Don't listen to the critics on this one!

Most of the reviews out there by the professional critic community will tab this as "lacking character development" or "mere propaganda for the military". The reality is that this is a chance to see actual special op hardware and procedures mixed in with an admittedly generic terrorist plot. At the end of the movie, if you don't have an appreciation for the SEAL (or all volunteer military personnel for that matter) dedication and removal from everyday comforts that we enjoy, then yes, you're not going to understand the appeal of the movie. I got to see a screening of this last September at the studio that made the movie (Bandito) and have been talking about it for months. Enjoying it in a DBOX seat gave it an extra element -- at the very least, if you hate the movie, make a matching donation of your tickets/concessions to a military foundation.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
