Please end my life now

Sometimes I wonder how a movie gets made and what the process is from writer to theatre. Nothing has ever made me question this process more than this movie. I used to think Mystery Men was the worst movie ever made, but then Dude Where's My Car came out and took over that title. Now Extreme Ops has the honor of being the worst movie I have ever seen. There is no plot. The dialogue, when there is any, is written so poorly it made me want to go back to high school and retake all my english classes. I would say the "acting" was bad, but I truly believe that the "actors" really are just that awful, so there was really no acting involved. The action scenes were decent sometimes, but then I start to think that maybe because everything else was so bad, that it just made the action look that much better. The person who convinced the studio to make this movie needs to get some kind of award for pulling the best con job in the history of bad movies. Now I'm going to take my belt and shoelaces off because I'm putting myself on volunteer suicide watch.

You are dumbest pertson ever. Extreme Ops was awsome and at the same time it was Flossy and even a little hurt! When you put those six togethtr you win and you win a good movie! Extreme Ops also had an awsome plot. The dogs chasing and the skate on the train. That equals awsome Plot and awsome Plot equals awsome movie! Sao dont say it was NOT and when it reas was not NOT. X Ops was posiblityy the swetiest and hard core movie i seen in the life of Foley. Brian agrees and so does Kevin-- Brian is my Brian and Kevin is nevermind. Anyways I love it with the missle making the explosion and the snowboarding off the roof (SO REAL) I love it! Extreme Ops Rul;es!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And i am in Love..., Not with LAura the waitres in MAine but witha special girl... But thats besides the point the point is Spicy, flossy, and hurt and sometimes cold and when thos combine it equals devastation in the box office... THank you for your time

Ooh...I totally loved this movie. It's way better than triple x...Extreme Ops is funny, interesting and has great actors in it! I'd buy 10 copies just for the hell of it!!

Not to say that XXX was a ground breaking Oscar worthy film, but it was by far better than Extreme Ops. This sleeper miss should have been slept on by both the director and the actors. The funniest part of this movie is that they want you to believe all of the stunts are real. This film was full of actors who have been watching their careers slide further and further into the land of B flicks and Lifetime Channel Made for TV movies. I'd wouldn't sell 10 copies of it to you...not even one.

This movie was WORSE!!!!

1.) The german actor Klaus Löwitsch ( acting the serbian leader ) alway take
part in intelligent movies, not in Kindergarden-movies like this...

2.) The plot was as dumb as potatoe salad
-> nobody of the snow board crazy guys saw them, but however SHOOT THEM
SHOOT THEM...
-> hotel isn´t completely built yet, important to have a working jacuzzi

3.) Action scenes: Do you remember the swedish "Pipi Longstocking" movies from
the 60th?? Is was reminded when I saw the avalanche scene at the end and
the railway surfing

Sorry, my english isn´t this good to express my feelings about this movie, let´s express it easy, the producers also could throw the money away or transfer it to my bankaccount...

Skating on the train and being chased by dogs were not the plot. Definition of the word "plot": The pattern of events or main story in a narrative or drama.
A plan; a purpose. Intrigue; stratagem; conspiracy; cabal; combination; contrivance.

As you can see, the only evidence of a "plot" in this movie is the brief bit about the terrorists ... which is so pathetically short it might as well not be there at all. That's not to say the action sequences aren't great fun. I thoroughly enjoyed the film for those bits (although, I admit, I enjoyed it primarily for the scenes with Rufus Sewell). The acting wasn't grotesque, except perhaps for Rupert Graves' on-again-off-again American accent. Still don't understand why the directors felt the need to make him American. ANYway ...

Overall, a really poor excuse for a movie, but a guilty pleasure nonetheless. Especially if you enjoy a little trip down a mountain.

Much more crappy than XXX: Lost in Space, Ghost Ship, Wild Wild west...

Yugoslav? Serbian war criminal? Why not North Korea? What a fu*king stupid plot!!! Dud American!!!

[–] Randomhero12132 20 years ago

well the movie was made to get a bigger fan base for extreme skiing and snowboarding.... which im sure it did. The plot of the serbian militant and his whole plan was just throw in there ot fill the seats. I think i liked this movie more than XXX maybe due to the fact that i snowboard. PLUS KITTIE ( JANA PALLASKE) IS REALLY REALLY HOT .... THATS THE MAIN REASON I WATCHED THE MOVIE A SECOND TIME.
