Behind
Enemy Lines Movie Review:
Owen
Wilson stars as Lieutenant Chris Burnett, a top naval aviator
who is shot down over war torn Bosnia in the action drama
Behind Enemy Lines.
While
on a reconnaissance mission, Owen photographs something
horrible that was meant to be hidden from the west. When
the crazy Bosnian general finds out about it, he orders
his troops to take down the F/A-18 Superhornet, hunt down
the pilots and kill them.
After
witnessing the murder of his pilot by the Generals
men, Owen must find a way to survive a hostile foreign land
where enemy troops, secret police
and a hitman are trying very hard to find and exterminate
him.
His
only hope is to outsmart them and buy him enough time for
Admiral Reigart (Gene Hackman) to rescue him. Unbeknownst
to Owen is that the Admiral is ordered not to attempt a
rescue because it might endanger the fragile peace in the
area.
Will
the Admiral disobey orders to save the life of one of his
men trapped behind enemy lines? If youve seen the
trailer then you wont have a difficult time
figuring it out.
This
film if full of good action mixed with enough tension and
suspense to please most action fans. The story doesnt
hold out strongly throughout but still
delivers adequately to keep you interested.
Director
John Moore uses a variety of visual effects to give you
exciting thrills when things start to stop making sense.
Even
though Behind Enemy Lines has many scenes that are just
not believable, the action should keep most of you happy
and entertained.
