I nearly give this movie another half a star more. But I'm really quite confused over the characters involved and also the non-stop surprises and the ending is good but after reading through, indeed there are plotholes and confusing.

It turns out that the Colonel and the doctor and the 2 other rangers are the baddies. John Travolta and the rest of the rangers who are "dead" and 1 of them who came back with a wounded and Samuel L.

Jackson are just part of the gang under John and they are call Section 8. They are just making this confusing and big plot to get the real deal. Which brings back to the confusing part - why risk such missions and do so many things when all they know is already there.

.. Connie Nielsen provides the eye candy. She is quite smart as well and she simply just got a big shock at the end of the movie upon finding out the whole big truth.
