A Disappointing Continuation

Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.

While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

I always seen special forces like the elite, but after seeing season 1-3 I honestly think this either shows SAS in a very bad way, or that SAS is seriously nothing more than a bunch of bullies. In various episodes, they shot random civilians, in their own countries, even people who has nothing to do with the trouble, hell, even in third season someone surrenders, drop their weapon and raises their hand, they just shoot them. Not to mention the CONSTANT 'Rules? Naaaa' attitude. I REALLY liked the series, and really enjoyed the action, good variation in episodes, based on somewhat limited story and enough action to keep a high paste. But as far as this idealization that SAS is the worlds best, I hope this is as fictional and far away from the real SAS as possible, if not, I feel pity for them.

ultimate force being about the SAS (special air service) follows the red troop regiment in different stories each episode or a story continued. Starring Ross Kemp who plays the role of Sgt Henry Garvie extremely well the 4 series are explicitly violent (as you would expect them to be) and are very well depicted with none of the explosion every second crap you find in Schwarzenegger blockbusters.All the weaponry are exact with no 'space age' laser gun nonsense. I feel ultimate force is one of the best TV series ever made and the cast and crew should come back together to make a few more series since I have seen just about every episode.Thanks for reading and,Who dares wins.

Just started watching Ultimate force on Hulu.com.... What a great show, as others have commented its not a show for the squeamish, or that are not into violence. If you haven't watched the show read no further... I have mentioned show characters and some of the story line......however, I'm shocked beyond belief that Jamie Draven was written out of the show... He was one the main character in the show... loosing this figure in the show simply killed the series for me.....Sorry Ross Kemp but your just too much like Micheal Chiklis, and your character, although played out OK just wasn't up to the job.I have at least one mate that was in the SAS and from what I can remember only a portion of what was written on the show is any where near close to real SAS life.Cheers "who dares wins"

We need a series like this. It does exactly what is says on the tin. Most of the situations are unbelievable but what do you expect from a show about the SAS? The production values are OK and the action is exciting without being silly (compared to made for TV American action movies). There are some stock characters but the script isn't laughable and the actors seem to care about what they are doing. As the new team member Jamie Draven portrays the right amount of innocence and brings a sense of duty to his role; his interactions with the rest of the cast are well thought out; you can see some chemistry between him and Alex Reid and I hope this is fleshed out in the next series. Although billed as such I never found Ross Kemp to be the star of the show and at times we aren't even supposed to like him; I am glad character is written this way and that his obvious mental scars dictate the person he is. This is in stark contrast to badly written imported shows where we are expected to believe that hardened battle veterans who are emotionally scarred and have shattered private lives are really nice guys who never do any thing wrong.Some episodes are better than others; I actually thought the first episode was fairly weak but the second with the pressure group sniper story was excellent and allowed us to see flashes of how good the series could be.I only got to see the first episode of the second series which took place on board a ship; the standout fight scene being that in the belly of the ship between Jamie Draven and the legionnaire, it was a tough no nonsense scrap and as exciting as the fight in the Bourne Identity. Looking forward to the DVD.
