yes, it is a great action movie within 6 months.
act of valor is about the warrior ethos: military culture and the war on terror. one of the most believing military movies i have ever seen. what hollywood is missing in so many modern action movies is ethos the moral element that determines a character's action rather than his or her thought or emotion. if you are looking for cliché bravado like "i'll be back", you won't find it in this movie". instead what you will find are believable down to earth characters driven by real navy seal who make decisions based on ethos rather than fake hollywood "a" listers pretending to be soldiers. snipers do stretch pantyhose over the scope of their lens to reduce sunlight glare that would give thei
much better than the trailer looks
this movie is nothing but a 110 minute 'join the army' commercial. brain-washing propaganda at it's best! i like action movies, but act of valor is a complete mess on every level: wooden acting (so bad it provoked several unintentional laugh-out loud moments), awful dialogue, zero intrigue or suspense, poorly edited action sequences, and completely technically inaccurate (just look at the scene when one of the seals takes close up reconnaissance photos of a desert airfield from 500 meters away with a clearly identifiable canon 20d with 18-200mm lens zoomed out to 18mm, and what appear to be a piece of panty hose held over the lens by an elastic as 'camouflage'! just how dumb do the filmma
great movie
this is definitely a guy movie. if you like video games and generally like having stuff blown up then you might enjoy it.
excellent movie! great action. i am more of a chick flick kinda movie person, but when i saw the trailer for this one, i knew i had to see it! it did not disappoint!
felt like i was watching a first person shooter video game. this movie proves that acting is hard and not everyone can be good at it.
when i go home, my buds they will say! how'd ya earn your living? how'd ya earn your pay? i reply in a very loud tone, i earn my living in the surf zone. hey babalooba seal team navy i joined up for this now, people think i'm crazy hey babalooba seal team navy! i came here to be one frogman stud now all i'm doin is droppin in the mud great movie, some of the best acting i have ever seen. will line up to buy this on blu-ray. if you like action movies you will not be disappointed.
true life stories with real life seals is the real deal, we dont need hollywood crap here, nor mission impossible nor ghost rider come to the heels of this movie, wow
