Movie Reviews of Toy Soldiers

Movie Review: Toy Soldiers
Summary: 4 Stars

Toy Soldiers is a great movie of a young kid who later plays Samwise on Lord of the Rings series and the great actor Louis Gossett Jr. A school for boys who consider themselves rejects, hard to control teenage boys, are taken over by terrorists and their brilliant actions subdue the terrorists. I like it.

Summary of Toy Soldiers

When an exclusive boarding school is taken hostage by south american terrorists the rebellious students risk their lives in a desperate deadly campaign to stop them. Studio: Sony Pictures Home Ent Release Date: 12/21/2004 Starring: Louis Gossett Jr Sean Astin Run time: 111 minutes Rating: R
Toy Soldiers is a slick dose of high-concept absurdity, and lots of fun if you don't think about it afterward. Adapted from a novel by William P. Kennedy, it's got the swift momentum that's a specialty of screenwriter David Koepp, whose later credits include Jurassic Park and Spider-Man. Matching Koepp's narrative energy is director and cowriter Daniel Petrie Jr., who wrote Beverly Hills Cop, and whose big-screen career stalled after this crowd-pleasing debut. The hokey plot involves a class of prep-school misfits (led by Sean Astin and Wil Wheaton) who use their rebellious ingenuity to foil Colombian terrorists who've taken over their school. The lead villain (Andrew Divoff) demands the return of his extradited drug-lord father (one of the prep students is the residing judge's son), and the inevitable showdown provides a heady mix of nonsense, graphic violence, and military muscle. It shouldn't work but it does, especially if you've got a tolerance for Die Hard clones that barely pass inspection. --Jeff Shannon
