Guns, Choppers, Carnage!

Rating: 10/10 (19 January 2002)

First of all, I have not read the book. My mates wanted to see a Brit horror flick 'Long Time Dead', I wanted to see Black Hawk Down. I won the battle to see what movie to pick. After 144 minutes, I came out of the picture - SHOCKED! I'm shocked for to things. One of them is, the carnage and the second one is how great the film was!
Ridley Scott's Gladiator was great. But this was alot better! Josh Hartnett gave the performance of his career so far (I'm sure there will be more). Tom Sizemore was even better in Black Hawk Down than Saving Private Ryan (but not alot).
Any Good?
Anyone who do not like war films, might not like this. Anyway Black Hawk Down is a anti-war movie and in my opinion it's better than Saving Private Ryan and Platoon (I have not seen Apocalypse Now). Ridley Scott deverse the Best Director Award at the Oscars, now as for Best Picture, I think it does but Lord Of The Rings was excellent, so there will be a another war between The Lord Of The Rings and Black Hawk Down!
