    A solid mid tier action film that knows exactly what it is and never strives to be anything more than entertaining. The action is well staged, the cast are fine and the script decent, it's the underwater scenes which impress. The heist itself is a nicely realised set piece,…

    Wieder mal ein Streifen, wo ich den ganzen Hass nicht so wirklich nachvollziehen kann. "Renegades - Mission of Honor" bietet eine eher ungewohnte Genrekombination aus Abenteuer, Krieg, Thriller, Taucher und Schatzsucher Filmchen. Sullivan Stapleton gibt den Anführer…

    This modern take on KELLY'S HEROES has two great things to offer: the opening action set piece involving a tank chase, and J. K. Simmons as commanding officer. The rest of the movie is pretty disposable, though. It almost seems that they've spent the vast majority of the…

    Sort of a modern take on KELLY'S HEROES, that fantastic 1970's war movie with Clint Eastwood, Telly Savalas and Donald Sutherland, where they go behind the enemy lines to steal whole bunch of German gold! AMERICAN RENEGADES is not a remake of that movie, or anything like…

    Дивився цей фільм переважно через Сіммонса, і, чесно, дуже шкода — очікування він не виправдав. Думав, що хоча б на тверду двійку витягне, але вийшло зовсім слабо.

    The bargin bin EuropaCorp-edition of Kelly's Heroes that prematurely blows its whole load in the opening tank drifting action scene and offers nothing else, but dull boredom and disposable filmmaking for 90 minutes. It's mind-boggling how this cost a reported 77 million to…

    Very silly and made about 25 years too late. Could have totally been a Canon pic (just place the action somewhere else, or don't, who cares). It's like a lighter Triple Frontier where Navy SEALS on leave decide to steal some gold. Dumb but has some fun moments and J.K.…

    Scene di awal-awal justru yang paling seru loh yaa, especially pas kejar-kejaran naik tank.

While not particularly inspired, memorable or suspenseful, the action here is impressively scaled, from a tank plunging off a bridge to helicopter stunts and all that diving activity. It may have been a bad investment, but technically first-rate American Renegades does put its considerable budgetary resources right up there onscreen.

The heist itself, shot mostly underwater, is actually lots of fun.
