I saw this movie starred Gene Hackman and was expecting a decent drama. I put up with almost an hour of this shite until the crazy 'fight the prisoners' scene and I literally could stomach no more.

I never even saw Gene Hackman.



Horrible movie. Why didn't they just make it a musical?

Is that the one with Owen Wilson?? If so you didn't watch it for an hour if you didn't see Gene Hackman.

Actually wasn't nearly as bad as I expected it to be. Almost a decent movie to eat popcorn to.

In terms of Homer Simpsons brainwaves it was ok. In terms of believability it was complete crap. But hey, sometimes you gotta dumb down and pretend, right?

Maybe it just felt like an hour?

I watched it through 'my little sister kicks the door down' and 'taking handcuffs off with a pen and killing 15 vietnamese' and 'sister and the goofy friends (and token black) fly to vietnam and hook up with Phred' to 'fight in the pokey' then I had all I could stands and i could stands no more.

If that wasn't at least an hour it sure felt like one. No, Gene Hackman hadn't appeared yet.

Thank God because I've seen this movie multiple times and couldn't remember any of the above shite.

Behind Enemy Lines with Hackman and Wilson is a good movie. Not great, but good. It is very watchable if nothing else is on.

Behind Ememy Lines with chines people, I have never seen.

OMG there are 2 different movies with the same title??

Stupid DISH network..the description for this stated Gene Hackman was in it..

You guys have restored my faith in Gene Hackman at least that he wouldn't be in something this awful.

This is actually the one I was watching:
