(2001)
Director: John Moore
Starring: Owen Wilson, Gene Hackman, Joaquim De Almeida, David Keith, Olek Krupa
our comment. "O.K. so Americans love their country, we get it!"
On a reconnaissance flight over Eastern Europe, disillusioned naval pilot Chris Burnett and his partner, Stackhouse photograph a scene thet we're not meant to see. When their plane is shot down and Stackhouse is quickly captured and executed, Burnett must struggle to survive in unfamiliar hostile territory with a cold-blooded assassin and hundreds of enemy troops on his heels. Meanwhile, on an American battleship in the Adriatic Sea, Burnett's Commanding officer, Admiral Reigert attempts to negotiate his soldier's return amidst tense political and military maneuvers.

Behind enemy lines is laughably inept at best and shamefully infuriating at worst.
