In case any of you where itching to see Acts Of Valor... don't. It is painfully terrible. Yes, it features actual Navy Seals. Yes, they are heroes who do a hard job. They are also terrible actors. The film is full of annoying cliches (both spoken as in "a bundle of sticks is stronger then a single twig, Braaahhh!) and plot wise (a soldier is going to be a dad, but he has to go out with his bros on this mission, it's his duty brah!) that will drive you crazy. The action bits when they are actually doing missions are okay and typically well done but very heavy on first person POV and again, every cliche in the book. Like the shell shocked slow motion bit that Saving Private Ryan made so popular is used twice within five minutes of each other. The best I can say about this movie is that it's like watching someone play Call Of Duty, only with a crappier story, worse acting and terrible cut scenes you can't skip. I give it one out of five. It's the first film I've been too that I can remember where it couldn't end fast enough.
And remember, I typically LIKE shit movies.
My friend Dave came to the screening, he hates dramas and loves action and LOVES Call Of Duty games, he thought it sucked too.
Save your money, steal or Netflix it.
Especially since the Navy Seal actors didn't get paid to appear, it's official propaganda made to get people to join the military after the Seals killed Bin Laden last year. Or so I've heard. I could be wrong.
Or maybe I'm too Canadian to appreciate the glory before me...

I'm also eager to see the long-awaited La Separation.
