Hounds of War is a somewhat better than average B grade military action flick. Its suggestion that the US is complicit in terrorism, is rather boldly honest but any claim the political establishment in that country has recognised this shortcoming or moved to address it, is far fetched. Action in this film is reasonably well done. Lots of gun play and polished fight scenes, keep this film rolling along. Frank Grillo is as likeable as ever and not a bad choice, for the lead in a film of this kind. In summary, Hounds of War meets the conventional action flick criteria and even manages to offer up a naive, if hopeful message, about the US's role in the world today. Certainly worth a look.
