Rating: 9/10 (10 June 2003)

What do you want,, a love story? A little political intervention? typical UK'er
This movie was about a battle, a big screw up by the US forces and that alone. This is none of these things because this is not what happened. Yes there is some fiction (i.e. was no Grimes Ewen Mgregor's character etc etc) included in the movie and character molding of a few into one. However this movie does justice to what happened and to those who fought and died with heroic actions. It all happened so fast and there was no time to think once the first Black Hawk went down. They did not have air support other than the other copters. There was no fantasy ending or happiness. It is just a 2 hour movie about a much publicized battle. they technically could have made another movie just on Michael Durant alone.
I think ridley Scott did a magnificent job portraying what went down In october of 1993. Listening to actual Rangers and or Delta Force praise the actors and ridley Scott for what was done in this movie was a nice thing to see.
Definitely a must see and a top 10 favorite of mine
10/10
Peace all and God Bless
