Time Out

An unsatisfactory mix of low-key heroics, buddy-buddy humour, and anti-war sentiment ..

Bat 21 belongs to Hackman and Glover, and director Markle has the good sense to let these two veterans take over the show.

It's smart, but not too smart, like a Chuck Norris movie if Chuck got a PhD.

"BAT*21" is the kind of lean, no-nonsense war film Hollywood used to make back before the subject became burdened with metaphysical insights.

"Bat 21" is an exciting thriller about survival. And it also manages to say something about the victims of war, and how distance makes the difference to the soldier.

Faithful adaptation of the book.

I was reminded of Hackman's comment in Night Moves that watching a Rohmer film was like watching paint dry - although in this case, it's more like watching blood coagulate.
