1st watched 5/20/2001 - 3 out of 10(Dir-Robert Radler): Ridiculous plot and very mixed-up editing make this movie unable to believe. It is about a special elite group called the "wolverines" within an army training camp that are basically racist biggots and trained to be this way with only one purpose, to blot out anyone who is not like themselves. Treat Williams tries to make the best of his role as an ex-mercenary who becomes a substitute teacher undercover at this boot camp to investigation the reports. Like it or not with this movie he has entered the B-movie scene(hopefully he will get better roles than this in his future). An attempt is made for his character to start a relationship between him and a woman officer, but we find out that she's being everybody's girl(even the evil leader of this so-called training camp). The biggest editing mistake is made after Williams's character is attempted to be killed after an intense battle with members of the "wolverines" and the very next scene he's acting like nothing happened as he tries to get a date with the previous mentioned woman. I could go on, but I won't. I only want to plea to movie-maker's to stop making sequels to make money and instead think up new ideas, ok.
