davefromfwb Nothing about this movie was correct but if your looking for a Friday the 13th meet Texas chainsaw in Vietnam then this film is for you. The creator only used the term tunnel rats to make money off of something that was way more interesting in real life than in this movie. I can't even begin to reference the number of stupid things that just would not have happened during that time. I'm actually afraid that as time goes on....people will just make stuff up and people will believe it as facts. I believe that the best of Hollywood is over and that the age or doing real research and fact finding in movies is over. Just as good music is dead...so are good movies. Sad but true.

fivekc Make no bones about it, this film is TERRIBLE. Everything about the making and production of this film has been shockingly misjudged.For the first 30 minutes of this Boll tries to make you fell empathy for the character's bleak situation for what lies ahead, but instead it just irritates you as the characters are all paper-thin and the dialogue is terrible. As the film progresses it becomes more and more silly, and is riddled with historical and tactical inaccuracies, which really make you think he should have read a bit more into the background of the actual tunnel rat units in Vietnam. At some point it almost borders on insult towards Americans in its ridiculous and unsentimental portrayal of its fighting men.If like me, you watched this film hoping for insight into this fascinating aspect of fighting in the Vietnam war, I suggest instead you read Mangold & Penycate's Tunnels of CuChi, its what Boll should have done.

bdaubney I've always been a fan of war movies, Vietnam in particular. I like how film directors work hard to try their best to re-create the horror and brutality of war. It is very frustrating to me when you find a movie like 'Tunnel Rats', that seems to lack any real focus or originality. Basically, to me, this movie is awful. Terrible acting, plot less storyline--even the costumes were bad. I don't understand, with all the brilliant war movies out there, not to mention thousands of books about Vietnam War for references, how the director didn't put any effort into the realism of the story. It's over-the-top gore in places just seemed unnecessary,like it was trying to compensate for the rest of this wasted movie. If you like Vietnam films, avoid this turkey and just watch one of the classics instead.

aledh-644-505424 Despite having an air of doubt over this film after reading that the director Uwe Boll was given a Razzie award for worst director I decided to watch it. I am glad I did. This film portrays the problems the US army faced with the Kamikaze Vietnamese soldiers.The Army's job is to flush out the tunnels and render them useless, but little do they know that the tunnels they are in are actually above where they need to be. The Vietnamese suicide squad does its best to stop all this from happening.This film has blood, action, fighting, explosions and a hint of gore. The screen play is top notch and I think the director does not deserve the Razzie, he did a fantastic job. The actors are little known but still I recommend watching.My rating 8/10
