DVD Description
Features the action films BEHIND ENEMY LINES and BEHIND ENEMY LINES 2. In BEHIND ENEMY LINES, pilot Lt. Chris Burnett is shot down in a remote area of the Balkans and his commanding officer sets out to rescue him. BEHIND ENEMY LINES 2 follows a team of Navy Seals on a top-secret mission to North Korea, where they plan to destroy a missile site. But when things don't go as planned, four of the men find themselves stranded, forced to take on rogue elements as they fight their way to safety. First, however, they must make sure their mission is carried out, saving the world in the process.
Advantages: action packed Disadvantages: needs more of a story line
...) can't just jump in with helicopters and save him because of NATO directives.
At the end of the film he is pined down behind his ejection seat because a sniper who has been tracking him down finds him.
Even when he has the chance to save himself he risks his own life again to get the hard disk with photos of the mass graves of people that were killed by the serbs.
Behindenemylines faired well at the box office and made £2.7m in uk and $60m in the usa and i think its a great film that is at least worth you renting.

...I really like this DVD, bought mine last year. Basically, I am a fan of any special forces that exist in the world and my favorite would be the SAS (Special Air Service). Inside the DVD, they will reveal all the tricks of the trade including the five S's of camouflage: shape, shine, shadow, silhouette and spacing. From surviving hostage situations to coping with brutal interrogations and torture the team show off their skills. Find out how to set up a covert observation post, learn the secrets of firepower tactics or just pick up some tips on how to escape and how to evade the enemy.I also like the style they make this story, using a series of mini-dramas and reconstructions on the ins and outs of survival techniques taught to the elite group, which to me, seems really realistic.
For those who bought this DVD, I would also recommend...

Advantages: Some good action, spectacular locations Disadvantages: Nasty tacky plot, insensitive towards subject matter.
...I seem to have found myself propped in front a few “war movies” lately. Within the last fortnight, I have seen Saving Private Ryan, Black Hawk Down and BehindEnemyLines, which is actually quite a novel concept. Watching three movies from one genre in as many weeks offers plenty of opportunity for comparisons and probably helps the good ones stand out – and the same goes for the turkeys. Of those three movies, I find myself compelled to write about BehindEnemyLines, purely because it prompted the strongest response- though please don’t think for one moment that the response was a particularly positive one.
BehindEnemyLines is the story of Lieutenant Chris Burnett, a US navy flight navigator who finds himself stationed in the Adriatic Sea in the middle of the Balkan crisis. Tired of pointless routine flight...
