Original Title: The Dogs Of War
Genge: Action,Adventure,Drama
Jamie Shannon is a soldier of fortune -- a mercenary who will stage a coup or a revolution for the right price. He is hired by British mining interests to scout out Zangaro, a small African nation with rich mineral deposits but a brutal and xenophobic dictatorship. Arrested soon after his arrival, Shannon is imprisoned as a spy, badly beaten, and tortured. While in prison he meets one of the country's leading intellectuals, Dr. Okoye, also imprisoned by the regime. Eventually released, he returns to London and is subsequently offered to opportunity to secretly invade Zangaro's capital and lead a military coup. Shannon accepts, but quietly has his own agenda to pursue.
An American mercenary executes a coup in a small African country designed to bring to power another dictator friendlier to a British multinational company. Not a remake of _The Wild Geese_ but another and more faithful adaptation of the novel 'The Dogs of War'.
Christopher Walken plays ruthless mercenary Jamie Shannon, who is hired by a British mining company to lead a revolution in an African nation to overthrow the dictator, so that they can install their own leader, who is friendly to their interests. Things go wrong and Shannon is captured and beaten, though manages to escape, and vows to return, seeking vengeance, though again this doesn't go as planned either...
Based on a novel By Frederick Forsyth, this adaptation falls short of his other two films("The Day Of The Jackal" & "The Odessa File"). Characters are unsympathetic, and action scenes are pretty routine, though the acting is fine, film is just mostly forgettable.
If your better half forced you to see The Notebook, there are only a few movies that will cure you of the dreaded "chick-flick" movie exposure infliction.
The Dogs of War is one of them. Take two viewings of this movie and call me in the morning (lol). Truly one of the best scripted and well filmed movies that any guy (or gal who is a fan of well done "modern flavoured" military films) would be proud to own.
I first saw this movie back in the early 80s and as soon as it was available to own on video, I snatched it up and it is still in my collection.
It demonstrates the kind of intelligence and thought one doesn't often find in a movie aimed at the action-adventure crowd. This is evident as much in what the film doesn't do and say as in what is actually seen on the screen.
Derek's sand coloured beret with a winged dagger badge denotes him as a member of the British Special Air Service (SAS). He is thought to be loosely based on John Peters, a former SAS soldier who served as a mercenary with 'Mad' Mike Hoare during his campaign in the Congo in the 1960s. Michel is a member of the French Foreign Legion parachute regiment, he is thought to be loosely based on famous French mercenary Bob Denard. It is unclear what Shannon and Drew's parent units were or if they were inspired by real life figures.
-In the opening scene in South America the team use CAR-15s, the carbine version of the US Army's M16 assault rifle. In Africa the mercenary force use Israeli Uzi 9mm submachineguns although a few of their troops also employ MAC-10 Ingrams. The also make good use of 66mm LAW (Light Anti-tank Weapon) rockets and Claymore mines whilst Derek seizes an M60 machinegun from the goverment troops and turns it against them. The iconic multi-shot grenade launcher they use is the XM-18
-Famous British mercenary 'Mad' Mike Hoare's attempted coup in the Seychelles strongly resembles the events in the 'Dogs of War'. Bob Denard's attempted coup in Benin is also similar. More remarkable is that it appears to have inspired an attempted coup by former Scots Guards and SAS soldier Simon Mann who led a force of South African mercenaries to overthrow of the dictatorship of oil rich Equatorial Guinea.
-In the book none of the mercenaries are American, Shannon is British, an Irish Unionist and ex-Royal Marine Commando who saw action in the Cyprus campaign. Rather than four mercenaries there are six including a South African and a German. Shannon is not captured and tortured during his initial reconaissance mission and instead of the subplot with the journalist the team find themselves in deadly conflict with a rival French mercenary. The weapons they use are very different and the process of obtaining them far longer and more convoluted. Shannon does not have a reconciliation with his ex-fiancee but instead has an affair with his employers' fashion model daughter. The character of Colonel Bobi is a far less impressive figure and in the end Shannon replaces him with an idealistic former African rebel leader for whom he has previously worked rather than the doctor. At the end of the book Shannon commits suicide as it is revealed that he has been suffering terminal lung cancer throughout the story.
