    "49" doesn't quite make the grade as a military action thriller. The core concept of rescuing hostages held by a terrorist group, in this case ISIS, is not unfamiliar. It starts out well, building a credible back story but then undermines its credibility, with a gun play, fight scene, that's poorly choreographed and wholly unbelievable. The rest of the film feels a little lacklustre thereafter, as any sense of realism is gone. Its a shame too, as the acting is convincing, as is the narrative, core premise and sets. In summary, a fundamentally limited watch, that would have been better off focusing on espionage and stealth, rather than trying to "go Rambo".
