I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Memorable, crazy movie

Fantastic!

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

What a stunning film. Coming from a military and have gone thru Ranger training I found this to be the most realistic protral of REAL human being going thru adverse training conditions Ur reviewers most of this including IMDB HAve never attended any real solidiers have missed the whole point. u want to see real soldier not Rambo or supermen watch this movie

Movies that are this bad, unintentionally, are a joke. The notion that this guy is 'one of the best trainees ever to pass the tests' after he's freaked out in isolation, balked at jumping out of an airplane - he's an abject failure and categorical candidate for dismissal. He removes his helmet in a combat zone to hold a dying friend in his arms. He's an emotional train wreck.Acting is poor and the storyline disjunct, predictable bizarre nonsense. Insanely mediocre heavily ADR'd fight scenes. The SAS likely is ashamedThe 'love story' angle is insanely stupid and a cliché which producers likely thought would add a bizarre nuance to this steaming mound. The ending happens with zero denouement or conclusion. Time is money. Don't waste yours.

Well what more can I say about this movie that hasn't been said in other reviews already. I have not read Ronnie Thompsoms book so I don't know how this compares to the original story. What I can tell you is that this low budget movie was dreadful.Im not really sure where to start. There clearly wasn't enough research done on the SAS for starters. Considering this movie was predominantly about the SAS selection process, the scenes shot for the first three quarters of the film were unrealistic.The training teams behaviour attitude and professionalism was laughable and unbelievable. The hills phase was not portrayed well, and neither was the Escape and Evasion. The Jungle Phase, missed out completely and the jumps phase.....please!The acting, although OK wasn't the best, I've seen. as previously mentioned by others a little more time with an acting coach might have made the Bosnian terrorists a bit more believable.Ultimately I guess the actors were just trying to make the best of the awful script. The characters felt hollow and unfinished and I never really connected with any of them. By the end of the film I didn't really care if Mickey, the lead character made it through or notKit and equipment used was either wrong or being used incorrectly and the weapon handling throughout, in particular the last 20 minutes of the film was, to be frank....embarrassing. The final assault would probably in reality left the entire team dead and a dirty bomb on the streets of London. This movie did absolutely nothing to show the true professionalism of the most elite soldiers in the world. In the days of low budget movies, there is no excuse for turning out rubbish like this, particularly when you look at other British made low budget military movies recently made. Where I am Soldier gets everything wrong, the recent movie - Kajaki hits the nail on the head throughout. Don't waste your time watching this, its time you'll never get back, Go watch Kajaki instead and see how movies like this 'should' be made

What an opportunity these guys had to make a gritty realistic glimpse into what our lads go through during the Selection process .... The writers and director let them down as well as the producers. I bought this film on DVD and I feel hard done by wasting £7 ....so god knows what the Producers who paid for this crap movie must feel like Seriously though why didn't they think of employing an Ex SAS guy to train and overlook as an advisory? - it's so amateurish it's laughable, especially the last scene. Finally there wasn't even a decent story - no empathy for the characters who frankly are badly cast. Director and writers should be ashamed at their half hearted effort
