Great Film

Rating: 9/10 (3 February 2002)

A war started by CNN (hunger) and ended by CNN (soldiers dragged). I've heard some critizism about the amount of gunfire in this movie. Imagine how it was for the soldiers and Somalias who were in the battle. At least the audience can munch on Milk Duds, while the bullets wiz past. This is a great example of soldiers not having proper support for the missions they are expected to carry out. I guess Vietnam proved nothing. I was impressed on how the Rangers and Delta Force were portrayed. This followed documentaries I've seen pretty well. Although, the movie didn't mention that all of Durants crew survived the crash. Only problem with this movie is how visually dark the images are. I thought the theater was messed up, but ads proved that they needed a little more light exposure while filming.
