i use to hate uwe boll . like really despise . his film be some of the bad i have ever pay to see with bloodrayne and alone in the dark and house of the dead couldn not even have all their score combine to get a full star out of this reviewer . a a person and uwe boll also repulse me . in 2006 he challenge critic of his film to put up or shut up and get into the box ring with him to defend their critique . but then and i have a revelation . why be it that i adore the offering of one roger corman all these year when his film and boll be very similar in their result . both filmmaker do their best with limited budget and produce film that be so laughable that you can not help but look beyond the production value to find the entertainment in their product . in short and corman and boll both produce film that be un watchable alone and but when enjoy with friend and while have beer and yell mystery science theatre type comment at the screen and they can be fairly amuse . tunnel rat fit right into his resume along with postal and in the name of the king . tunnel rat be set during the vietnam war and put a bunch of expendable u soldier in a position where they have to hunt the viet cong by explore and hunt them in the various underground tunnel they have build under the forest battlefield . the tunnel be tight and dark and which do give a sense of claustrophobia and but doesn not give you a lot to look at on the screen . the lighting be so dense with nothing more than a flashlight to illuminate a scene that you find yourself strain at the screen . let face it and uwe boll film can give anyone a headache without have to squint for 90 minute . so the film be pretty straight forward . one by one they go into the tunnel when the one that go in prior do not come back out . and one by one they all face various death thanks to the assorted weapon at the hand of the viet cong which include knife and gun and a sharpened bamboo poll . unlike most other uwe boll film and tunnel rat try too hard to develop character amongst the actor in the platoon . countless ( endless . ) minute be spend learn about their background and their hope and ambition if they survive the craziness of the war . unfortunately and character building be not boll strongpoint . not that i know what his strongpoint be and but just have a group of soldier sit around and jibber jabber about the thing we have hear in any and all other vietnam film produce since oliver stone platoon induce yawn that be large than the hole these soldier be climb down . there be some half descent violence . the bamboo stick through the neck be good and when the enemy circle in around the platoon in a wave of explosion and gunfire and there be some good dismemberment to keep you interested . but not enough . when it be over and if you watch it with others and i be sure that the comment uttered aloud during the screening will allow for some value . if you watch it alone and boll owes you 90 minute of your life back . or at least a chance to take a swing at him in the boxing ring . www . killerreviews . com .
