Act of Valor(2012)

2.5/5

it has been some time since i saw this genre of cinema, the ones where the good guys are so perfect that they may shame God and the bad guys are devil incarnate. But then that is to be expected if one is seeing a movie about the protectors of the freedom and guardians against terror. so here we have some real life navy SEALs acting in the movie which is supposedly based on "real" incidents which predictably involve some Al Qaeda and old school Russian rogues. the story and characters are as clichéd as they get. where the movie scores is in its intense action scenes which are shot beautifully and are as real as they come. the death count is phenomenally high for the bad guys while the SEALs are predictably bullet proof. could have been much better but then in hindsight could have been much worse also. catch it on cable TV.
