    Team America, but with human actors, no?

    From the jiggly jeep guy as he's being shot to the MERICA, FUKK YEAH!! music you could nearly hear at the end.

    The Lynn Jacobs character (Director of the SS) was pretty much written in as a dumb narrator to explain exactly what was goin on and why it was going on while it was goin on. There were even cutback shots to tell the audience that this-is-the-emotion-to-experience-now, including her at one point going 'YUSS" along with a fist pump. :rolleyes:

    Funny how all the characters were so worried about the president's son then everyone just forgot about him entirely 'till the tragic moment when
    the son jumps out of the back of the ambulance that he's been left in for hours to greet his dad!
    OH! And the slight pause every time the son was mentioned... gah!

    ...and slightly unfortunate/weird timing with the current situation between those countries!

    It is what it's.

    But besides all that, I really enjoyed it. Non stop action pretty much. Best thing was it was free :)

    Free? Yes.
    Good? No

    I rarely would comment on a film - I like a good bit of action, but this was possibly the poorest, most unbelievable film I have seen in a decade. So much so that I kept finding myself noticing the anomalies in the story more than "watching" the movie. A very rare experience.

    My 16 year old son loved it! Lots of gore and violence. 'Nuff said!
