BLACK HAWK AND THUMBS DOWN

Rating: 1/10 (11 November 2002)

If you like an endless barrage of bullets, explosions and bullets and bombings, than this is the movie for you. Sitting through it for over 2 hours adds up to a boring movie experience. If I want to watch that much gun action, I'll watch Vietnam documentaries. Even the documentaries show some bright scenery and variety once in a while. This snorer was one long burst of machine gun vollies. I expected alot of gun play, but this was every scene. At least put some variety into the various explosions and machine gun fire. Give some scenes with some dialgue, even if it isn't clever. I'm sure most people, especially the younger audience, thought the combat scenes were action packed. Every one is entitled to their opinion, but the theatre group I left with found this movie very boring. I give Black Hawk Down a big thumbs down.
