One of the more interesting films of 2012, heralded as changing the face of the action movie, Act of Valour, directed by Mike McCoy, Scott Waugh the bandito brothers, and shot by Shane Hurlbut ASC (terminator salvation, using Canon Dslr and a bunch of really cool grip equipment, this is one to watch.
An unprecedented blend of real-life heroism and original filmmaking, Act of Valor stars a group of active-duty Navy SEALs in a powerful story of contemporary global anti-terrorism. Inspired by true events, the film combines stunning combat sequences, up-to-the minute battlefield technology and heart-pumping emotion for the ultimate action adventure. Act of Valor takes audiences deep into the secretive world of the most elite, highly trained group of warriors in the modern world. When the rescue of a kidnapped CIA operative leads to the discovery of a deadly terrorist plot against the U.S., a team of SEALs is dispatched on a worldwide manhunt. As the valiant men of Bandito Platoon race to stop a coordinated attack that could kill and wound thousands of American civilians, they must balance their commitment to country, team and their families back home.
oh they made this which is pretty sweet...
