Customer Reviews of Black Hawk Down (UMD Mini For PSP)
Good movie This is a good movie and it tries to give us a good perspective of what the experience was like. I am not sure how much is acurate with the story but I do know it was a great film
Testament to the Courageous or to the Inept or Both?
Are there parallels with the Allies' recent incursion into Iraq and the subsequent occupation? That was one of the questions I asked myself from a military perspective when I recently watched this film again. The missions seem ill-defined in both cases. The military opposition is overwhelming to the point where conventional weaponry and tactics seem outmoded and ineffective to accomplish what thumbnail sketch of a mission there actually is.

>It often seems that moments of courage are a result of military expedience characterized simultaneously with a predilection of military ineptness. How a general could ever let his men enter a maze-like city surrounded by thousands of hostile inhabitants is beyond comprehension. Sam Shepard as that general exceeded the scope of his mission and his command putting his men in harm's way in broad daylight. Ridley Scott seems uniquely capable of ferreting out the military decisions that led to this debacle but places no blame. However, all the blame is up there on the screen if you choose to take note similar to the way Sam Shepard watches it on his TV monitor. Scott instead places the viewer into a 180-degree maelstrom of bullets, bombs, shrapnel, blood, sweat and tears. In 160 years of technology it is amazing how some of the images are reminiscent of the last stand at the Alamo. What has been learned in all those years? Every good war film needs a hero and Tom Sizemore gives the best performance as one hardened and dedicated officer. The most interesting shot in this film is where a tired and weary group of Americans finally emerge from the city covered in dirt, gunpowder, blood and grease and they are greeted by foreign United Nations troops wearing turbans. These UN fellows offer the Americans glasses of water served from silver trays with white linen napkins draped over their arms. So much for modern technology it would seem.

>One thing that is certain is the strength of the cast assembled for director Ridley Scott's film. The cast includes Ewan McGregor, Josh Hartnett, William Fichtner, Eric Bana, Jason Isaacs not to mention Sam Shepard and Tom Sizemore again. They are a strong ensemble of actors making this film very realistic and thought provoking.

>Imagine thousands of bullets and guns, gore, and tons of action, multiple it by 100 and it wont even come close to how awsome this movie is.
