Storyline : A gung-ho (yet recently disillusioned) pilot is shot down in
war-torn former Yugoslavia, after photographing illegal mass graves. He then
spends the rest of the film running away a lot, while his paternal-yet-gruff
commanding officer yells at his superiors and yaks into his radio, trying to
save the lad. Badly shot and edited, this throwback to '80s jingoistic pap
offers few thrills and doesn't even make an attempt at characterization. Even
with shoot-outs, jet plane action and cat-and-mouse soldiering, this isn't
nearly as much fun as it could have been. Wilson looks lost throughout, and
the majority of the film is sorta dull and cartoonish, with an egregiously
idiotic climax that wouldn't convince the slowest five year old. {full_page}
