Movie Overall Great, but Ending was Confusing

Rating: Null/10 (15 February 2002)

The movie was great I thought. Reading the book also helped in understanding more of the movie I thought. The only thing that I don't understand about the movie is at the end where it lists 19 names of killed soldiers. Everywhere else (the book, on CNN and The History Channel, and even the soundtrack) only lists 18 being killed that day Mogadishu, Somalia.
Granted certain aspects of the mission looked poorly planned, but don't things that turn ugly always look badly planned? General Garrison tried to plan the mission well and when it went bad who stood up like a man and took the blame for it. It is still a great movie about the lives of some very, very brave men who did their job's no matter what the cost, even when some knew that it would mean the ultimate sacrifice, their lives.
