I enjoyed “The Delta Force”, which was a cheesy action movie about specialist American forces wiping out Arab terrorists and “Navy Seals” is pretty much a rip-off of that film. “Navy Seals” is one of the most generic action movies that you will ever encounter; it goes through all the motions of an action movie but has no heart.

An elite group of Navy Seals, who are led by Lieutenant James Curran (Michael Biehn “The Rock”, “The Abyss”), are assigned to locate and destroy a stockpile of US missiles that have somehow fallen into the hands of Lebanese terrorists. It isn’t going to be easy as the team put their lives on the line to save the day.

The actors playing the Navy Seals include Michael Biehn, Charlie Sheen (“The Rookie”, “Hot Shots”) and Bill Paxton (“Twister”, “Apollo 13”) but none of them are particularly interesting. The scenes with them where they are having some recreational time feel really forced. The terrorist characters are given little to no screen time and are pretty much just there to be shot at. Joanne Whalley-Kilmer (“Willow”) plays a reporter, who the Navy Seals try to get information from and the character feels unnecessary.

There isn’t anything that’s bad about “Navy Seals” but it just feels really bland. There isn’t anything in this movie that you haven’t seen in “The Delta Force”, “Top Gun”, “Commando”, “Predator”, the “Rambo” films and all the others that came before it. The action sequences need to really grab your attention in a movie like this but they felt tedious and unimaginative. I got the sense that the filmmakers were lazy and hoping to cash-in on the popularity of other action flicks and I’m sorry but that just doesn’t cut it for me. I’ll end on a positive note by pointing out that the sets of war-torn Lebanon near the end of the picture are pretty good.
