Virtually none of the dialogue rings true. All of the characters' actions and reactions ring false in virtually every scene. Full of basic technical inconsistencies- just an example: where would an MP get a Combat Infantryman's Badge in 1988? Was he an Infantryman during the Invasion Of Grenada, and then changed his MOS sometime during the intervening 5 years? It's difficult to maintain the suspension of disbelief from minute-to-minute throughout the movie.
I'm only watching this because it's on HBO late at night and I had never heard of it before. I'm an hour into the film and I just checked the guide channel to see how much of the movie was left, and there's still almost an hour to go. To make matters worse, I tried a box of baked macaroni bites while watching this and they turned-out to be not nearly as good as I was hoping. I think I might read about how the movie ends on Wikipedia and just call it a night.
