Tears of the Sun
Loyal veteran Navy S.E.A.L. Lt. A.K. Waters is sent into the heart of war-torn Africa on a hazardous mission to lead his team into the Nigerian jungle in order to rescue Dr. Lena Hendricks, a U.S. citizen who runs a missionary and will only join them if they agree to save 70 refugees too.

...an unapologetic paean to the nobility of the American foot solider.

... Fuqua relies on old-fashioned, gung-ho heroics and the stern face of Bruce Willis to carry the show.

The movie regales us with the heroics of a (mostly) white American platoon picking off anonymous black savages.

A tale of courage so facile and off-handedly racist that only Hollywood could have invented it. It confuses slaughter with action, and it's stupid, too.

This Black Hawk Down theft is a trial by cliché.

A huge screaming bore of a war flick with a big plate of pretentiousness on the side.

Will a thinking audience really buy the image of helpless, grateful people bestowing kisses and victory songs upon Willis as the representative of all things American: power, guts, compassion?

In a movie with so much graphic suffering by innocent Africans, it's a bit disconcerting that so much loving attention is paid to Bruce Willis's anguished mug.

Shamelessly one-sided with cheesy wooden dialogue.

Fuqua ... can stage action, but he can't save a trivializing, reactionary script featuring a Hollywood star (read America) as a global savior.

Deserves the bad reviews and the lackluster earnings it has accumulated thus far.
