    Not a war film, but it's got British soldiers in it. *"Dog Soldiers". *I went to see this last night and managed about 40 minutes. *Lets start at the beginning:

    Hero fails SAS selection during an E&E ex for refusing to pointlessly shoot a dog (he's just done a bit of fighting so is establised as hard and decent)(takes out one of the unfortunate hunter force with a ninja throwing torch - a nice touch). *Head SAS bloke shoots dog anyway and hero declares his intention to exact revenge.

    Hero rejoins Regiment and goes on exercise; a tough affair involving team whistling while patrolling and chatting round a campfire. *

    Dead shredded cow lands on the campfire and causes a little debate. *Blood trail followed to dead shredded SAS blokes and one cas; the SAS dog executioner mentioned above. *SAS baddy looks as if he knows all about the monsters responsible and was investigating them without letting anyone else know. *Perhaps a potential weapon? *The sneaky baddy SAS.

    Everyone runs away from sprinting shadowy dog things while firing in general dog direction with the dead SAS mens' weapons. *One bloke dies and good old Sarge gets his belly slashed and his guts fall out. *Random woman turns up in a Land Rover, everyone gets in, including the 2 cas (Sarge and SAS Baddy). *Amazingly they get stuck! *Dog thing jumps on roof, pokes his doggy arm through and gets knifed. *Not happy. *Everyone escapes. *

    Baddy SAS bloke is clearly concerned about attempts to get away from area as these dog things are secret. *I am now deciding that I can see the rest of the plot and walk out.

    In short: *Exceptionally S H I T.

    maybe not a film but a TV program "Bloody Sunday". * Did anyone watch this piece of propaganda. *It must have been paid for by the Guardian or the Mirror. Ohh a bit bitter there, sorry

    Shame you walked out Good CO, because the film just gets better and better , it's not meant to be taken seriously, and, if it makes you feel better, I'm sure the Dog Soldier team are supposed to be TA, as evidenced by Sean Pertwees comment."Before I left the regulars".......

    Definately Alien II and Evil Dead influenced, let me finish it 4 u.....

    Several people sell their lives dearly, one twist you could see coming, but opens the way for a sequel, and Mr. Hard but Decent, is hard but decent.

    Funny thing though, the film-makers, absolutely refused to rip the piss out of the army, and whoever directed/advised on it, knows a thing or 2 about Squaddies......

    A map they could all understand.

    Fair points all and I'm probably being too harsh. *(looks sheepish, but isn't about to rush out and buy the DVD).

    (Was the selling lives bit a follow on from the tattoo in the gulf incident? I take it that SAS bloke and Mr Hard but decent have a set to?)

    Mr.Hard but Decent, and Mr. PsuedoSaSNastyBastard have a proper set to, which forms the climax of the film (Quelle surprise) . It's funny, but I've never met a Sasser who was such a dyed-in-the-wool nutter.........

    Worth hiring on video GoodBoss, and I look forward to the sequel.....

    Red Dawn has got to be contender. *The USA is invaded by the Cubans & their allies. *Heroic teenage school kids fight as a resistance movement.

    I watched it in Leicester Square with some friends after a visit to the pub. *We found it a giggle a minute. *Much to the annoyance of two Yanks sitting misty eyed in the row in front.
