War Games (2010)
4/10
Started okay but got continuously worse

Warning: Spoilers
The only good bit is the start where the "good guys" are playing about with the airsoft guns. I've seen a lot of negative comments regarding the brown and green colours through the entire film, it is "war" so don't expect pretty neon colours.

The acting wasn't too bad but the characters were. At first the main character seems pretty smart, hiding, dropping unnecessary weight, taking the guns from dead bodies etc, it was obvious she would last the longest but it gonw downhill quickly after this. They all picked the complete wrong choice in EVERY situation, wasting bullets, screaming & giving away their position and so on. The ending... She knew everyone had died before leaving so was no need to waste time looking at the bodies. She seen one stand on a bouncing betty type thing yet chose to go towards him on her way out. It ends with her realising that explosive wasn't the only one so steps back away from the body, only to hear a click and then the credits come rolling in.

It was good enough to keep me watching although annoyed at the stupidity. If they put the same amount of effort into the last 3/4 of the film as they did the first quarter, it would have a higher rating from me.
