What can I say about this movie? Maybe the question should be, what can't I. I saw this movie for the first time two days ago, and now I rank it as one of my favorites. Come on...haven't we all had that same daydream of saving our school and friends from bad guys. Well...at least I have. This movie may not be a 'Thinking Person' movie. But sometimes, you need a movie that doesn't really require you to think. This one is definitely one of them. It is just a fun movie and I love it. I feel it was terribly underrated. The cast was excellent and Sean Astin did an excellent job and this only cemented his place as my favorite actor. If you want a movie that is a pleasure to watch. One that is great from start to finish...then this is your movie. Two thumbs up. Five Stars. A Classic.

I just love Sean Astin & he should have been awarded for his work on this film. I've been looking for this film on DVD for a long time! Thanks, Amazon. Also,after watching Return of the King, recently released, He really deserved an Oscar for his portrayal of Sam!!!!!!!

I own this movie on dvd and absolutley love it. I first saw it on t.v. and couldn't stop watching it. I looked everywhere for the movie and couldn't find it so I had to order it online. It was worth getting and sean astin and the other actors are very good and has great action. If you haven't seen this movie SEE IT!

The critics may not have liked Toy Soldiers but I actually think it's a pretty good movie and I really enjoyed watching it. This movie has a great cast including Sean Astin and Wil Wheaton and Louis Gossett Jr. and this movie is jam packed with a lot of action and is a very entertaining movie! Highly recommend to fans of action movies!

i love this movie. but watching only begs the question, where is keith coogan now? and why hasn't he made any more movies? and most importantly, why did two of his best movies include the word "babysitter" in them? i also have to ask myself, what the hell happened to wil wheaton? i know, i know, he's got that internet blog now. have you seen his last few movies? perhaps it's better that keith coogan is out of site. but i'll tell you what, my friends, he's not out of mind.

those two contribute to my favorite scene in this movie. keith coogan sneezes and wil wheaton comes out and says, gazoontite. watch it, if only for that scene.

most of all, i guess i just think about sean astin and i'm glad he's got lord of the rings now. because as ridiculous as this movie is, and believe me i do love it, sean astin is such an underrated actor. he's seriously really good.

This is a terrific movie that I would recommend to anyone, unless you're offended by tons of cursing and graphic violence. Sean Astin does not seem the type to be a bad guy, but he is SO amazing in this movie. I was afraid I wouldn't like this movie, but I watched it because Sean Astin is my favorite actor. And I'm super glad I did! You will not regret watching this movie! :)

This is absolutely the best film in history. Don't pay any attention to what the editorial reviewer said. It isn't nonsense at all. It was well constructed, well written, well thought out, and realistic. Sean Astin is an awesome actor. Did he get an Oscar for this? I hope he did because he deserved it as well as the rest of the cast, Keith Coogan, Wil Wheaton, and Louis Gassett. I remember watching this on tv years ago. I finally bought it on DVD at the mall. That was the only place I could find it. It was 20 bucks but well worth it. I bought it 3 days ago and I already watched it four times. It's intense, dramatic, sad, touching, thrilling, entertaining, funny, scary, unpredictable, and realistic. The reason why it was so realistic is because the military helped out in the making of this film. And in the movie nothing went perfect. I don't want to give it away for those who havent seen it. If you havent seen it you're really missing out. I highly recommend picking it up. It doesnt seem like it was made it 91. It's one of the best actions films ever made. It's intelligent and one of a kind. I don't think they have it for rent anymore. I hate when good movies aren't appreciated or remembered. It never got the recognition it deserved. This film is truly unforgettable and my movie collection is nothing without it.

You know what ticks me off. Is the fact that this movie is really good and it cant be found anywhere. I tried renting it at Blockbuster and they didnt have it. I tried four other movie places and they didnt have it either! I use to watch this years ago and there isnt anything else like it out there. I hate it when good things are underappreciated and forgotton about. I havent seen it in years and I would like to. It says it's out of stock on this site. Of course!
