About this movie

Battle-scarred and disillusioned by the war, Corporal Chris Merriman is put in charge of a unit whose next mission is to resupply a remote outpost on the edge of Taliban-controlled territory. While driving through the hostile Helmand province, a Navy SEAL flags down their convoy and enlists the unit on an operation of international importance: they must help an Afghan woman, famous for her defiance of the Taliban, escape the country. Without tanks or air support, Merriman and his team will need all the courage and firepower they can muster to fight their way across the war-torn country and shepherd the woman to safety. Intense and action-packed, Jarhead 2: Field of Fire stars Stephen Lang (Avatar), Esai Morales (Criminal Minds), Cole Hauser (Olympus Has Fallen), and Bokeem Woodbine (Riddick).

Ratings and reviews

There were so many opportunities to take a vehicle and drive to where they wanted to go, it seems beyond belief that they wouldn't have done that. Why didn't the seal team have a pre-designated evac location, or wear encrypted or secure transponders? Why didn't they have satellite phones, or portable short wave radio? Why wasn't the 'package' given a vest to wear? Why didn't they go over and take out the guy with the video camera? Why didn't the cop go do that? A movie is always disappointing if you can pick holes in the plot, so this must have been a movie for teenagers.

Nothing like the first one, I think everyone would probably be dead at the first ambush, just more gung-ho hollywood fairy tales.

Should of given it a different name, horrible sequel. Nothing to do with the first one.
