What a waste of time

After seeing all the good reviews on this movie I was expecting something really great. But it ended all too bad in the end. The movie is just too "stupid" . Some minor spoilers ahead , be warned! Why would ever a special commando unit go to a window when there are shots fired? Why would a specially trained commando unit go and cry on his dead friend to wake up and leave the suspect unguarded? Why would a spec ops leave his gun on the floor if he is surrounded by enemies ?
And so many other questions came to my mind during watching this. It was like every scene had something badly done. In one scene enemies open a door on one floor while the whole building is filled with wooden walls , injured spec ops screams like little kid from pain , but heck the enemy is def and cannot hear him screaming so they start to search (while being few meters from the screaming guy).Few minutes after he screams painfully again but the movie shows that the whole floor hears it.Why are there so many unbelievable stupid moments in this movie ?
I understand its an action movie , but it should have at least some real elements to be believable. To me this was like a "commando from the playground" . The plot is nonexistent and the whole movie is filled with fighting scenes so unnatural and unbelievable that I wonder what the other reviewers actually saw !? Some ppl might complain that Expendables is the same , yes in unbelievable action moments , true , but it has some kind of humor and the whole is more like a comedy .While this movies tries to be dead serious. The only thing laughable ,is the sea of cliché and silly moments. The special effects are so unreal as well. If you shoot someone in the eye with a sniper rifle , the body will fly away and decimating the head.In this movie the victim just stands still , leans forward then drops on floor like he was shot with a freaking paint-ball gun. Awful , and wish I had never seen this garbage.

I saw the ratings on IMDb for this movie which was 7.8, and I was really expecting a great movie since 7.8 is a pretty high rating. However, things turn out a little weird since the beginning of the movie. A SWAT squad just goes out for an unofficial mission to wipe out a whole building that has a reputation of being a killing floor? WTF??!? and everyone in the squad is equipped with a M16/M4 for an in-door mission? Does the director even know what SWAT stands for? The plot is so terrible that I can go watch a porn and say it had a good plot.
The action was a little entertaining at the start of the movie, but it gets boring every minute as the movie goes on. How the gangsters fight with the main character is just ridiculous. Did they all go to the same gym to learn how to fight? This is just a Ong-Bak rip off with the worst story ever.
This movie is one of those 'one-dimensional films'. Devastating plot, too much fight scenes, worst directing. I wanted to give a 0 but 1 was the lowest rating.

To begin with, I can't believe those high rating and reviews, specially that one who wrote the best action film he's ever seen (clearly he has not seen anything). This movie has a lot of problems, specially when they make a retard special force team, i get that the story was that they get wiped out, but they looked so terrible, dying in every stupid way. I have seen plenty of military tactic movies, if you think that was good, i feel sorry for you. Also about the fighting style,
I learned that was Indonesian Pencak Silat, but it was rather slow and predictable moves, nothing like old school Hong Kong martial art movies that comes with a variable of fighting style. One of the final scene when they face Mad Dog, he was UNKILLABLE, at one point I got bored and can't believe all the critical hit he took and he kept going, the fight got too long and lost its sense, it should have ended at one point when he got a tube stuck to his jugular, I mean, come on! Losing blood like that and he kept fighting like nothing?
I normally don't write a review but I had to here because I can't believe all those people with the high rating.. I watched all the old school martial art movies, specially 70,80,90's Hong Kong Kung fu movies and all the other military tactical films, this one just gave me a face-palm.
OVERrated in all aspects... If you are looking for INDONESIAN VIOLATED ACTION or COMPUTER GAMEISH MOVIES, then this is your flick. The rest of this production is below every level, story is really the poorest ever, and all the performances are below any level. It's a shame that so many people rated this movie far beyond reasonable figures. The script is so thin and predictable. No other actor with Hollywood fame could have bring this production to a higher level. I love you all no matter you all gonna hate me because of my review. Another proof that ratings are very personally and sometimes dubious. But real movie fans are gonna watch all they meet on their path of moving images and are reading all reviews, starting with the lowest rated comments...

As I only suffered through the first 45 minutes of this film, it's not really fair for me to write a review. But I just wanted to warn others out there who may be like me - people who have a medium tolerance for violence - that this is one of the most horrifically violent movies I've ever seen the first 45 minutes of. I have walked out of 3 movies in my life. This is the 3rd.
If you love non-stop action, little dialog and a plot that does not really matter, this movie is for you. If you need a plot to justify the violence, this is NOT a movie for you.
I heard from my friends who stuck it out that I missed 2 pretty awesome martial arts sequences, and I was disappointed about that. But the constant (and I do mean constant - balls to the wall- one killing spree to the next with virtually no interlude) explicit and no holds barred violence was too much for this viewer.
Please don't rent this movie.
Save yourself a BIG disappointment.
I rented this movie because it has so many high ratings.
I don't know why everyone else rates this so high.
The first part of the movie is very good and interesting, but that is just the first 15/20 minutes.
The rest of the movie is just a very BAD joke. Exaggerated and with bad actors.
It's the same old bad movie, where the "bad guy" just won't die!
Please rent any other movie, besides this bad comedy.

Leon, Golden eye, Matrix, Kill Bill..those was great action movies. This one is a real waste of time. No plot. No dialogs. Only unrealistic - power rangers stile - karate scenes. **No real spoilers there since there is no plot but just to be sure..** A SWAT team (which is totally unprofessional ,feels nothing about tactics, have no radio communication, NO equipment (flash grenades ,night vision,shields etc) but they seem every last one of them is karate specialist and can handle pretty well an axe and a sword) enters a building (unknown reason) which is full of thugs (about 200 people , every one of them it seems to be a karate specialist or something and every one is more than happy to kill himshelf attacking a swat team with a knife or a sword ) and then a masicure comes. 30 minutes of gunfight (every thug in the building has his own assault rifle ) and for the next one hour no one seems to has firepower (not even the police) and uses his fighting skills and axes and knifes and swords to fight. That's all. Nothing more in this move.

From the outset, characters talk in their local tongue, followed by English subtitles at the bottom of the screen. these disappear so fast that I struggled to keep up with conversations at some points.Admittedly there was around 15 minutes of total speech, but the conversations were so boring that you got tired of it after a few seconds!The fighting skills were superb admittedly, however there is such a thing as too much of a good thing! At one stage you see 2 main characters fighting mad dog. At a rough guess they should've broken his legs, arms and several other limbs around 20 times... each! But he kept getting back up. This was a little too much for me.
I couldn't help but think they put a plot in after finding a lot of martial artists wanting to make a movie about beating each other several shades of blue.Overall very disappointed, don't waste your money unless you like movies such as the house of flying daggers. See Battleship instead, better action and a better plot!
One of the worst movie I have ever seen. Please don't rely on IMDb rating for this movie.I guess the makers of this movie has spent huge money on making false positive review to increase the rating.Wasted 2 hours in my life.Story line is pathetic. The wrong people shooting police in the public and still no one questions them, Isn't this impractical. This movie is thus another kids play, but the makers call it "Best Action movie" , What a good joke. This movie is another junk in the name of action movie.My personal advice is not to waste your time, Instead watching this movie you can jut relax back at home.Don't get cheated by looking at the IMDb's high rating for this movie.
