Bandito Brothers is in charge of making this film; They also did the short film Driving in the Lights with the M3 and BMW's commercial for "Joy is Racing"

They produce most of the Navy Recruiting advertisements too. I'm stoked to see this

Finally got to see an advanced screening a few days ago..

seriously exceeded my expectations and I was on the edge of my seat during the entire film.

Definitely Oscar worthy.

Hope you guys see it soon!

The video used Actual SEALS for actors, so it should be as authentic as possible.

The NAVY is also going to be using it as a recruiting tool.. Should be good =)

Likely be a decent movie, special effects, etc. Typical American 'hero' movie.

Not a shock really though coming from a bunch of douchebag hippies like the critics on RT...

I think Generation Kill was helped by using a couple real guys, hopefully the same effect will be seen with this movie. I think authentic military storylines do much better in mini-series such as BoB and GK though. Saving Private Ryan was pretty good as well, but I think it was helped by the fact it was a bit longer than a traditional movie.

On that note, have you guys seen Restrepo?

I seen Restrepo, I think it was good but not in the same class as Black Hawk Down.

Well there's a pretty fundamental difference between Restrepo and Black Hawk Down.
