I don't do blood and gore, but this movie was the exception

Rating: 9/10 (5 June 2012)

I hardly ever watch war movies or ever violent movies at that, but this movie is just incredible. From the actors they chose to the music by none other than Hans Zimmer, this movie has it all and it is evidently one of my favorites. The acting is impeccable and the use of explosives for me was just over the top. Hands down, it makes my top ten list of movies I can watch again and again. The only thing that completely got to me was the blown up bodies and they still fought for life, it really tugged at my heart strings. This I felt was what made the movie for me, just seeing the full story of what happened 20+ years ago. It seems very accurate to what happened in 1993. And when seeing the names scrolling after the movie really brought it home for me, thank you to the men and women who fought in this battle, and died for our country.
