Wizard-8
Nu Image's "Operation Delta Force" series came to an end with this entry, and judging from the quality of this entry, the end came not a moment too soon. About the only thing positive I can say about this entry is that some of the photography is pretty good. Now for a list of bad things about this movie! The no-name cast is bland, not helped that most of the protagonists are written to be pretty indistinguishable from each other. The action scenes are flat, directed and edited badly with too much use of slow motion. A lot of the movie borrows footage from other Nu Image movies (For instance, I recognized the train scene at the beginning coming from the Dolph Lundgren movie "Sweepers"!) And stock footage supposing to show the city streets of Boston was obviously shot in Los Angeles - you can see PALM TREES in the footage! Even B-movie action junkies will feel ripped off if they spend anything to see this, and will feel just as angry if they see it for free.

If these guys are supposed to be America's elite fighting force, God help us. This movie is an embarrassment to the Delta Force and all other military combat units. The tactics they displayed during the firefight in the first 20 minutes of the movie were more characteristic of a bunch of middle schoolers, not battle-hardened warriors with mental fortitude. Along with canned dialogue, unrealistic scenarios, and unintentional humor (like when one soldier walks right across a room with bullets screaming by him, making no attempt to crouch or crawl to make himself a smaller target, then gets shot in the leg), maybe a more apt title would be "Police Academy 8: Mission to Kenya."

This is the best film ever the acting is superior the plot lines fantastic and should be on TV everyday so everyone can marvel the film Delta Force. The slow motion action scenes are superb and haven't been tried in any other film which made it different. The only thing i cant understand is why they keep changing the cast in all the films even though they all are great actors and deserve to be in multi-Mulligan action adventure films. I always watch the repeats on channel 5 and would recommend anyone to buy the box-set on DVD and VHS immediately. i cant believe that nobody even film critics find this film rubbish and boring the fact is no-one has ever seen a good action film so they wouldn't know what they are talking about. Then upon actually watching this superb Oscar award winning film i found that it was crap and i was actually talking in my sleep.

writing as someone who's occasionally liaised with UK and US special forces I can only hope that they have a sense of humour if they ever see this. Certain sections obviously weren't skimped on but surely they could have afforded less flabby and more talented actors and a story that at least tried to inject some tension and humanity.
