Top Critics' Reviews
Fresh: Director Roger Spottiswode, after a couple of earlier actioners, has great potential.
Fresh: This is the kind of movie that almost always feels phony, but "Under Fire" feels real.
Fresh: A thrilling film, with a head, a heart, and muscle.
Fresh: Spottiswoode captures the random terror of the war zone, the press corps's acute journalistic instinct for story and survival, and the appalling moral dilemmas that reporters must confront.
