Opening Rescue Scene | LAND OF BAD (2024) Russell Crowe, Movie CLIP HD

You can always tell when Hollywood does not use experienced military advisors.

I have no real world experience in the special ops arena, but something tells me that real tier 1 personnel don’t talk this kind of shit.

These guys stroll trough enemy terrain talking and joking like they’re in the park. That’s how you get killed.

This movie is so bad i was waiting for steven Segal to show up.

Walking and talking does not happen

So many gigs in the clip before they exit the aircraft. If 02 is required they would have donned their masks much earlier. If 3000 AGL was the initiation of the pull sequence and he fumbled with his pull handle like that, he would have been down to around 1500-1000 AGL and his Cyprus would have deployed his reserve. He could have also been the lowest under canopy and the rest of the team would have to fly their canopies to him. Chances are likely they would land way short of their intended landing zone. Also, the aircraft cabin would not be pressurized and no casual conversations would be taking place. Last but not least, the jumpmaster , or lack thereof, did not perform his duties.

As a veteran. This looks great but… I’ve walked point, and every other squad position… there isn’t any conversation on a march or an Op especially in enemy territory! You better be too far apart. There is noise discipline. Shut up and concentrate on your job!

HALO jumping from a helicopter? The writers must have overlooked the High Altitude part of the acronym

This is stupid. A JTAC is no joke, he’s not gonna go into this like a scare middle schooler at his first coed dance.

Never realized how much Russel Crowe and John Goodman look the same. I think I would pay good money to watch them switch parts in The Big Lebowski and Gladiator

I was only a Seabee. The most aggressive thing we did was security patrols. We never talked while on patrol. Hand signals only. Maybe an occasional close whisper. They're BSing like they're at the water cooler!

Practically any real operator would tell you how grateful they are for their JTACs.

Just a sidenote, An MQ-9 Reaper can carry more than 2 AGM hellfires and more than 1 BLU-118/GBU. You can even watch another scene where the other wing has another loadout of two hellfires and one GBU. A little detail that they missed but it's hollywood.

Disappointed as it strayed from realism almost immediately. If it was a sterilized mission, they wouldn't have waited to tell him on the f-in plane for crying out loud. Second, they wouldn't have any doubt about a "rookie operator" because no operator is a rookie due to their intense training. Lastly, they wouldn't just throw in some newbie on a team without integrating him before hand. They're making this movie look like something comparable to if Rambo and Heartbreak Ridge had a baby. Very disappointing. I HATE movies like this. If you're going to go for over the top fictitious b.s., then SELL it as fictitious b.s., not some realistic reflection on operators, because it's not.

In Vietnam, my platoon was waiting to rendezvous with another platoon walking through the jungle. We could hear them walking [no one was talking] 20 minutes before they reached our position...

Entertaining movie, but with details that can make even someone who has been out of the Army since 1989 groan. There is one scene with a Blackhawk landing at an LZ. Depending on the camera angle, it switches between a Huey and a Blackhawk. I thought there was an OpFor Huey that made it to the LZ before the Blackhawk and was battling the Blackhawk when it arrived! Took me a while to realize that the Director either didn't know the difference or didn't care.

Russel, Russel, Russel. What have you done to yourself? You blew up!

Tats for just this moment. That is top tier douchary.

Gravy SEALS

Am I high or does the guy at 8:42 not have a magazine in his gun?
