Act of Valor 2012

     An undercover CIA agent is kidnapped, an elite team of Navy SEALs are sent on a covert mission to recover her.  These aren't actors but active-duty SEALs doing their job.  Inspired by true events and real combat using the latest in battlefield technology.  They are the most highly trained group of soldiers in the modern world.  The CIA agent was onto a huge plot involving sending suicide bombers to the US.
       I really don't know why this movie got such bad reviews on Rotten Tomatoes?  I really liked this movie and it doesn't feel like a Hollywood creation but what really happened when a team of this type when in to take down Osama Ben Lauden.  The other person viewing this with me has military experience and the only comment was they probably would have had more air support.  I was very impressed by the technology and the sacrifices of the team.

110 min, Action directed by Mice McCoy, Scott Waugh with Jason Cottle, Nestor Serrano, Alisa Marshall, Gonzalo Menendez, Emilio Rivera, DimiterD. Marinov, Thomas Rosales Jr.

Note:  Blockbuster 3 1/2*, imdb 6.4 out of 10, 25% critic 76% audience on Rotten Tomatoes.
