s how you get killed.

I have no real world experience in the special ops arena, but something tells me that real tier 1 personnel don’t talk this kind of shit.

You can always tell when Hollywood does not use experienced military advisors.

This movie is so bad i was waiting for steven Segal to show up.

So many gigs in the clip before they exit the aircraft. If 02 is required they would have donned their masks much earlier. If 3000 AGL was the initiation of the pull sequence and he fumbled with his pull handle like that, he would have been down to around 1500-1000 AGL and his Cyprus would have deployed his reserve. He could have also been the lowest under canopy and the rest of the team would have to fly their canopies to him. Chances are likely they would land way short of their intended landing zone. Also, the aircraft cabin would not be pressurized and no casual conversations would be taking place. Last but not least, the jumpmaster , or lack thereof, did not perform his duties.

HALO jumping from a helicopter? The writers must have overlooked the High Altitude part of the acronym

Walking and talking does not happen

As a veteran. This looks great but… I’ve walked point, and every other squad position… there isn’t any conversation on a march or an Op especially in enemy territory! You better be too far apart. There is noise discipline. Shut up and concentrate on your job!

This is stupid. A JTAC is no joke, he’s not gonna go into this like a scare middle schooler at his first coed dance.

Never realized how much Russel Crowe and John Goodman look the same. I think I would pay good money to watch them switch parts in The Big Lebowski and Gladiator

I was only a Seabee. The most aggressive thing we did was security patrols. We never talked while on patrol. Hand signals only. Maybe an occasional close whisper. They're BSing like they're at the water cooler!

Practically any real operator would tell you how grateful they are for their JTACs.

Just a sidenote, An MQ-9 Reaper can carry more than 2 AGM hellfires and more than 1 BLU-118/GBU. You can even watch another scene where the other wing has another loadout of two hellfires and one GBU. A little detail that they missed but it's hollywood.

In Vietnam, my platoon was waiting to rendezvous with another platoon walking through the jungle. We could hear them walking [no one was talking] 20 minutes before they reached our position...

Disappointed as it strayed from realism almost immediately. If it was a sterilized mission, they wouldn't have waited to tell him on the f-in plane for crying out loud. Second, they wouldn't have any doubt about a "rookie operator" because no operator is a rookie due to their intense training. Lastly, they wouldn't just throw in some newbie on a team without integrating him before hand. They're making this movie look like something comparable to if Rambo and Heartbreak Ridge had a baby. Very disappointing. I HATE movies like this. If you're going to go for over the top fictitious b.s., then SELL it as fictitious b.s., not some realistic reflection on operators, because it's not.

Entertaining movie, but with details that can make even someone who has been out of the Army since 1989 groan. There is one scene with a Blackhawk landing at an LZ. Depending on the camera angle, it switches between a Huey and a Blackhawk. I thought there was an OpFor Huey that made it to the LZ before the Blackhawk and was battling the Blackhawk when it arrived! Took me a while to realize that the Director either didn't know the difference or didn't care.

Russel, Russel, Russel. What have you done to yourself? You blew up!

Am I high or does the guy at 8:42 not have a magazine in his gun?

Tats for just this moment. That is top tier douchary.

Reminds of when I flew concrete gliders over Rangoon in '42.

@8:40, operater has no mag in the rifle.

Out now on Prime, $19.99 I'll wait.

i walk in the woods a lot......and i never walk this way in the woods.....and i'm not in any kind of conflict situation.....but i would never walk in the woods like these guys are doing

Reality - they would be kissing JTACs ass. He has the phone to god and his ability to smite anything.

Things you don't say as a Tier 1 Operator: Walk in the park When this is over, i get to see my baby for the first time Remember your training I'm getting married when i rotate back to the states I'm looking forward to civilian life when i get out next month Remember....short, controlled bursts Pull your chute to 3.000 feet. This is low opening insertion Watch your back out there Things you DO say as a Tier 1 Operator: FINALLY....some goddamn action.

