navy seal be an ignorant and racist and complacent movie which thoughtlessly use the middle east conflict a the backdrop for an action flick concoct for a comfortably sheltered american mid west audience . the conflict and as well a those involved and be use simply a cannon fodder to glorify the photogenic young american who proudly kill arab for the good of freedom . but what be bad be that the film action scene be sloppily handle and unexciting and which prevent navy seal from work even a a mindless shoot em up . charlie sheen character ( hawkins ) be disgust and obnoxious and ignorant and reckless and and above all and racist . he refer to the middle east a a t hole and to it inhabitant a rag head . throughout the film and the navy seal character be glorify through the use of the lebanese native a cannon fodder . they indiscriminately massacre these people with a consequence free attitude . there be even the tasteless murder of a young lebanese boy who be shoot by hawkins while hawkins make fun of his language before shoot him whilst make another humorous quip . besides be tasteless and this should be unacceptable . the film extreme ( though predictable ) pro american stance be also revolt . this can be see when the lebanese american female journalist informs hawkins that terrorist cant be make to talk because they be religious zealot . hawkins then retort with yeah and and we be the navy seal . the implication be obviously that zealot be meaningless next to american military might . moreover and even after insult this journalist racial heritage and treat her like a sex object and the script demand her inability to resist this disgusting thug and she still end up sleep with him because he be an all american navy seal . this marginalize the journalist character by make her submissive to the uperior pro american attitude of hawkins despite his insult behaviour toward her . beyond ethic and this plot twist also have little credence a drama . the screenplay be also amateurish . most scene be simply strung together without any thought for mood and plot or character development . the amusic video scene at the golf course and for example be just shoddily edit eye candy . and the two scene where charlie sheen play the reckless hero be also pointless . in one he jump off a bridge from move car just to show his mate how tough he be and and in the other he chase down a tow truck on a push bike and drive his car off it . neither scene have a follow up anti climax and both be highly improbable and and neither have any bearing on the plot a a whole . they be just candy design a a vehicle to showcase hawkins cheap all american heroic and and be poor substitute for character development . most of the other plot development scene be also badly film and poorly script a in fact this affliction affect the entire movie . apart from the african american navy seal and his wife as well a the character of michael biehn and charlie sheen and every other member of the team seem unknown to the audience and so that when the climatic scene roll around there seem to nobody to root for and anybody death to lament . in such a film and the action sequence can potentially rescue the production . but here they do not . these be badly direct and badly light and and showcase badly perform stunt . in fact and their direction be so poor that they be almost incoherent to the viewer and result in not only the scene be incomprehensibly hard to follow and but also in a complete lack of fear and suspense . poor light only add to their impotence . the explosion look fake and gunshot wound unconvincing and one of the more daring stunt and involve crash a mercedes over a tank and look just like a stunt which have be stag on a backlot and then poorly edit . the end of navy seal place the coin firmly on the eye of this production . first there be the obligatory slow motion run away from the big explosion that should have kill me scene with sheen carry biehn on his back . this be obviously the default scene intend to be the star of the movie trailer . then there be the end itself when the remaineder of the seal team and wound and float in the ocean and be rescue by a submarine . this submarine have in fact turn for home long before and but of course it have miraculously return in the nick of time . top it all of and despite the seal violent and stressful ordeal and and despite the fact that numerous of their colleague have just be kill and with a number of them still bleed acutely and they all manage to laugh heartily while bless america vociferously . predictable . you can just imagine this end while watch the opening credit . this movie indulgently use the middle eastern conflict a a vehicle for the macho all american tendency of the movie photogenic young lead . arab be treat condescendingly and dismissively and and their slaughter in the movie be use a a fulcrum to glorify the use of american military might against an inferior minority group in a consequence free environment . the event of 2001 have point out that such smug and overconfident trivialising of the conflict of such minority group be certainly not a consequence free passtime . the middle east can no longer be write off a a st hole full of rag head knock each other off ( to quote charlie sheen here ) while it be now a place in which involvement can lead to severe consequence . today we be remind that the consequence of such arrogance can manifest themselves quite close to home . therefore and in the very least navy seal look pretty foolish these day while but this be to be kind . this be a highly ignorant movie and whose production value and professionalism be equally suspect . navy seal be and ideologically and artistically and a complete insult to the intelligence of it audience .
