Man, I thought that released this crappy movie I have a DVD called MARINES. I got it from the $2 DVD Bin at Walmart. I thought it might be good enough to watch when there is no power and no cable TV. Well, I was wrong last hurricane season. I popped that thing in my Laptop and I watched the first five minutes. That's about it.

I have a feeling that this new movie. "The Marines" is the same wasted use of time crap that the first "MARINES" movie was.

a sign that its gonna be bad is in the trailer, when he is saluting some General and the first thing you notice is the Army cover he is wearing. Not a good sign.

I was dumb enough to watch the movie... The whole entire movie was retarded. The movie is geared more toward the ten year boy who wants to see things blow up.

My girlfriend told me to shut up because I was making way to many comments about how they represented the Marine Corps. But oh well, you gotta love Hollywood.

Not that I watch movies to begin with, but I knew there was a problem when he says in a trailer: "I'm an ex-Marine." All Marines know that you never refer to yourself as an "ex-Marine" -- you're simply a Marine who served for a certain time period.

Very true, AJ. "Once a Marine, always a Marine" according to pretty much every Marine I know. My friend drug me to see this stupid waste of money on Friday because she just "looooooooooooooooooooves John Cena" and didn't see how the movie could possibly suck since he was in it...Well even she admitted she was wrong. The story sucked, the acting was even worse, and the entire movie just made no sense. It looked like they threw it together in a month or two. If they'd thought things out a little more they would have either benched the whole production or made it a straight-to-DVD release.
