So there seems to be some debate about whether this is made-for-TV or a B movie. Well, it appears to have been made for the cinema but with writers and a director not used to producing B movie quality. The two lead actors, Thomas Ian Griffith as Mike Weston, and Chris Mulkey as Jones, are competent, the minor ones less so. If the Vietnamese actors look like Philippinos, there is a reason for that! The camera-work is pretty good, though I could use less slo-mo, and the action scenes are frequent and watchable. The main problem is the writing. The basic story is too stupid to be worth describing. The US military is portrayed as full of low-intellect young men who can't put a sentence together without profanity. I wondered if there was some irony there but I don't think so. Sit back and enjoy the action, if you can?

Thought this beaut was the Gene Hackman film. Oops wrong. Even several large whiskys while watching couldn't disguise the quality of this picture. The editing was very poor but the bit that stuck out for me was in the battle at the end, where the heroes whilst escaping and mowing down scores of hopelessly poor enemy marksmen, stop to have a earnest chat over something. Strolling nonchalantly along tete a tete, all shooting stops, even the enemy, while the heroes parley. Then suddenly realising where they were recommence the battle killing scores more enemy. Never knew you could call time out in a pitched battle. Never saw a rifle magazine changed and even hits on canvas tents were making sparks and flashes. This film should be age rated. Not suitable for anyone over 12 years old

Mikes is gonna get his pal Jonesie out of the prison from Vietnam, who is there captured one year ago when they were on a mission. But Mike is also getting busted. His sister and 3 of his friends, which he trained in the army, are gonna try to rescue them. It's a nice movie, good story, but the shooting is very exaggerated. Nearly anyone of the 'good' guys are getting hit in the rain of bullets.

I saw this on cable recently and got the feel that it was a tv-movie. The acting was low grade, and the story was shallow. The first scene sets a fast pace, and can pass for a cinema released movie, but after that, the entire film is a joke. It was full of plot holes, and does everything against common sense. The script even has scenes which attempt to make us feel for the characters, but fail miserably. I reason being that we dont even know the characters names, besides the hero. The dialogue seemed as if it was written by a grade-school student, despite the numerous occasions which the characters swear their heads off. As if profanity is required for a f***ing film to be successful. I know this comment may sound ironic, but why write these movies if theres nothing good to come out of it.

My friends, this is an incredibly insipid movie. How many Vietnam-era flicks are gonna be produced before someone eventually decides "enough is enough"? Ignoring such films as "Platoon" or "Apocalypse Now" or "The Deer Hunter" (truly splendid examples of cinema within the genre) and also ignoring the first "Rambo" film (a movie I embarrasingly admit to having enjoyed), I have this suspicion that some shady, weasel-like producer in sunny So. California thought to himself "Hey! I know how to make a quick buck! I'll screw a few investors outta a couple hundred grand and I'll make a, uhh... yeah! I'll make a 'Nam flick!" Phuuleeze! Give it a rest, willya? The only people who would possibly find this movie worth watching are pre-pubescent little boys living in Idaho.

I stumbled upon the 1997 action thriller "Behind Enemy Lines"; not to be mistaken for the 2001 movie with the same name but starring Owen Wilson and Gene Hackman. Now, I had never even heard about this 1997 movie from writers Andrew Osborne and Dennis Cooley before now in 2022, as I sat down to watch it. So I wasn't really harboring much of any expectations for the movie. And with the likes of Thomas Ian Griffith and Chris Mulkey in the leading roles, I can't exactly say that I was expecting this to be a top of the line movie. But still, I opted to watch it, as I hadn't already seen director Mark Griffiths' 1997 movie. Well, honestly speaking, then "Behind Enemy Lines" was actually a fairly entertaining movie. Sure, it was a very generic war movie in terms of it being a small underdog team that beat the massive opposition. And in this case it was former U. S. marines taking on Vietnamese soldiers. Yeah, that was the storyline here, so not much points scored for originality. It was pretty hilarious that the movie was filmed in The Philippines, but was supposed to take place in Vietnam. Sure, it would have worked, if they had done a proper effort into making it look like it was Vietnam, such as having Vietnamese actors - as there is a big difference in appearances between the Vietnamese and Philippine people, also things like not using Jeepneys which is common to The Philippines, and such details. It just took away from the authenticity of the movie. I spotted the fact that it was The Philippines right away. "Behind Enemy Lines" is a lean back in the seat with the popcorn kind of movie, and doesn't require anything cerebral from the audience. So it was fair entertainment for the masses, especially if you enjoy these predictable late 1990s war movies. As for the cast in "Behind Enemy Lines", then I will say that Thomas Ian Griffith actually was surprisingly good in the role of Mike Weston. And Philippine actors Mon Confiado and Spanky Manikan added a lot of flavor to the movie. It was nice to see James Karen pop up in the movie, just a shame his role was so small. This was a watchable movie, although not a particularly outstanding or memorable one. But it was sufficient enough for a single viewing. My rating of the 1997 movie "Behind Enemy Lines" lands on a five out of ten stars.

Mike Weston (TIG) is an ex-Marine who just wants to forget the hard times and live it up on his boat in Tahiti with his buddies. Unfortunately, when he discovers that his former partner from his mercenary days, Jones (Mulkey) is being held captive in prison so he can be used as a bargaining chip so a sadistic general can obtain some nuclear triggers, Mike Weston suddenly begins to believe in the awesome power of Mike Weston again. Rousing his washout friends from their sloth, they all undertake the mission of a lifetime: to save their friend and stop the triggers from falling into the wrong hands. Also Weston's sister Kat (Matthews) and taxi driver Phred (Confiado) are along for the ride. What will happenBEHIND ENEMY LINES? Behind Enemy Lines - not to be confused with the 2001 movie with Owen Wilson and Gene Hackman (or the 1987 Cirio Santiago film of the same name) - starts out seeming ALMOST mainstream, but then it quickly slides into a quicksand of repetitive stupidity it can't pull itself out from. If you've ever seen Missing in Action (1984) or P.O.W. The Escape (1986) - interestingly also known as Behind Enemy Lines - this is pretty much more of the same, except it came out in 1997, when things were souring in the DTV world. Thomas Ian Griffith (who we affectionately call TIG) looks a LOT like Ben Affleck in this movie. I mean, a LOT. It was the 90's after all, and the 'fleck was on the rise. The fact that it was the 90's might also explain why there's a character named Phred. P-H-R-E-D. He even has a large sign on his taxi proudly proclaiming PHRED is coming. All that being said, The movie is slow and unoriginal, with nary a surprise in sight. The dialogue is so overpoweringly dumb, it feels like it was created by - and aimed for - small children. This is an uneasy mix with shooting and blow-ups in the jungle, not to mention the time-honored Prerequisite Torture. So you can have all the guard tower falls you want, but if the spoken dialogue is basically "nyah nyah nyah nyah nyah", the audience feels insulted and cheated. Another reason the audience doesn't get hooked in, and thus interested in the plight of the characters, is that there is seemingly a lot of dead time with characters jawing about stuff we don't care about. The main baddie should have been clearly defined and ever-present, and the whole outing streamlined with less blah-blah and more rockin' action scenes. We're not even going to ASK for character development. We realize that might be a bridge too far. Naturally, it all ends with yet another final warehouse fight, and then disappears off the screen like the smoke from a blown-out birthday candle. And it leaves just as much of an impact on your eyeballs. Sadly, Behind Enemy Lines is just another movie on a screen. It probably sat and collected dust on video store shelves everywhere back in the 90's. It adds nothing new to the table except annoyance. We really didn't like it.
