Act of Valor (2012)
7/10
Good action sequences
18 April 2012
Starring Alex Veadov, Nestor Serrano and Roselyn Sanchez, Act of Valor depicts Navy Seals putting their lives on the line doing what they do. In this case, they go on a secret mission to stop a global threat. There are a lot of scenes with fighting. And it is well done using today;s technology.

The direction of Mike McCoy and Scott Waugh seems to work well given that there were two directors on board (who makes the final decisions?). Of course, they had a good script, written by Kurt Johnstad to work with.

Action movies have to have a solid story or at least an underlying story to keep me interested. Sometimes, if it is not the story, then it is the subject matter. In this case, it was about the Navy Seals. So it caught my interest enough for me to make the effort to watch this movie.

The story kept a watchable pace, and some may disagree with some characterizations, but all in all, the action was well done. They seemed very real compared to many other action movies .
