Uncommon Valor Reviews & Ratings

Average viewer score of 6.3/10 from 227 ratings.

Lloyd

9/10

Overall, Uncommon Valor (UV) is a less-flashy atypical Hollywood movie of ex-soldiers being reunited to form a team to rescue Vietnam POWs, using good (but not Oscar quality) humor, and decent near-realistic (but not memorable) special effects to tell a 2-part story of forming a rescue team which then performs their mission. Decades after UV was produced, one could say that it's just another run-of-the-mill movie…
