OK the movie Airborne is really not as bad as people make it out to be. Granted it is not cinematic heaven but for basically the age group that it is made for its pretty good. the movie came out when i was 11 years old so at that time i thought it was a great movie. now if i was to sit and watch it now i probably would think it was a really corny movie. at the time though i thought that shane mcdermott was hot so the movie was very appealing. he really wasn't the best actor but at 11 i wasn't really critiquing the acting, i just watched a lot of movies if i thought the lead guy was hot. if you are over the age of 15 this movie is probably not going to appeal to you but if you are younger then you might like the rollerblading scenes and the fact that there is a cute male lead. also seth green is in it and he can always save a movie with his comedic performance.

I think that Toy Soldiers is an excellent movie. It's one of the only movies that, aside from some well known actors, has an unknown cast that can actually act. In my opinion, the plot is captivating. It keeps your attention without having an outrageous story that couldn't possibly happen in real life. I think that everyone would enjoy this movie. Sean Astin always seems to pick the perfect movies to be in that showcase his talent. He's very underrated and doesn't get the recognition that he deserves. Other movies that he has been in other actors have been in the spotlight but this movie and Rudy really showcase him because he is the main character in both. I hope that he someday gets the accolades he deserves for his acting. If you want to see a great movie you need to check this one out and if you are a Sean Astin fan you will definitely like this movie.
