Violent and plotless

Rating: 1/10 (19 January 2002)

I saw Black Hawk Down yesterday and I thought that it was terrible. I sat through 2 1/2 hours of violence and gore. The movie reminded me of the first 20 minutes of Saving Private Ryan without any of the character development or plot of the rest of the movie. I completely understand that the movie is based on a true story, but some stories do not need to be made into movies and this is a perfect example of such a story in my opinion!
