A good film for those who understand it

Rating: Null/10 (15 August 2002)

I'll keep my review short and sweet. A whole lot of you seem to have misunderstood what BHD is as a movie, based on the reviews I'm reading here. Some of you expected some message to be conveyed by this movie, like a lesson in life or whatever. That wasn't the purpose of this movie. BHD is a step-by-step retelling of the Mogadishu (sp? too lazy to check) incident which involved U.S. Delta Force / Rangers on a near-botched mission against the thousands of warring-Somalians. It's simple as that. I wasn't expecting to leave the theater completely enlightened (unlike Platoon which is one the true WAR films), but I did learn more about the events that went on there and for me, that's good enough.
7/10
