Open Fire & who's coming ... home
21 July 2023
No pun intended - and this movie amongst the other movies I binged while simultaneously rating and reviewing them ... well made me think: if they made movies like this 20 years ago ... shouldn't it be even easier to make them now? But I reckon there is not much need for that ... I guess it is like with tik tok - people want to get straight to the point .. or come to it. I mean I had to ... at least once, you know the drill ... that too.

The disc did not have any audio commentary so I had to manually skip the scenes that did not involve story. Which is ok of course - production values are not that bad to be honest. The movie could have had a bit more substance though. And maybe a bit more humor. Or maybe I am spoiled from watching Operation Desert Stormy. It can not reach any of those heights ... unfortunately. There is one shootout scene (is that what it is called in war movies?) towards the end, that is quite nice ... and yes I assume all the scenes you came ... here to watch are fine too. Of course nowadays you can find scenes like that on the internet ... even when not looking for them ... which answers my previous question even more emphatically I assume. Dedicated to the soldiers ... of course it is! Rising up to the occasion and all that. Have not seen the first one (if there is one) of this either by the way.
