charlytully I almost never shaft a feature movie with a rating of just 1 out of 10, but it is hard to see how anyone who has seen nine or more movies in their lifetimes could find it in their heart to give SEAL TEAM VI anything higher than that. The alternate universe in which this flick unwittingly takes place is somewhere sane people would not want to visit, let alone live there.In SEAL TEAM VI's fake realm, mid-level U.S. military officers can jab their forefingers into the chests of U.S. Senate intelligence committee chairmen with no fear of rebuke. On the other hand, this sort of senator may exercise real-time "live" supervision of covert combat operations on the other side of the world, with his two cents worth put on an equal footing with that of the ground commander.Unfortunately, for viewers of SEAL TEAM VI, it is never clear exactly what their mission to Iraq in the 1990s is. Perhaps they are time-traveling, with the objective of planting weapons of mass destruction to turn up a decade later, in order to vindicate the administration of Bush Junior. Perhaps they are lost, as their insertion in-country via ocean plunge is one of the 85 dumbest things about this film.At any rate, the plot is totally ludicrous. The main character manages to kill any children that come within a mile of him, and all the dying kids have the same last words. This same character comes back in the flesh for curtain calls, like some sort of militaristic Jesus. Since the acting and dialogue are unrealistic, and the special effects are worse, it's little wonder that the title was shortened to just SEAL TEAM for the DVD release (lessening the similarity to the infamous LEONARD: PART SIX).

veedub007 I am currently working in Afghanistan. I just watched this big steaming pile of a film on AFN. I was in the USAF back in the 80's and even I could see everything that was wrong militarily w/ this Navy film. The film makers couldn't find ANYONE to ask simple military questions? This film had sooo much potential, but fell soooo flat. The above reviews do a good job of listing the flaws in this film. I just hope that the filmmaker reads these reviews and learns from them for all future endeavors. HINT: When you use stock footage of an F-18 bringing in your airstrike, keep using F-18 footage. Do not jump between F-14s, A-10s, and F-22s.

titandiyala Hope they don't use this movie as a recruiting film. "Navy SEALs" was bad, but this was worse. Whoever the 'Technical Adviser' was, he must have owned a Surplus Store and that's what they used to outfit the actors with 'combat gear' for the movie. New guy joins team as replacement. Continuity, gentlemen, continuity: IF you show the team take off to infiltrate an enemy area in a helicopter, the NEXT shot cannot have them HALO jump out of a C130. They never put on a parachute. They put on gas masks, then the next shot shows them diving off the ramp with a HALO parachute on (No rucksacks), then next shot shows them with parachutes and rucksacks in freefall. When they land in the water, (guess they lost the rucks) the gas masks (they were wearing on exit) turn into swim masks with snorkels. Wait for the 'dollar' movie show.

Firestorhm Let me start off by saying I hate writing reviews like this. I went into this movie knowing it was something of a lower budget "indie" flick supposedly based on a true story, but bought a new copy off the internet as soon as it came out anyways. I'd seen a trailer of it on-line, and it looked pretty decent. What my wife and I got was not only the worst SEAL movie ever, but just a flat out BAD MOVIE.Without going into too much detail or spoiling anything, this movie deals with the first gulf war back in 1991. There are so many continuity errors in this film, I don't know where to begin. For example, it shows regular Army soldiers wearing new "ACU" cameo pattern uniforms that they didn't even have back then. There was also another time when some of the SEALs are putting some of their weapons into a bag. You could see the orange tip of one of the rifles, indicating it was actually a plastic air soft rifle. There's simply too many things to list.I thought the acting was pretty bad, not the worst, but it wasn't that great. I don't think the Naval Special Warfare community was represented very well by this film. I'm in the military so maybe I'm more critical of this movie than others. Be that as it may, I don't think the writers or directors even contacted a real SEAL (or anyone in any branch of any military) at any point during the making of this film. I'm not familiar with the "true" events this movie is based on, but I would highly suggest reading a book about it (if available) instead of watching this movie.During the film, I kept hearing my wife "sigh," indicating her discontent with the movie. She'd say, "I'm trying to stay focused on the story, but...(sigh)." I totally agree with her. The movie jumped around a lot and was loaded with stock footage of fighter jets, bad special effects, and terrible continuity.If you're a die-hard SEAL movie guy like me, you'll probably watch this movie despite my searing review. But you've been warned! If I could get 90 minutes of my life back, I would love to. I usually get a little enjoyment out of bad movies, but this was beyond terrible, and didn't even have that "funny" enjoyable aspect that many bad movies have. Keep in mind, this review is based on THE MOVIE, not the actual events or the guys that were involved in them. Bottom line: Save yourself the time and skip this movie. Seriously. I don't think you can comprehend how bad it is until you actually see it. Watch at your own risk!
