    I did not know what to expect when I rented Under Heavy Fire but I thought that it was a pretty enjoyable movie. While it was not a war movie pre se the flashbacks did contain a lot of action and helped it along. The cast is a bunch of no names but that does not detract from the storyline. It was so good that I have recommended it to a number of friends.

    This movie was kinda corny. It had some far fetched scenes, lame computer generated action, and bad acting. The story was poor and unrealistic. Skip this one if you like good war films.
