Behind Enemy Lines is a great action movie that’s guaranteed to entertain you and keep you on the edge of your seat. The explosions, gun fights, and chase scenes are all exciting, and the movie is filled with a ton of great, A List type actors. Owen Wilson does quite an amazing job playing the lead role, and his performance is so good, that it will make you really root and cheer for his character. I think this is one of those movies that are extremely underrated. Behind Enemy Lines is probably my second favorite movie of all time.

Why the heck did they cast owen wilson, I never got that. Well, it seemed like a very short movie in my opinion, with a lot of action scenes which is mainly just huge explosions and bad guys shooting at the main hero. The action scenes are cool, but way too short and don't keep you engaged, and as a big fan of the action movie genre, I have to say, I was a little disappointed.

The action scenes were really good. The acting is ok. The plot is too concerned into patriotism which make it a bit unatural. Well, it's a good entertaining action movie.

This is just a average action/war movie. The story was wrapped and draped in patriotism, which made it unbelievable. The acting wasn't very good. The action scenes saved the movie for me. They were pretty good.

Fighter navigator Chris Burnett wants out: he was looking for something more than the boring recon missions he's been flying. He finds himself flying the lone Christmas day mission over war-torn Bosnia. But when he talks pilot Stackhouse into flying slightly off-course to check out an interesting target, the two get shot down. Burnett is soon alone, trying to outrun a pursuing army, while commanding officer Reigert finds his rescue operation hamstrung by politics, forcing Burnett to run far out of his way.
