Verdict on Seal Team Eight: Behind Enemy Lines

Seal Team Eight: Behind Enemy Lines is an action movie following a group of Navy seals set on a mission. They must travel behind enemy lines to rescue a prisoner. However, not everything is as it seems and they must fight against the odds to escape.

This is a movie that uses the title of a popular war movie to grab a few more headlines. At the core of the story, it does everything right to give us a simple and entertaining story of soldiers needing to overcome the odds. However, none of the soldiers get enough time to shine and feel flat. It is all generic and while it entertains, it won’t stick with you for very long afterwards.
