Teague, meanwhile, is far too busy orchestrating the large-scale action sequences to make anything of the cardboard characters, episodic plotting, or clunking dialogue.

[It] amounts to a less-than-involving two-hour commercial for the Navy.

Nothing great, or even good, but better than you might expect.

They take their explosives and their silly roles much too seriously.

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.

The film where we began to suspect that Charlie Sheen might not be as cool as we thought.

Not entirely bereft of entertainment value, even if most of it comes in the "unintentional" variety.

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