In the heart-pounding military thriller VALIANT ONE, a routine mission goes awry when a US army helicopter crashes deep within North Korean territory. Now, a team of non-combat tech specialists, led by Captain Edward Brockman (Chase Stokes), must navigate the hostile terrain and fend off North Korean forces as they desperately race to escort a civilian tech specialist across the treacherous Demilitarized Zone.

You know those Sam Fuller movies, like Big Red One? This is one of those.

Valiant One, not unlike its protagonist, moves briskly, but in the end, says little.

An unpretentious B-movie made with A-grade effort, Valiant One packs decent action and mostly sturdy drama into the tale of U.S. soldiers whose mission near the DMZ goes haywire and leaves them stranded in North Korea.

The action looks good, and if that’s all you want from a movie, it will probably be enough to sate your appetite. Unfortunately, beyond the most simplistic platitudes, the script is unlikely to draw in any but the most pro-military viewers.

Fairly engaging and pretty well done. Low budget, but well done.
