It wasted me 1.5 hours in my life...sucks. My wife said so too. I watched this one because the previous two ones were good. Unfortunately this one is really sucks. I'm not saying the actor was bad but the story is terrible. I could saw the end when I watched it for 20 minutes. Basically it's a no brain movie. Jeez I don't know why I'm still wasting more time for writing this comment. Maybe just because I feel sorry for the one. I guess there will be no v4.0. event die hard had 4.0 and not too bad. I think I got to review the DVDs of the previous two ones. I think the requirement as the minimum length for reviews must be at least 10 lines of text is unreasonable because the only thing I wanted to say about this movie is, sucks.

Action movies are predictable but this one I thought was a little different. The main protagonist was bad but not your typical bad guy. Yes there was a scene that was unrealistic( Come on its Hollywood you expect it to be realistic what action movie is.) but you have to make the star the hero of the movie. It is called The Marine: Home Front for a reason he had been through a lot and knows about combat. He know how people think and work that what he is trained for. Marine's are bad-asses. I thought the acting was great and non-stop just kept watching going, wow can he top himself. It was a great plot and thoroughly enjoyed watching it. I waited weeks for the movie to come out being a huge Mike the "The Miz" fan. I was hoping but not expecting it to live up to my expectations. It did that an more. It was "AWESOME".

It didn't take me long into watching "The Marine: Homefront" when I said, "I've seen this before." In fact, I repeated that phrase in my head A LOT during the entire ninety minutes this movie took. Clearly the story and various plot elements aren't very original. And there are plenty of plot stupidities, like the fact the bad guys often can't hear gunfire taking place just a short distance away, or that their number are being slowly eliminated. Actually, the unoriginality and the stupidity of the script didn't concern me that much - I can take such stuff in a movie like this as long as there is good and plentiful action. But this movie doesn't have any of that. In the first half of the movie, there is perhaps a minute's worth of action in total! While the second half of the movie has a lot more action, it isn't that well done. It's generic shooting and punch-ups, filmed without any skill to make it rise above routine. There's nothing much of interest in this movie, and the best praise I can give it is that it was shot in the Canadian province I live in (British Columbia) and gave some work to my fellow citizens in front of and behind the camera.

If a single marine has to kill all the bad guys, where as the local police, SWAT and FBI failed miserably, then what was the fun of keeping this much cast in the movie? Marines must have been good and to show them as they are invincible, that's not a true depiction of the force. In an operation where the SWAT team fails in a manner that all of them got killed without taking out even a single terrorist, a single marine has managed to kill all of them and the local police and the FBI kept on watching, I think this is funny stuff, what your opinion do enlighten me
. More so, FBI special agent keeps on sending SWAT in to a kill zone once he visualized that it's a suicidal mission, but he kept on sending in the SWAT till the last one was dead, which is not so true, it's kind of unnatural and inhuman which was shown in the movie as a daring act but stupid otherwise
I gave this movie 3/10.