Blah, blah, blah. o you really think these special ops guys are going to blather away while strolling through the jungle on their way to carryout a mission. I don't think so. Maybe on the plane, but not...oh, never mind. It's just another bad movie with a fat Russel Crowe leading.

I’ve always like Russell Crowe but I’m amazed how much weight he’s put on. Must be the good life. Lord knows I’m not as skinny as I was.

Gravy SEALS

I hope special ops aren’t this bad.

Russell eatin' good.

Russel has let himself go since he stopped throwing phones.

I was a medic in a conventional unit assigned to special forces and special operations training sites, in part because I was on an ambulance crew (which these groups didn't have when I was in) and in part because I spoke 2 eastern European languages at the height of the Cold War. I was just a dumb kid awed by these elite soldiers. The main take-away I had was that I was never talked down to. Every place I went, I was treated with respect and taken under the wing of the guys I was providing coverage for, even though they had their own medics that had far superior training to anything I had. The guys were family men, mostly religious, and many enlisted guys had degrees. I never witnessed anything like this video, and I wasn't even a JTAC. The guys I always saw were humble but tough, had a great sense of humor, and their eliteness didn't go their heads. They treated me with respect and didn't need to put on a tough act even though these were the toughest guys I ever met.

You don’t deploy a Shute at 3000 feet in combat situations.. You fly at 3000 feet and and jump out you fall after ten seconds the Shute deploys giving you 26 seconds glide then landing . Its safer and less chance of any enemy being able to get to any landing zone beforehand…

Ambling through the jungle loudly shooting the breeze. Thanks for the trailer, YT, this way I won’t waste my money. Act of Valor showed how it should be. Why this movie now?!

You know when they don’t use military advisors. I’ve never heard anyone say “op” instead of operation. They also don’t talk trash like this when you’re about to be on the objective. That shit is for locker room, not the battlefield.

Hey Russel...Jenny Craig...Or Ozempic.....please....for your health...

When did Russell turn into uncle Festus?

This movie looks bad ass!!!

Black Hawk Down was the real deal when placing in comparison the Rangers and Delta Company. Military advisers from A-Z came a recipe of intellectural brilliance

LOL. Anyone who have ever been in the shit in any way just can't watch these movies. So you know, this scene have never played out on any SF-SOF-JSOC mission ever. Could you imagine speaking to a team mate in this way, creating a tense work environment prior to going out the door? LOL. What a fucking joke.

There wouldn't be only 4 dudes strolling through the woods with a Tier 2 JTAC in an op like this. Especially if they're tier one. There would also be a helluva alot more people back at the TOC if there was somebody missing.

Any minute now the killer avalanche will complete this script.

Glad to see all the comments sayin what I was feeling….

..reminds me of the old Combat TV show where they'd casually stroll on home down the middle of a country road, all bunched up together after the firefight...as if all the Germans had gone home for a supper of weiners and saurkraut......

"lose the sir, I work for a living"

Can we get anymore silly stereotypes in this movie?

1:29: A "Walk in the park" - yeah, of several hundred yards, just to join back up with your group because he took that long to say that line to the other guy before jumping right behind the other guy. Hollywood!!

Tier 1 never talked so much

Didn’t know John Goodman was in this movie 😏 He’s going a little grey

6:00 … Question. When walking through the woods in enemy territory, is it common to engage in chit-chat?

I guess they're only 'quiet' professionals in garrison? WTF?! You walk and talk less than 2-3 meters apart, stop, have a conversation, then use hand signals no more than 3 meters distance? More than 20+ years of the last war, and Hollywood can't get their shit straight? Hell, a team of 1st time paintball asshat CEOs know enough to shut their pie holes when moving to contact. I'm surprised the director didn't instruct one of the "Deltas" to play the harmonica during the 'dramatic' moments in the scene.

Old Crow has been eating too many spuds

"Let's take this lady to a dance".

So far best war movie this year.

Pass the PUKE bucket!

Prior services dudes help me out. Did that look and sound like a Helo? If so, do helos typically fly at an altitude where 02 is necessary?

You talk Smack in the barracks. You are on your game in the chopper. This isn't how it is.

