    Despite some of the sentimentality that is also Woo's stock-in-trade, I was moved and absorbed throughout.

    It's the best new battle film since "Black Hawk Down," a movie it surpasses in sheer feeling and bravura style, if not in nightmarish panic and suspense.

    Cage is superb as a hollowed-out, ferocious man of action chasing his demons recklessly with machine gun firing away.
