Eye of the Eagle

About This Movie

Eye of the Eagle is this gritty action-thriller that captures the chaotic atmosphere of the Vietnam War. The film follows Sgt. Zack Skinner, a no-nonsense soldier, who's tasked with taking down a rogue group known as 'The Lost Command.' The pacing is relentless, with bursts of intense action that contrast against moments of eerie stillness, reflecting the tension of the era. Practical effects here really stand out, lending a raw edge to the violence that's often missing in more polished productions. The performances have a certain earnestness to them, especially from the lead, making the characters feel real amidst the madness. It's an interesting slice of '80s war cinema that doesn't hold back on the brutality and moral dilemmas of combat.
