No wonder Harris agreed to portray the role. Script was brilliant. Cast was utterly incredible. Crew, props, costuming, lighting, music, and everything else... ALSO outstanding. It's a wonder how this was ever a "Michael Bay" film at all. Seriously... it's *WEIRD*. Like some strange anomaly that it came out so well.

He’s an anti-villain - his heart was in the right place, but he did a lot of bad for a honorable outcome, which ended up costing him his life by people directly under his command. He was a hero, and a sympathetic one, at that. However, holding innocent civilians hostage, and using pilfered biological weapons to threaten the deaths of thousands make him the villain of the story. General Howell is an effective villain, because he truly believes he is the hero, and just like you, makes YOU believe he is one in his own right.

Yeah, he was an antagonist, but not a villain. The fact that later in the movie we learn he never had any intent to actually use the weapons, that it was all a bluff, cements that.

General Hummel reminds me of the Marine officer back in Sept 2021 who called out his leadership to be held accountable for leaving behind BILLIONS OF DOLLARS behind of modern U.S. weapons for the taliban to take. Reason he did that was because we Marines are held accountable for our actions so how is congress any different?

The issue is that they don't want precedents. Even if Hummel keep his words and let everyone go, what is stopping other crazy generals from other branches from kidnapping civilians and demanding money in the future. While Hummel is genuinely good and honorable man, the moment he starts publicly kidnapping people and threatening to gas the city, he becomes a legal terrorist at that point.

the moment when general hummel took alcatraz, together Dr. Cox and Tuco, gettin put to places by james bond and Randall memphis

I do not condone his crimes. But General Hummel is an honorable man trying to do the right thing by the men he has led. It is hard for civilians to understand the bonds of those who have served in the military where life and death for the country they served is very real. And to be forgotten when they gave their last true measure in the line of duty. You can see why he did what he had done.

"These men died for their country & they weren't even given a goddam burial. This situation is unacceptable"... In light of Russia's 'Special Military Operation' (aka *invasion*) in Ukraine, that statement is practically 'prophetic' on account of hearing about bodies of Russian combatants left to rot where they fell. So I can easily imagine a situation like this with some Russian general playing out in a well known landmark building, like Alcatraz, but in a Russian city like Moscow, St Petersburg etc .But, after all said & done with that situation in Ukraine, there will be one distinct difference.
