Two U.S. Marines are given the duty of protecting two Navajo soldiers whose native language is being used as a code. Their mission is simple: protect them at all costs. It will take the will of four men to get through the war together or else find themselves in a compromising situation.



This is an amazingly directed film by John Woo. The story seems a bit weak at some points. Overall I enjoyed it a lot.

Rating: 4 of 5 stars
