a5c7b9f00b During World War II when the Americans needed to find a secure method of communicating they devised a code using the Navajo language. So Navajos were recruited to become what they call code talkers. They would be assigned to a unit and would communicate with other units using the code so that even though the enemy could listen they couldn't understand what they were saying. And to insure that the code is protected men are assigned to protect it at all costs. One of these men is Joe Enders, a man who sustained an injury that can make him unfit for duty but he manages to avoid it and is told of his duty and that the man he is suppose to protect is Ben Yahzee. Initially there is tension but the two men learn to get along.
In the close quarters and brutal fighting of the World War II Pacific Theater, the U.S. Intelligence services desperately seek a fool-proof encryption code, immune to the code breakers of the Japanese. The answer is soon discovered in the ancient language of the Navajo. Enlisted into the Marine Corps are several "Windtalkers" who are deployed to frontline areas in the Pacific, to use their languagean impossible-to-crack secret code. A drawback, however, is that the U.S. military soon puts forth a directive that the Windtalkers must never be captured alive by the enemy, so additional Marines are assigned to make certain that this directive is carried out to the letter.
Is it an action film? Is it a war film? I think it's WARCTION!<br/><br/>I will join the majority here and vote this not only one of the worst WAR films of all time, but of the WORST films of all time. No plot, just many, many explosions. You WILL get a headache. Every bomb looks the same, from a grenade, to a satchel charge, to a mine, to a mortar shell, to bombs fired from off-shore battleships. Ridiculous! <br/><br/>Our Navajo Indian hero,Beach, has two expressions: stupid smirk and meditative séance eye rolling.<br/><br/>Endless moronic scenes made me wish the movie blew up in my DVD player- even fast forwarding through much of it, the film still felt 3 hours long. Why would such a perceived valuable soldier be sent on such small missions with such a high level of danger: what value would he provide? How is it possible the two of them always know the coordinates of where to radio for bombs even though they have no maps? <br/><br/>I actually laughed out loud when they got to the final portion of the island, and we see the closeup of the REALLY, REALLY BIG Japanese gun. Uh oh, the US is in trouble now! Other laughable scenes include the completely ridiculous decapitation and subsequent grenade toss, and the chocolate bar toss- both unforgettable for their complete stupidity.
Let me be harsh here. I ponder what went wrong inside John Woo's head when he made this stinkbomb? Has he finally succumbed to the big dollars of Hollywood, so much that he has the nerve to make movies like M:I2? Although Windtalkers is nowherebad, nonetheless its still a shallow exercise in style. I sat down with a couple of friends, and throughout the movie we were bombarded with nothing but the sounds of guns, explosions, and flying corpses. Never once the movie made me feel the destructive power of mankind's stupidity. Even though some war movies depicts a lot of violence, movies like Saving Private Ryan was never gratituous. Windtalkers - or John Woo - is more in love with explosions, slo-mo gunfights and painfully cliched dialogues than its purported subject. At the end, I asked myself "Where on earth were those noble Navajo Indians???" Like many people, the "subject" of the story drew me into buying a ticket. On the big screen, the Native Americans have rarely been portrayed correctly (which also can be said to many minorities living in the states). So I thought everyone will finally get to see them being heroic and brave, and Windtalkers does that to an extent, but not nearly enough. Alas their presence and contributions here were so numbed down, and instead we get too much of Nick Cage's character, (whose job here is to sell movie tickets) looking like a madman spraying bullets to no end. Why can't we get Windtalkers starring a real Navajo Indian anyway? The entire movie feels like a false advertisement to me.
Cage is superba hollowed-out, ferocious man of action chasing his demons recklessly with machine gun firing away.
During World War II, U.S. Marine Sergeants Joe Enders (<a href="/name/nm0000115/">Nicolas Cage</a>) and Pete "Oz" Anderson (<a href="/name/nm0000225/">Christian Slater</a>) are each assigned to protect two Navajo Indians, Privates Ben Yahzee (<a href="/name/nm0063440/">Adam Beach</a>) and Charlie Whitehorse (<a href="/name/nm0932194/">Roger Willie</a>) respectively, recruited for the sole purpose of using their native language in the western Pacific island of Saipanan impossible-to-crack encryption code. In reality, however, it is the code Enders and Anderson are assigned to protect at all cost, not the code-talkers. Although the story presented in the film is fiction, it is based on hundreds of Native Americans, referred tocode talkers, who used their native languages to transmit impossible-to-crack coded messages during the first and second World Wars. Yahzee manages to get a message to the flyboys, giving them the coordinates of the Japanese artillery. As they attempt to make a run for safety, they are both hit with gunfire. Figuring that they are about to be either killed or captured, Yahzee turns Enders' gun on himself and tells Enders to shoot himordered to protect the code, but Enders refuses. Instead, he carries Yahzee on his shoulders into the safety of a dugout. Suddenly, allied planes fly overhead and strike the Japanese shooting from the ridge. Yahzee notices the wound in Enders' chest and tries to comfort him. Enders admits that he didn't want to shoot Charlie and begins to recite the "Hail Mary"he dies. In the final scene, Yahzee and his family stand on the top of Point Mesa in Monument Valley. Yahzee places Enders' dogtags around his son's neck and tells him what a "brave warrior" Enders was. As Yahzee recites a Navajo prayer in Enders' honor, a text screen reads: "The Navajo Code was vital in the victory at Saipan and every major battle in the Pacific. The code was never broken."
