Behind Enemy Lines: I didn't think I was going to like this movie, maybe thinking that made it so. Owen Wilson is the star, I don't care for him and his movies, this wasn't like the two movies with Will Ferrel that I like though I don't normally like him or his movies. Anyway this movie was about a navy pilot and navigator that get shot down behind enemy lines during the Bosnian war/incident. They did something they weren't supposed to do and consequently saw things that they weren't meant to see which caused the group occupying the area to try to kill them. The first half of this movie was like Top Gun with Owen Wilson instead of Tom Cruise (and no volleyball scene as was pointed out to me when I brought this up (I never said it was as good as Top Gun)). The second half was Owen Wilson running and trying not to get killed or shot. This movie was based on actual events and there were some rather graphic elements and hard things to watch. My biggest issue with this movie though may be due to my inability to see eye to eye with the military.
