He Who Dares (2014)

That was an excellent one.

Good idea lost in the noise

It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny

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

I've watched crap movies before, but this will be the worst ever movie I've ever wasted my time on. To say too much about would further waste more time, but what a waste of time. Director, producer and everyone who made this film needs to get another job.

A Very simple plot, group of terrorists take the prime ministers daughter hostage, barricade themselves up in a building and the hero's (SAS) are sent in to save the day. Sounds like it could be good right ? Wrong, the terrorists are portrayed as highly skilled and professional soldiers with a stereotypical psychopathic leader, however they shout at everything, shoot guns in the air and pretty much kill everything that moves on full auto, clearly demonstrating a rather unprofessional and unskilled mob. Then bring in the hero's ! The special air service, the most elite fighting force in the world ! From the start portrayed as bunch of idiots who act like idiots with no respect for protocol or authority, enter a building on a whim with no knowledge of layout, number of people, terrorists demands or anything really, clearly something the cub scouts would do that let alone this country's elite ! Of course most are shot within minutes, again not sure the worlds most elite would be humbled by a man wearing a skull mask and a pistol however most are until only a couple are left bla bla bla.. I think you can see where the film is headed... So to summarise its a film written and directed by someone with no knowledge of any forces let alone special forces, has done very little research into finding out anything of said forces, no knowledge of weaponry and there limitations, actors you get for free when you save up the tokens from tesco's, laughable script and lighting so dark you'll need night vision to view it properly. It's very disappointing the Americans make a film and make any of there's forces (which there are many) seem like the best of the best, we have the best of the best and make them seem like a joke. HORRENDOUS. 0 out of 10.

This film, a British film called He Who Dares is one if not the worst British film I have seen in a long time. It is based around a kidnapping of the British Prime Ministers daughter on Christmas eve whilst she is at a party, the so called hero's are the SAS, I say so-called because in this film it makes them out to be Gung-Ho trigger happy morons who rush into a situation without finding out everything there is to know about the incident. Other reviews say it's a bit of a comedy but I cannot see how murder and violence can be called a comedy. This film should be locked in a steel water tight container and thrown into the deepest canyon in the sea never to be seen again.

The title hooked me and I bought this DVD on the strength of the description. This film is not worthy to use this title. The real SAS must have been rolling around the floor laughing at the antics of this bunch of no hopers. The story is very similar to a certain film set in a tower with a off duty cop trying to rescue a hostage. The story had a huge potential to make this a good movie but it let itself down from the first scene and went rapidly downhill after that. If I hadn't spent # pounds of my hard earned money on this I would have turned off after the first ten minutes. If you want to see something better then buy Who Dares Wins with Lewis Collins, it's ten times better than this effort.
