"Hello? Hello?"

Rating: 9/10 (19 April 2003)

Ridley Scott puts us into battle with his bloody and gritty "Black Hawk Down". He effectively recreates the chaos and confusion of warfare. The danger of city fighting to both soldier and civilian is palpable.
Good movies have scenes that stick in my mind. A couple from "Black Hawk Down" include the US soldier grabbing a magazine from a dead militia man showing that American soldiers had their lives threatened and sometimes extinguished by weapons made in the USA. Another was when the troops were cheered as heroes just a few blocks away from where they were treated as the enemy.
Some interesting trivia from this movie:
Eric Bana is from Australia. Ewan McGregor is from Scotland. Jason Isaacs is from England. Ewen Bremner is from Scotland. Is Tom Hardy from England? Hugh Dancy is from England. Zeljko Ivanek is from Slovenia. Matthew Marsden is from the UK. Orlando Bloom is from England. Nikolaj Coster-Waldau is from Denmark. Kim Coates is from Canada. Ian Virgo moved to Wales as a child.
My summary is a bit of trivia too. Can you guess?
