Special Forces Ratings & Reviews
IONCINEMA.com
Nicholas Bell
It's hard to take the proceedings seriously when they can barely hold our interest.
Movie Chambers
Paul Chambers
"Special Forces" has nothing constructive to say about bravery or the conflict in Afghanistan. It's just mindless action, and boring to boot.
Cinemalogue
Todd Jorgenson
Stephane Rybojad has seen too many Hollywood action movies, because the director of this overwrought and borderline laughable French war film copies many of them.
Film Journal International
Maitland McDonagh
Imagine Saving Private Ryan relocated to Afghanistan and Pakistan and you have the gist of first-time feature filmmaker Stphane Rybojad's actioner about the rescue of a French journalist marked for death by the Taliban.
Washington Post
Michael O'Sullivan
If you turned the sound off and removed the subtitles, you might actually think you were watching an old Hollywood shoot-'em-up.
New York Times
Andy Webster
"Special Forces" aims to inspire but ends up wallowing in melodrama.
Los Angeles Times
Robert Abele
It's not only Americans who can make leaden, video game-style exercises in dumb war action.
New York Daily News
Elizabeth Weitzman
An uneven effort ...
Village Voice
Chris Packham
Could have been hilariously subversive if director Stphane Rybojad had pushed it further.
Slant Magazine
Rob Humanick
The film walks a questionable line between Important Issue seriousness and antsy video-game machismo.
