Politics

Rating: Null/10 (22 August 2010)

I watched the movie. I was profoundly moved by it. Yes, the movie is one sided. It is not a dispassionate history from all sides of what occurred. I do agree with the article that pops up when the limit is hated. The background is not complete in all of its complexity. I do not understand this review.
"Like all the films the British-born director Ridley Scott has made, it is gripping, intense and beautifully shot. It is also a stunning misrepresentation of what happened in Somalia." I have no problem with the criticism of the background as presented in the movie. I do not understand a criticism of a film that is "is gripping, intense and beautifully shot" because "It is also a stunning misrepresentation of what happened in Somalia." The film is not about what happened in Somalia as described in the review. It is not about the background, it is about what happened in Mogadishu on two specific days of October. It is not about whether the soldiers should have been there. It is about what happened when they were.
