Renegades is a badly written and mostly poorly acted action film about a special-ops team trying to retrieve hidden nazi gold from a war torn Bosnia on 1995. Apparently the nazis hid the gold in 1944 in a small town and the town was completely submerged in a man made lake. Fast forward fifty years and a special-ops team there on an unrelated mission finds out about the gold and decides to take it. Sounds interesting? Well it isn't.
Overall who ever wrote this drivel couldn't do any research about the actual war in Bosnia. The first mission is ridiculous as the team is there to kidnap a Serb general responsible for war crimes...which in reality, no one at the time knew anything about. The mission is covert and yet involves driving a stolen tank through the streets and over a bridge and under water for a bit. The fact that the wanted general has a compound surrounded by a whole army is also irrelevant since they decided to leave a whole side unguarded. The flags used in the beginning also didn't even exist until 2006. Oh, and lets not forget the protagonists having drinks in a bar in Bosnia even though the west never actually had ground troops there during the war. This would be as if there was a war movie made about British Commandoes who were chasing Nazi war criminals who used the flags of West Germany in Austria in 1938 before the war started.
Overall this was clearly written by someone who watched The Expendables, The A-Team, some war movies and mashed everything together creating a movie so disjointed and badly made it may cause heartburn to the viewers.
