Phonearl Good start, but then it gets ruined

Baseshment I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

Curapedi I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

Guillelmina The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

JaydoDre Not sure what to think of this one.The first half is a dreamy war movie. A man is recruited as a mercenary for a rescue job in Afghanistan. He is broke and has post war nightmares but agrees to put his team back together.The second half of the movie is where things get weird. In Afghanistan the team eventually encounters paranormal dangers...and that is where the movie turns sour.The camera work is not great, but it is OK. Some shots linger for longer than needed and some angles are questionable. However the desert where the film was shot is pretty and the Middle-Eastern feeling carries over nicely.But the transition between shots starts making less and less sense towards the 2nd half; the story starts making less and less sense; the dialogue and character's actions start making less and less sense until the movie turns into an episode of a sci-fi channel show.The acting is not bad but it becomes increasingly badly directed and written so everyone starts either over-acting or under-acting.I think the viewers have been indoctrinated a little and expect a fast-paced logical and sensible movie with a particular structure and genre, while this movie is a bit different from that norm. This is the kind of movie you experience alone late at night in a state of partial trance, and after it is over you ask yourself what the hell you just experienced. The movie actually kept my interest until the end.On the other hand the film does ultimately fail at what it tries to be. It starts out as a slow-cooker war movie but it goes down hill from there until it becomes a z-movie thriller.

capnwilly Super cheesy movie. Bad acting and some real bad effects.I almost turned it off after the early scene where the bikers were driving down the road and it looked like their first time riding bikes....lolUnfortunately i was able to determine that it was partially made in Canada early on with the bad acting and bad camera work.....and i can say this because i am Canadian.. hahaI wouldn't pay money to watch it. Good thing it was on net flicks.As for the dude that worked on this movie who commented earlier...you kinda shot yourself in the foot cause anyone reading the reviews will realize that you are only hyping the movie because you had a hand in making this abomination...lol

Alex Rice Short and simple review without spoilers. Afghan Knights.Starts off with an interesting storyline, 4 soldiers being payed to collect someone from Afgan and bring him back. They have a little back story, although no emotion is there for the characters. Suddenly, they arrive in Afghan and it takes a little while to realise it's not a flashback, as there have already been several by this point.2nd half, I quickly lost interest and the storyline becomes a mess.5/10 for this film. You get what you pay for.If low budget supernatural/action films is your thing, you will enjoy this film. Give it a watch on a Sunday when there is nothing on TV.

schmoe1 It is definitely a lot better than a lot of movies you see on HBO and DVD, I think it was interesting and the music score was great. The actors were good for the most part, the military advising on the one firefight was awesome and very real to life (the one on the Pakistan border) The director did a good job, although the first 15 minutes were a bit convoluted, but it all came together after that. i saw a comment about the motorcycle stunts in the beginning not being very fast, but that was a pretty steep bank they came down. I would recommend renting for a night of entertainment, all in all, good compared to what is out there. the countryside where the film was shot was beautiful and the set seemed to be very detailed. UPDATETo address the post of another user, yes, I was involved in the film, yes, I did the technical military/SEAL advising and yes, the firefight at the Pakistani border was choreographed by myself, and yes, it was a textbook frontal assault, quick and to the point. Yes, it was a very well choreographed firefight, done with the help of a real former Navy SEAL with combat experience. The firefight in the beginning of the movie was not choreographed by me, it was not how i would have done it as it is strategically wrong (but then, so is much in Hollywood as far as gun battles) Two: I did give it a rating of 10 stars, because i felt that some people were being a little overboard on giving it one star. I thought it would help balance it out, you have to realize, this movie was not an 80 million dollar movie, but a 2 million dollar movie made to go straight to DVD. For what it was intended, it is a good movie. What one thinks of a movie is their opinion, and they are entitled to that opinion, just as i am entitled to my own opinion. Third: the comments posted prior to the release date were in violation of IMDb terms. Someone posting about a movie not yet released has obviously obtained a copy illegally, so there was a valid reason those posts were removed.To address Tullys statement, i looked at some of your reviews, it seems you hate almost every movie you review. Do not come on the board and make false (far out accusations) that is uncalled for. I posted before release date because i saw the pre screening, only a handful of people did. Anyone else posting a review before the movie was released, there is no way they got the movie legally. There were a bunch of bit torrent downloads that occurred however. IMDb took the postings down before the release date because they agreed that it was not according to their TOS.Any other questions, i will be glad to answer.
