The movie, “Behind Enemy Lines: Colombia” is a highly tension filled, politically charged military thriller, which looks into the perilous complications of our contemporary warfare and espionage. The movie takes the audience on a backdoor operation by the U.S. Navy SEALs into a Colombia jungle that is quite hostile and whose boundaries become obscured between enemies and allies in the process of peace negotiation, backstabbing, and low profile missions. The story is a masterpiece of blending high action scenes and a very complex storyline of intrigue and ethical uncertainty and uncertainty, so it is an engaging discussion of the interplay between politics and personal retaliation in war.
The most emotional moment was that the film captured the individual interest of the mission-the loss of family by Derricks and the pursuit of justice and truth in the world of lies that Macklin was seeking. Emotional intensity gives the action without interruption a deeper character and every firefight and close escape is desperate and significant. Performances are persuasive and the characters are motivated by loss, duty and their covert agendas. The action is kept at a close, and the cinematography is lively, bringing the audience close to the destruction of the jungles, the dark safe havens, and the disorderly fire fights of the hidden war.
In the end, the movie made me think about the destructive nature of betrayal and price of justice. The disclosure that the mission was orchestrated by the elite highlights the sad truth about the contemporary warfare in which the truth is usually sidelined by the political agenda. Behind Enemy Lines: Colombia is an action-ending, intellectually stimulating thriller that hits the adrenaline glands coupled with a startling point of view of backroom operations, and leaves the viewer with a texting chill of what lies in the shadows behind international warfare.
