Review of Windtalkers (2002) by Tristan M — 11 Jun 2014
Adam Beach did a good job in a good movie, Flags of our Fathers, but Windtalkers was a waist of time. But what can you expect because it was directed by John Woo, the director of Mission Impossable! So you get what you expect, there is no thought in it, just the killing of mindless Japanese soldiers, huge explosions and bad acting.
The Japanese soldiers just run around to be shot up by the American heros, but at the same time they tried to make it anti war. But all they did was make war look easy, fun, and exciting. The scene were Adam Beach dresses up as a Japanese soldiers to use the radio! Is this a joke this isn't the 1960s where all movie had it this is the 21st century! And it features the most obvious stock footage ever when the American fleet open fire! This movie was so bad I don't even know how the describe it.
Just hipfiring Thompsons, infinite ammo and killing countless Japanese. The whole point of the movie, the Navajo code talkers is barley mentioned, its all just Nicolas Cage being a fantasy hero. Watch Flags of our Fathers.
