Behind Enemy Lines
US Lieutenant Chris Burnett is a strong and intelligent marine officer but he will be exposed to a mission that looks dangerous and deadly. US naval officer Chris Burnett falls over one part of Bosnia under very difficult circumstances. At that moment, the lieutenant must fight for survival in that hostile land. He is tracked down by hostile soldiers, a killer tracker, and a ruthless Bosnian policeman, especially American soldiers. Chris tries to escape from enemy territory through many life-threatening attempts.

Action movie with intense peril and devastation.June 25, 2004
That's just one of many reasons why I'm reluctant to call Behind the Lines entertainment. Propaganda, MTV-style, might be closer to the truth.December 06, 2001
The only thing certain about Behind Enemy Lines is that Mr. Wilson is in it for the chance to work with Mr. Hackman, and Mr. Hackman is in it for the money.May 30, 2003
Behind Enemy Lines crosses into the ugly side of patriotism.November 30, 2001
Pro forma stuff, so much so that you start to wonder why no fetching femme resistance fighter materializes to help the Americans on the ground.December 08, 2001
An old-fashioned game of the cinematic cat-and-mouse, soldier-on-the-run variety.November 30, 2001
This baby comes equipped with all the bells and missiles. Given the standard-issue plot, it's about all it can be.December 03, 2001
A piece of junk.January 07, 2005
From its prosaic title to its convenient timeliness, this valentine to U.S. military guys hamstrung by officious NATO bureaucrats could hardly seem less promisingJanuary 30, 2003
Plays more like a recruitment video for the US military than any serious examination of conflict.November 06, 2002
The filmmakers do their best to distract us, but eventually it becomes hard to ignore that Behind Enemy Lines is one long chase sequence.July 18, 2003
A satisfying enough piece of giddy-up entertainment that raises a few passing questions about the American 'cowboy mentality' before ultimately deciding it's a lot more fun to simply eat your action movie cake than try to have it too.
