ITEM DESCRIPTION
Smart casting and sensible plotting make
Behind Enemy Lines
an above-average military thriller. Perfectly timed to bolster patriotism, the film is partly set (during a hypothetical 'day after tomorrow') on the aircraft carrier U.S.S.
Carl Vinson
, which was on alert status in the Persian Gulf when this film was released. Proving his versatility as an unconventional movie star, Owen Wilson plays a navy navigator who is shot down over Bosnia during a reconnaissance mission. Pursued by rebel Serbian forces, Wilson must fight for survival while his commanding officer (Gene Hackman) plots a daredevil rescue. After a successful career in TV commercials, Irish director John Moore makes a promising feature debut on Slovakian locations, borrowing a few techniques from
Saving Private Ryan
while adding impressive flourishes of his own. The gung-ho ending's a foregone conclusion, but it works like a charm after the movie's exciting game of cat and mouse.
