When I casually found this movie a few months back I esitated because it has a score of 4,6 and nearly all negative reviews. However, when I saw it I kinda found it decent.
After the end of the Vietnam war some evil North Vietnamese love to kill American prisoners of war, and Robert McBain (Christopher Walken) is among them. Later an helicopter filled with angry American soldiers arrives, saves the prisoners and destroy the camp. Then McBain formes his own squad with his former comrades in arms for a new assignment... go to Colombia and kill its evil dictator who made his position with drug dealing and evil, and as you expect, our heroes will end unscathed.
While it has a direct to video look and ok cinematography, MCBAIN never failed to entertain me. First, it's surprising seeing Christopher Walken in such a movie since you mostly expect Chuck Norris or Arnold Schwarzenegger in this role, but he carries the part well. The action, while not like that of the movies with the two aforementioned stars, it was still good. In substance, a decent time passer if you have low expectations but nothing more.
