U.S. Seals (2000)

I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

By far one of the worst Military/War movies I have ever seen. Simple mistakes like having a Sgt. in the U.S. Navy. Any one with two brain cells and access to the internet should know that there isn't a single non-commissioned officer in the Navy with a title of Sergeant... Action sequences were horrible, weapon selection was completely unrealistic... No SEAL team would have any one with a 12-gauge as their primary weapon. And what ever happened to SEALs being stealthy and covert,it was bad enough they didn't use any sort of tactics, but for a "SEAL" team to go in with unsuppressed weapons is just ridiculous. If you'd like a good laugh at horrible acting in a Hollywood style, no reloads necessary, shoot em up... waste 94 minutes of your life with this on your T.V.

I had fun watching this movie. Not because it was a great action movie, but simply because it had so many flaws and mistakes that it became embarrassing. Of course, we get to meet the typical special force unit stereotypes, where everyone is supposed to kick ass and of course are good to the bone (one of them works at a shelter in his spare time, lol). And of course, the villain is some sleazy and creepy guy from Eastern Europe. Seen it before? YES!!!The movie has so many ridiculous things to it. Was there a story somewhere? I kept looking and looking, but didn't find much of it. Also, some of the scenes are supposed to take place in San Francisco, but it just gets ridiculous when it's clearly some Eastern European slum instead. Two different scenes, one in San Francisco and one in Albania, takes place in the same run-down warehouse/factory. Huge amounts of stuff like this makes this movie great as a comedy, but I wont credit the people behind this movie for this because it's clearly unintentional.

Most of the films I have seen in school are always trying to be artsy-fartsy, right? I watch this movie and I see a simplistic yet emotionally involving film because of the subject matter. What would you do if someone killed your wife???? Hello? I would do what this character does, go after the SOB. I have to to say, I have not rented This actor's (James Fitzpatrick) other action movies, but if they are as good as this one, I will rent them all. I'm sure because the U.S.Seals are in a time of war with the terrorists, they would not want to reveal all of their tactics and strategies, but, I still like the fact of the story that the film takes us on a ride throughout Bulgaria, Turkey and parts of the United States. Good one guys.

I saw this on Channel 5 in the UK back in 2002 and having seen a lot of bad movies since then and having seen 2 other Yossi Wein efforts (Disaster aka Cult Of Fury and Lethal Ninja) and found them to be hilariously bad, I wanted to see U.S Seals again as I remembered it being bad but had forgotten most of it. Well, I found the DVD of it for a relatively cheap price and guessed there wasn't really anything to lose in buying it. Was there? Not really. Was it bad? Yes. Bad enough to be funny? Sure.I'll start with what there is to say that's genuinely positive about it. This was a NuImage production, who work with larger production budgets than most B-movie studios around so unlike say, Crazy Six or Urban Menace, it does look like at least some of the people thought they were making a movie. With the exception of stock footage appearing rather often and outdoor locations which are obviously not the USA, the production values are better than your average Grade Z movie.But that's all. Yossi Wein is perhaps the worst director in existence. At least Jim Wynorski has the excuse of his low budgets, but Yossi Wein was quite obviously handed a budget that something decent could have been made of with all the explosions, stunts and destruction that takes place. However, not only does he not know how and when to use these properly, he also doesn't seem to know the tiniest little bit about what he's basing the movie around, US Seals! What this resembles is what a movie is like if it's on in the background and you're doing something else not paying full attention to it. For example, you may miss something and think something is a plot hole. However, this is chock full of plot holes and things happen without any explanation for it at all. In an action movie, I can always suspend my belief. After all, most are just escapist fun and that's why I love them and we have to accept continuity errors to a point. But this absolutely takes the p*ss. There are too many errors, so let's just pick off the most glaringly obvious.How did the villains know where Mike and Melissa lived? I don't think I missed anything, but there was no explanation.I'm pretty sure a navy seal would not be allowed to have bleached blonde hair. Constant stock footage of vehicles driving through San Francisco, then cutting back and forth between locations that are obviously outside of the USA complete with European vehicles (Ford Transit's).Completely random action that makes no sense at all. For example, the villains, while under attack from our heroes, drive into a cobbled square in the centre of a town and decide to destroy everything in sight. Why? Instead of defending themselves they go out their way to destroy every Lada parked there, while for no apparent reason one comes driving up at high speed and explodes. Again, why? This pointless scene is also badly edited together, as one of the cars is already crushed before the tank is shown going near it. There's more, including three scenes involving cranes, one in which for no apparent reason has an old army truck suspended over it, which they shoot off and it falls and explodes! It looks like Yossi just decided to have some fun with the pyrotechnics and at the last minute realized he was supposed to be making a movie.Those seals are invincible! I can only assume they're cyborgs with incredibly fast reflex times and eyes on the back of their heads! That theory would also work considering their style of acting. While the villains they are against have never touched weapons in their lives before. In one scene, two goons with automatic weapons shoot at 2 of the seals from above, on top of a crane. Not only do they miss and the seals don't duck, they grab out their pistols and take both of them out with one shot!These are navy seals and their tactics just include running into the line of fire and taking out the first enemy. Wow!Weather which changes between sunshine and snow and back in less than a minute.A small one but nobody is seen reloading in the entire movie. I guess Yossi just completely forgot about that.There is a lot of action, but I don't think scenes where the good guys run out into the line of fire, don't get hit and take out all the bad guys is anyone's idea of how action scenes should be handled. Clearly, Yossi Wein has absolutely no idea how to make an action movie, and he obviously knows even less about navy seals. I see that he hasn't directed anything since 2001, perhaps NuImage have finally realized just how bad he is?Anyway, this is a good example of how not to make an action movie. It's chock full of clichés, plot holes and continuity errors. Perhaps all the errors would work if the movie acted like a parody of the action genre and believe me, all the action scenes in this would be perfect fodder for a parody but no, this is marketed as serious stuff! Generally I like what most people call "bad action movies" so if you think they are bad, I recommend you to see this.
