Behind Enemy Lines II: Axis of Evil (2006)

Plenty to Like, Plenty to Dislike

Please don't spend money on this.

Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

The cinematography makes me nauseous. Very bumpy. Nothing accurate about the SEALs. Terrible movie.

A very poor sequel to a very good thriller, BEHIND ENEMY LINES: AXIS OF EVIL is about a small group of Navy SEALS attempting to take out a missile site in North Korea. Naturally, everything that can go wrong, does. Shot on the cheap in Bulgaria, this STV is pretty much one continuous firefight, and the battles are so poorly executed that it is hard to tell what is going on a good part of the time. The acting is strictly of the cardboard variety. The film reminds me of a Chuck Norris flick from his days with Cannon, only those films were better. Some old timers pull duty here, including Keith David as a SEALS trainer and Peter Coyote as the president of the U.S. No suspense, no real interest in anything going on. Stick with the original.

This film has absolutely nothing to compare with BEL1. Very unrealistic acting and shooting scenes. Being a great fan of BEL1, I must admit that I didn't get nothing in that taste from this movie.. Please just watch the opening tittles of BEL1 once more, breathtaking from first second to last one. (_______spoiler_______) from it's first minute its very easy to guess that there will be no operation at all and there are just conversations.. that escape with taxi was way too funny. And there definitely had to be another way to get lost (or broken) wireless communication device rather than donkey scene) the only positive thing for this film is those "fast cut" edits and transitions, but even there they go to overkill. i'm sorry.. it's real crap!Way better go watch original BEL once again instead.

all i can say is why bother? no relation to the first film, horrendous directing at best the acting was average, so bad i couldn't be bothered to watch it all. the silly colours meant to depict different parts of the world was a joke, i have travelled all over the world and the light doesn't change from grey to blue to orange anywhere on earth so why does it need to in this movie? the plot had more holes than a 1970s lancia and the whole film looks like a 10 year old kid could have done the gunfire better on a PC in his bedroom. about as fulfilling as spending a couple of hours looking the ceiling. it truly amazes me that films like this are given any budget at all