You get a JTAC attached to you, you thank whatever God you believe in. This whole scene made my balls hurt

'Starship Troopers' had more credibility than this low brow impersonation of a computer game.

My ops were just like this. Only we smoked cigarettes.

Them all giving affirmation is scary as shit. That's SO MUCH BETTER than shit talk. It means they're scared and they're serious. That is SO much better than tough talk. This is clearly THE next action flick. Ya'll know how to write tension. Nice touch going smokeless tobacco. Damn, that's real.

This movie had a budget of $37.50. $32.50 of that was Russel Crowes salary. The rest went to bottled water and saltines for the crew.

As a Marine, we all know the obvious flaws with the tactics etc, but its also just a movie, not a simulation or documentary. If every movie was tactically spot on, it'd be the most boring shit to watch ever. You really want to watch 4 guys maneuver through the jungle without any kind of dialogue added? No, you wouldnt, unless youre just a tacti-cool douche who tells people they should thank you for your service all the time. Its a movie, just laugh and relax and enjoy it.

Saw the movie, good movie.

This is just….bad. Utterly unrealistic. So much so it takes you out of it

The editing sucks, you see Russell putting on the white glove after he was already shown wearing it. Another dei bomb from Hollywood.

Good time to figure out and plan the mission After you're on the ground and moving in enemy territory!

Anybody ever see the movie Bat-21? This seems like an updated version of it….

Why on earth is the dialogue censored 😂

3 of 5 stars IMDB

The funny thing is predator had a similar start with cheesy dialogue and it worked. Somehow it falls flat here

This is a very fictional way of Hollywood-tising a tactical scenario. Tier 1 operators, LOL, I've got qualifications, but I cannot judge SpecOps. These actors would not get out of the second dry run for a mission the way they're portraying their assigned roles. Final thought, were they bunched up enough for a one grenade to take out most of the team at the end?

don't think SpecOps guy would mumbling like that in an Ops..from my Experience...we are focused towards our missions....not talking about any Drama back home...Coz my CO told me once 'focus on your missions, you'll live longer'

Wow. 10 minutes of nothing.

I don't know......picking on the new guy doesn't seem very team oriented......LOL!

Loudest patrol ever

Clickbait Again..Loved the Steven Seagal reference 😅

Wow......that was a big nothing burger with cheese.

Yo, this is really good. Need to watch.

The only thing that appears to be accurate about this ‘film’, is its title. In indeed looks to be an entire Land of Bad.

Having worked with Mq9's for 11+ years I almost had to walkout of this movie! Some bullshit!

I was not in special forces, but trained with some of them, and this is so wrong. Something tells me the writer and director has no knowledge of real life SOPs.

Direct to streaming right

I'm watching this movie because of William Eubank He did a great job with UNDERWATER

I read these comments and I am a little hesitant to say I liked it. It's a movie. However, I do think the movies where the CIA or the FBI are good guys are coming to an end. Even Bond.

Are HALO jumps done from helicopters??

real ops don't talk at all beyond the mark

Such bad men! Killers without a clue.

six pack and a pizza movie sort of an update of bat 21 ( or any of the rescue mission movies )

FFS you would think they would get someone who would advise them to not wear their PCs so high

chatter chatter chatter - amazing they talk so much

Can a helicopter get high enough for a HALO jump? They were in a helicopter it sounded like.

dudes do not walk around saying they are tier 1 or tier 2.... and the tier system has been dead for years! lol

This would've made a great movie start for a Predator remake.

Bollywood is ready to receive an Indian Oscar out of this original movie.

Oh well Road houae is out for feee

It amazing how Hollywood has no clue about military and military spec ops. Treating the guy as a boot. Hollywood im assuming does not no but before deployment the team has trained together for so long they can tell if someone has to fart. Even in regular military they train together. When boots replace a fallen they are trained up fast and they do not run ops.

Who even writes for these scripts?!

Did they just Halo jump out of a helicopter? Why is that guy special forces but they still felt the need to tell him not to fuck up? Why are they explaining the plan on the way? Wow
