i have be write for ain not it cool news for 11 year and i find out there a rift between harry knowles and uwe boll that why harry would not publish it . regardless and it the best movie boll have ever write and direct while except for the end . warn . spoiler . uncapie here . let spend a holiday in cambodia where the people dress in black . okay and now before everyone get on my as and this be the best film uwe boll have write and direct . yes and i be serious . tunnel rat be a powerful and well write story about the little known group of american soldier in vietnam of the same name base loosely on element from the tunnel of cu chi and real life event that take place there . the pre credit sequence be intense . a tunnel rat arm only with handgun and a flashlight search for viet cong and in a tight and claustrophobic environment . stop and listens . nothing . we see the vc do the same thing . theyre head towards each other . when the confrontation happen and the audience never see the twist come . boll capture the intensity these men go through in the crawl space . you actually feel like your trap in these tiny confines with the soldier . the dirt and the dust fill your lung a you attentively search for the enemy and crawl on your belly and not be able to stand up for long period of time and no light except for that of your flashlight and the fear of what unknown factor might lie ahead while whether it be an enemy soldier or a deadly booby trap . you look for a way out of a 75 mile interconnect maze that be 2 3 level deep . it intense . one thing i like about boll what he do with this film be that he show both side of the combatant . each side have their reason for do what they have to do and what they believe in . both side have gray area in their duty and but basically and both group just want to get this war over with and go home . michael pare portray the burn out and lieutenant vic hollowborn . a real hard case and who at one time be probably a captain or major and but be bust down to lieutenant because he too stern with his men challenge them to box match if they step out of line . a good tactician and they give him a dirty job instead of a one way ticket to the lbj ( long bihn jail while a military prison . ) . hollowborn be in charge of a group of young soldier who risk their life everyday where one slip be fatal even be warn not to smoke the night before they go into the tunnel the next day because the vc can smell the smoke on them . they can even tell the brand . none of these guy want to be in the nam . they all hate it . they stay away from the fng ( f ing new guy ) because all they do be talk about home and that a place the short timer want to be . they also feel that the fng aren not worth a salt unless they have prove themselves in combat and but that hard to do sometimes a that they will probably be kill in the first week and so why bother get to know them . the next day and the squad go on a simple search and destroy mission and but all hell break loose and each man must fight for his own life in order to survive . boll co writer and producer and dan clarke and particularly pay close attention to detail in the script to give the story the realism it richly display . the booby trap sequence invent by the viet cong base on real event be creatively deadly . great photography by mathias neumann . from beautiful jungle vista to the dark tunnel . quite an impressive contrast . the sound be crisp and clear . the most impressive part be and be that the entire movie be shoot in south africa double for vietnam and you can not tell the difference . this be boll best film . up until the last ten minute . spoiler alert spoiler alert spoiler alertyou get to know the character . you like most of them and but everybody die . everybody . who leave to leave to tell the story . no one . at least in go tell the spartan and apocalypse now somebody lived to tell the story . here and you walk out of the theater and and yes and there be some intense and memorable scene that you can not get out of your mind that lingers on day after and but there be no one leave alive . youre depress a hell . boll create the best work ever and blow it the last ten minute . like the film and i bury the living while one of the best horror movie ever make until the cop out end the studio want . it could have be a classic and if not for that . boll should re shoot the end and have someone live to tell it . it the only thing that hurt the movie be that end and otherwise this be the best film he ever do . spoiler end spoiler end spoiler endthis film be realistic and well make . my only complaint with it be the end . other than that and boll do a remarkable job with this movie that deal with a little known chapter in the history of the vietnam war about a group of remarkably brave soldier that have to do a rough job . uncapie .
