Featured review
On patrol, United Arab Emirates Armed Forces soldiers encounter Yemen forces along the road with an apparent broken truck. The Yemen soldiers ask them to check out 'activity', and so they head to the given location, which leads them through a canyon.
However, they are ambushed and exposed to heavy gunfire, trapping Ali, Bilal and Hindasi in their armoured vehicle. With the enemy surrounding them, they have to stay alive for at least an hour before the Quick Response team reach them. Their quest for survival has just begun, and the film takes us through their harrowing ordeal.
We also follow the Quick Response team's rescue efforts, as they, too, find themselves under attack from the enemy. 'The Ambush' is an action-packed thriller with non-stop action and suspense from beginning to end. It is an incredibly well made, realistic film with characters I cared about, and a truly evil villain. The film is based on actual events.
The film is beautifully photographed, with good cinematography and score. Oh, hell, wow, and are you ready for that emotional ending?! 'The Ambush' was an absolute blast!
