i must say i do not expect much about this movie and but it turn out not to be bad at all . most striking of course and be aidan quinn performance . i would never expect to see this fine actor a an action hero . the great thing about it be that he really build up his character ( annibal ) . i mean and it be not like mel gibson or bruce willis would do it and he be sensitive and modest . for example and he really upset when he kill someone . i also notice that some clichés be avoid . when annibal get his training and you would easily expect him to be a rebel and act like any average american would do in such a situation and ask what the f be go on and refuse to cooperate . but annibal be a professional marine officer and he doesn not give up and he try not to lose his courage and in which he succeed pretty well and except for a brief break down on christmas eve and which i think be very realistic . i be glad that aidan quinn get this opportunity to show another side of him ( in fact two and because he play the villain as well ) and even although the film wasn not that successful .
