Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe soft crash of the helicopter in the bin Laden compound was caused by what is called a vortex ring state. This happens when the air from the downwash of the propeller blades swirls up and cycles back down through the blades. In essence, the helicopter is descending through a downrush of air that cycles up back through the blades, which raises the pressure of the air passing over the top of the blades, thereby reducing lift. This was partly caused by the enclosing walls of the landing area that caused the air to hit the ground, be pushed towards the walls, then directed up the walls and sucked back into the blades. As the helicopter dropped, the tail hit the top of a wall and it began to roll, at which time the pilot put the nose down so that the helicopter would not roll over onto its side. It came to rest with the nose down at a 45º angle. The occupants sustained no serious injuries.
- GoofsThe two helicopters used in the raid were highly modified Sikorsky MH-60 Blackhawks, equipped with sharply angled anti-radar stealth cladding, but the helicopters in the movie appear to be standard Blackhawks.
- Quotes
Lieutenant Commander: As always, we go in sterile. If you get killed you're stupid. If you get captured, you gotta get killed first. Make sure your smart packs are back here.
Featured review
here are what i found after viewed this hollow and empty, full of gestures and big patriotic words, absolutely meant nothing but to give a last minute Viagra-like campaign dose for the incumbent presidential candidate. why aired this before the election? why released it so generously on 'facebook' and 'twitter'? i strongly doubt that the national geography magazine liked to show obama that this magazine 100% endorsing president obama and would like to continuously receive full annual budget from this administration by showing that the president has played a critical role authorizing this mission. with this film released just before the election, more voters would vote for him, or voters who once were uncertain would decide in the last few days to vote for him.
okay, lets focus on this lousy film now. there was no strong storyline of this film. the cool actor who played the main character of 'hell on wheels" was totally wasted here. all the guys who played team members of the seal team 6 were just vague cardboard-like figures in this film. the dialog among the team members was so bored, there's nothing to watch for. some fighting scenes were totally unnecessary, they were jammed into this hollow film to fill up the empty spaces. the only good part was the CIA part, but still a very weak part. the training? it's absolutely a joke. the final raid? another big joke. after the raiders killed that 6'5" guy, suddenly, all the seal team 6 members were like taking a walk in new york's central park, walking down the stairs so relaxed, my god, what a lousy final moment of the raid. did you forget that you were carrying a secret mission in a sovereign country without the permission? did you guys know that time was the essence that you should immediately evacuate the target compound? but instead, what we saw was a bunch of u.s. GI so relaxingly walking down the stairs of that building just like walking out of the Yankee stadium after a ball game. give me a break.
again, i am so convinced that this movie was funded by this administration for the purpose of gaining more votes for the incumbent. it's so ideologically disgusting and politically incorrect.
