A movie with a videogame style.

Rating: 4/10 (9 April 2002)

Extremely boring and inefficient war drama about a urban conflict in the streets of Mogadicio, capital of Somalia in the early nineties. The movie despises any real story line and concentrates its power (if you can say so!) just in fierce battle scenes, explosions, gore and some preposterous moments of friendship between the soldiers just in the old way of American movies of this genre. Mr. Scott, who made some good movies before (Duelists,The and Blade Runner) seems to be rendered by the spell of the video games. It's a pity that when you are in a cinema you could not have a joystick in your hands!. So, it'll be a good idea if somebody say that for Mr. Scott. I give this a 4 (four).
