Waters főhadnagy (Bruce Willis) az elit kommandó katonája, akit Nigériába küldenek, hogy segítsen kimenekíteni az ott ragadt amerikai állampolgárokat. De attól kezdve, hogy megérkezik, minden átalakul. Kendricks doktornő (Monica Bellucci) ugyanis nem hajlandó elhagyni azokat a védenceit, akik nem követhetik Amerikába. Ráveszi a vonakodó katonát, hogy tagadja meg a parancsot, és egy titkos ösvényen kísérje őket Kamerunba. Út közben egy férfi is csatlakozik hozzájuk, akiről hamarosan kiderül, hogy a lázadók milíciája üldözi. (RTL Klub)

A film legnagyobb problémája, hogy úgy tesz, mintha mély dráma lenne, amely az afrikai dzsungel kemény, valós eseményeit tükrözi. És bár igazán naturalisztikusan ábrázolja azokat (régen szorult már össze ennyire a gyomrom!), az amerikai patetizmussal és Bruce Willis sztárarcával kombinálva hiteltelennek hat. A Nap könnyei film színtiszta akciófilmnek is tekinthető, ami ennél több akar lenni, de a lassú és unalmas forgatókönyv miatt akciófilmként sem jó.

At the beginning it drags on slowly and the only thing that looked any good is the surrounding jungle and Bruce Willis in camouflage kit holding a machine gun. The African jungle seemed to be asleep all the time. Where are the snakes, the spiders and other critters that could make this group’s journey a little more unpleasant? Take a look at Rescue Dawn and you’ll see what I mean. It’s all so artificial. Tears of the Sun tries to touch us with humanity and good deeds by hard guys who until now behaved like robots. And the only thing that Fuqua gave to this movie are lens filters, amazing views of African nature and a solid action ending which digs this picture up from the gray average. 3

Too simple, flat, and in the second half also hardly believable, but Fuqua knows when the limit of pathos is exhausted and thankfully keeps the tough soldiers in check and avoids playing a hysterical drama about the redemption of hearts and the desire to help the innocent at the cost of one's own life – it can indeed be done without the drama. It is a pity for the unbelievably constructed action scenes at the end. Besides the excellent performance by Willis, the cleansing of the village and especially the portrayal of the military unit are good – their communication, behavior, actions. In one of the few war films where emphasis is placed on these attributes and it all looks highly realistic.

Fugua can deliver, but here he struggles with a lousy script and half-baked dialogue. Really, the only worthwhile thing in this film is the scene of the ethnic cleansing in a Nigerian village, which is both excellently shot and makes the ignorant realise that Africa is a world where human life has no value. If the rest had been in a similar vein, this would have been a great anti-war film. As it is, it's just another useless Hollywood crap that's dull in thought, with not much action either, and a typically Hollywood clichéd ending. So, sorry, this didn’t work out.

A lot of angry Willis, unbearably wooden Monika, jungle, shots, dust, and injustice. To top it off, one big and very unbelievable twist against orders, sometimes annoying cliches, and an annoyingly optimistic message that hurts. Everything in the packaging of Zimmer's surprisingly tired composition and big black-and-white peace propaganda. I occasionally quite like Antoine Fuqua, but the claim that he can direct empty pictures well has never been more true.
