Unfortunately, [Teague is] working from a cliche-choked, insensitive script.

Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
Director Teague does stage the action sequences with logic and clarity, though there isn`t much he can do with the dramatic passages.
The movie is full of macho swagger and unabashed hero-worship.
Navy Seals stands out among this summer's violence-oriented pictures as the only one that doesn't leave your brain feeling like mashed potatoes.
It's difficult to accept these trained SEALs as anything more than a species of Dirty Dozen.
