I'm starting to get a little bit tired of people I know talking about "Act of Valor" like it's the most realistic war movie ever, just because it stars active-duty Navy SEALs. There are way too many obvious instances where the movie sacrifices realism for entertainment. Apparently, people truly believe that a movie made with cooperation from DoD and the SEAL teams would never dare abstain from being 100% realistic all the time. After all, if the military supports it, their goal must be accuracy, rather than duping teenage boys into enlisting.

Honestly, if I hadn't known that "Act of Valor" starred real SEALs, it would have seemed like a pretty average military-themed action movie to me.
