If you are a war movie fan this one will not disappoint. I have to laugh at all these reviews criticising the weapons or army stripes not being accurate - guys let me elucidate for you; your average viewer would not know a sergeant stripe from an a-wipe you have to laugh at these reviews.... really???? - ITS ONLY A MOVIE! Who watches a movie and looks out for things like that is bizarre! I watch a movie to be immersed int he plot and story not to see if sergeant Maloney has the correct trigger on his AK-47 or how tight his army troosers are cmon, to rate a movie on this is nonsense and IMDB should remove these reviews as they are just plain fatuous!

Well what do we get for our shillings - Oodles of action, some decent cgi blood splatters and explosions but some terrible dialogue which made me cringe at times. It actually has a pretty decent cast and the acting was good which makes up another Jarhead movie;and as good as Jarhead 2 in my opinion.

The music though is rather Jarring (pardon the pun) and too loud for the soundtrack and it is clear they were trying in the later stages to go for a Black Hawk Down style ethnic Israeli music backtrack to accompany the action which was better than the overbearing rap and rock & roll in the first half.

All in all its actually an above average terrorist war movie so if you are a war movie fanatic like me give it a try as it will not disappoint so gets a fair 6/10 from me.

I really enjoyed the movie from an entertainment perspective but as a former Marine, I almost screamed out loud a few times.

First, whoever produced the movie needed a Marine on set and in the writer's room. A Marine wouldn't refer to his team as "soldiers." Second, generals do NOT wear stripes on their upper arms. There is a FOUR star General wearing Gunny stripes. Third, .50 caliber rounds from an M2 machine gun do NOT leave little holes in a head when shot. Fourth, if you have a machine gun or three AND a grenade launcher, you should use them in combat.

Aside from the above though, I really liked the movie. Good story. It shows sacrifice for mission. All in all, I would want it again, AND I would NOT have walked out of a movie theater pissed if I had paid to see this.

The first Jarhead was actually pretty good - this was not. So much unnecessary propaganda. The "action" scenes.......I've seen better attempts at a paintball arena. The acting was wooden, stiff, boring - just so bland - like none of the "actors" actually wanted to be there. The lack of military knowledge is a joke to anyone that has served - a Call of Duty video game gets more right this. The soundtrack and audio effects are too loud, just ear torture - the sound is so loud it turns tinny and distorted - hard to sit through. I do see the usual sea of fake reviews on here, believe them if you have an I.Q less than 7 but do yourself a favor, watch the original instead and not this cheap cash-in using the Jarhead name.
