Yes, it’s all a bit cliche ridden and predictable, but at least there are characters here rather than just nameless faces. You’re mostly in control of US soldier Ronald Daniels, and spend most of your time with his crew: your best mate Robert Zussman is a cheeky but loveable wind-up merchant, your commanding officer William Pierson is the hard-nosed boss who never gives credit for your talents etc etc. The characters are likeable enough, which helps.
