RottenTomatoes.com rounds up all the movie reviews on the net, and they have this one at 35% positive overall, but among the major recognized critics, it's 47% positive, about an even split. To check them all out, go to http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/TearsoftheSun-1120908/

I have a feeling that a lot of the negatives arise from the leftist, anti-military politics of the reviewers. I subscribe to Entertainment Weekly for the radio comedy service I write, but it galls me the way they constantly insert their liberal views and little digs at Bush and Republicans into stories that have no relation to politics. I think they just hang out with people who all "think" exactly the same way they do, and they are so used to being leftist a-holes, they don't even realize they're letting it pop up in their writing. They probably think, "I'm not making a political statement! I'm just saying what everyone thinks!" And obviously, their editors "think" the same way, because it always makes it into the magazine. They'd better be glad I'm not their editor, or my blue pencil and I would teach them a few basic journalism lessons PDQ.

...One of major reasons I cancelled my subscription with EW and gave a portion of it the Bible League. Also, their consistent Gay-fawning and praising of thug Rappers was more than I could stand.
