a5c7b9f00b A DEA agent investigates the disappearance of a legendary Army ranger drill sergeant and several of his cadets during a training exercise gone severely awry.
Tom Hardy, an ex-Army Ranger turned DEA agent, is drawn into an ever-widening mystery surrounding the disappearance of the feared and often hated Sgt. Nathan West,wellseveral of his elite Special Forces trainees on what appears, at first, to have been a routine training exercise during a hurricane in the jungles of Panama. Only two survivors are found, Dunbar, and a badly wounded Kendall, the son of a high-profile Joint Chiefs of Staff official. Neither is willing to cooperate with Capt. Julia Osborne's investigation. So base commander Col. Bill Styles calls in ex-Ranger Hardy, an old friend and a persuasive interrogator. Osborne disapproves of Hardy who is on leave from the D.E.A. after having come under suspicion of accepting bribes from local drug traffickers. She is also uneasy when she learns that Hardy once trained under West and hates him almostpassionatelyhis current recruits. With time running out, Hardy and Osborne call a temporary, if uneasy, truce. Hardy cajoles a confession out of Dunbar, who claims that Sgt. West and the missing Rangers have been murdered and their bodies blown away by the hurricane. When they later interview Kendall, he confirms that the other Rangers and West are dead. But, in almost every other way, his story contradicts Dunbar's. What happened to West and his Ranger team? And what were they really doing out there in the jungle? As each layer reveals more lies and greater deceptions, Hardy and Osborne inch towards the horrible truth about the fate of the missing Rangers.
Gees, I hate it when the writer thinks he's smart but in the end he confuses him/her-self. I really did not like this movie. / Anders
Basic…well where do you begin with this? A Story so confusing I'm still figuring it out. To say the least I enjoyed watching the majority of this film. Good casting (Travolta, and Jackson - you don't really get any better), great setting and (to some degree) a good plot.<br/><br/>HOWEVER, this film let it self down in many ways. The plot started off really well, and had me on the edge of my seat in a lot of scenes. When the twists begin you are really engaged in the film and it keeps the audience guessing on how the story is supposed to unfold. Half way through the film, you have no idea who is telling the truth. Then it gets really interesting when Kendall dies and we get the hint that there is a bigger conspiracy going on. Up until this point I felt we were in for a great encore.<br/><br/>Then the film goes of tangent and becomes too convoluted. There were too many plot twists in the end and made the majority of the film seem wasted. What I enjoyed about the film had no relevance to its conclusion. Hardy had lost his character,did West, and the trick the writers tried to pull on the audience was cunning and too far beyond what the plot was capable of handling. <br/><br/>The sad thing is that the film had the potential to be a great one and MAYBE up there with the Usual Suspects of the world but the big wave just collapsed on itself in the end and it remains a missed opportunity to be something better.<br/><br/>Though I did enjoy watching it, unfortunately this is not a great film, and has room for massive improvements. I Still think Samuel L Jackson and Travolta are the best pair on screen! Only a 6 from me!
Basic essentially is a fun movie, surprise ending and all. To take it too seriously is to miss the point. Travolta is charming, his performance recapturing the old charisma.
In order to understand the drug operation in this movie, we must first take a look at the people involved:<br/><br/><ul><li>Vilmer: Supplied the drugs, named "Combat Cocktails", to soldiers suchMueller and Kendall. He was also running an operation with a partner, probably Colonel Styles, to smuggle cocaine in military shipments into the United States.</li></ul><br/><br/><ul><li>Kendall: Distributed drugs for Vilmer, and was supposedly hired by Col. Styles to kill Sgt. West.</li></ul><br/><br/><ul><li>Mueller: Distributed drugs for Vilmer, and was supposedly hired by Col. Styles to kill Sgt. West.</li></ul><br/><br/><ul><li>West: Found out about the drug operation 1 week prior to the events in the movie, and went to inform Col. Styles about the discovery. Because of Col. Styles' inaction and potential threat to his safety, Sgt. West arranged the training mission in order to preemptively eliminate Kendall and Mueller.</li></ul><br/><br/><ul><li>Col. Styles: Covered Vilmer's drug operation in order to make millions of dollars from the drug operation.</li></ul><br/><br/>Sgt. West found out that Vilmer was running a drug trafficking operation out of the hospital, and he also found out that Kendall and Mueller were involved in the operation. Not knowing that Col. Styles was involved in the operation, Sgt. West approached him to reveal the drug operation. After some time, the inaction of Col. Styles arose suspicion . Sgt West also suspected that Mueller and Kendall would be ordered to kill him. <br/><br/>Sgt. West then arranges the training exercise in order to confront or eliminate Mueller and Kendall. There is no definitive answer to this question, however there are several possibilities:<br/><br/>1. The Section 8 team needed conclusive proof that Col. Styles was behind the drug operation. So far, Sgt. West and Hardy probably only had suspicions.<br/><br/>2. Dunbar (Brian Van Holt) might have been sent back to base in order to create a cover story for the disappearance of the other team members.
