http://www.hkpro.com/forum/hk-cinema/153460-act-valor.htmlJust wondering what people have noticed....
And Mexican spec operators who were helping the Team at the endIt looked like all MP5s were in the hands of the bad guys. And they all got waxed.
I thought it made it feel "call of dutyish" that and the 1st POV shooting took me out a bit. I can deal with the bad acting, these are elite door kickers, not elite hollywood hippy fundraisers...I did like it overall though. I know my boy will love it so I'll pick it up.The computer effects showing the maps and where they were heading was a little too corny looking. Made me think I was watching a NatGeo or History Chan documentary. It kept taking me out of the mood of the movie.
Acting was adequate. Not enough HKs in the hands of the good guys. The assault on the shack could have been handled a lot better with MP5SDs but they were using some M4s or something like that. Saw the move last February so I'm just working from distant memory now.
I just watched it a few days ago and I feel the same way. I think the call of duty feel was intentional to make it seem...I dont know? But Im certain it felt like that for a reason.I thought it made it feel "call of dutyish" that and the 1st POV shooting took me out a bit.

agreed...however the movie's budget and certain 'Government Limitations' meant they had to go go with more easily acquired hardware...I imagine the 416 wasn't in use by Naval Special Warfare when the concept was started and shooting began...Mouse McCoy started the project almost 4 years ago shortly following "Dust To Glory" (also an AWESOME documentary by him) and the Colt M4 was still in service then I believe....The computer effects showing the maps and where they were heading was a little too corny looking.
