The Mission: A Naval aviator shot down behind enemy lines in Bosnia must escape with his life to expose a Serbian general's ethnic cleansing program.
The Briefing: The war in the former Yugoslavia is one of the most bitter conflicts of the modern era, with feuding ethnic and sociopolitical groups struggling for a bomb-wasted stretch of grim, gray land. It's an awesome backdrop for this non-stop action flick, which pulls no punches in its portrayal of the myriad atrocities perpetrated by the Serbs.
Owen Wilson shines in a rare serious role as the heroic Lt. Chris Burnett, doing whatever it takes to get a hard drive containing photographs of the massacre scene to his superiors, even at the possible cost of his own life, and Gene Hackman does his ol' reliable thing as his superior officer.
