And pretty low quality airsoft with no rear sights, at that (the title character is the only one with a rear sight, yet he's given a 10" barreled MK18/CQBR type weapon that's only used by Special Operations Forces like SEALs and Delta Force). My DBoys M4/M203 that I bought for $60 as a backyard gun is more convincing. Most of the Soldiers in the opening aren't wearing anything that even remotely resembles body armor (one guy has a cheap, COTS load-bearing vest but that's it), the UCP-like pattern on their BDUs (yes, BDUs, not the currently-issued ACUs) is one of the worst knock-offs I've ever seen, and none of them even bother aiming when they're supposed to be shooting. And UH-1 Huey gunships in Afghanistan? I don't think Hueys armed in that fashion have been used since Vietnam.<br /><br />Overall, it's the usual Sy-Fy Saturday garbage. This channel hasn't had a good "original" movie since Code Red: The Rubicon Conspiracy. On the upside, I will give it credit for a plot that's interesting and based on something that's actually been reported in the field. I feel the film could have been much better if it had a higher budget for better props and actual blank-adapted movie guns, or at least some higher-end Classic Army airsoft replicas.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7806308685025126253.post-11518819474879188402012-08-31T13:35:49.112-07:002012-08-31T13:35:49.112-07:00LolwutLolwutAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
