English summary:
Men of War is a 1994 action film directed by Perry Lang, written by John Sayles, and revised by Ethan Reiff and Cyrus Voris. It stars Dolph Lundgren as Nick Gunar, a former Special Ops soldier who leads a group of mercenaries to a treasure island in the South China Sea.
Plot
Nick Gunar, an ex-soldier, is down and out in Chicago in a typically cold winter. When two men offer him a job on a tropical island, he reluctantly agrees and gathers together a group of soldier friends also down on their luck. They arrive in the Far East and come up against the evil Keefer, who was with Nick in Angola. He now owns the local police force and shows Nick and the others who's boss. Afterwards, Nick and his crew go to the island, which they find is occupied by peaceful natives—natives who the mercenaries are supposed to convince to abandon the island. Nick respects them, but there is friction caused by a few mercenaries who want to kill natives to persuade them to leave, or, alternatively, to get them to divulge where a suspected treasure might be. Nick stops them and finds out the "treasure" they are after is guano (which does have value in sufficient quantities). The two men paying the mercenaries intend to strip mine the island to get it, leaving the natives and their homes as casualties. The group divides up, with half wishing to finish the job for which they were paid, and the other half, led by Nick, wishing to protect the islanders. Nick hands the former group their pay and orders them to leave the island as he refuses to kill the natives to do the job.
Hungarian Summary:
Nick, az egykori zsoldoskatona új feladatra vállalkozik busás jutalom reményében. Két bányásztársaság vezetője kéri fel arra, hogy toborozzon magánhadsereget és repüljenek egy trópusi szigetre. Feladatuk: rábírni az őslakosságot arra, hogy adják fel földjüket és hagyják, hogy a társaság megkezdje a munkát. Nick röviddel érkezése után szemtanúja lesz annak, hogyan égetnek fel katonák békés falvakat. Rájön, hogy a vérontás tisztességtelen célokat szolgál, ezért meggondolja magát, és átáll a telepesek oldalára, hogy az ő jogaikért harcoljon.
