Nifty performances make this routine action flick better than it probably has a right to be.

Reviews for Navy Seals
[It] amounts to a less-than-involving two-hour commercial for the Navy.
Not entirely bereft of entertainment value, even if most of it comes in the "unintentional" variety.
Teague, meanwhile, is far too busy orchestrating the large-scale action sequences to make anything of the cardboard characters, episodic plotting, or clunking dialogue.
The film where we began to suspect that Charlie Sheen might not be as cool as we thought.
Like a real Navy SEAL, it does what it's supposed to do and gets out of there quickly, and doesn't remain in your memory for long.
