Ya, I saw it. Not bad, but it's more of a story, you know? Like the movie had a plot, and it just happened to revolve around the fighting. It's not a movie that's really about war. That, and the ending was cheesy.
I did want to beat that UN guys ass at the end of the movie. Hell, at the beginning too. I hated him. Wait until this comes out of video.
But for Black Hawk Down, you must go see it! I've really only heard one real (non I'm a *****) complaint, and that was it was made for Hollywood. See you have like 5 characters that the movie really revolves around, and because of that, they changed things so they were in places that they actually weren't. They also added some fighting that never took place.
Still, that was a remark from the wife of one of the Rangers. To us, we wouldn't even know. Also, the movie doesn't give background information on the characters as much. I was able to piuece a lot of things together because I've read the book. The guy typing, the guy who took the armor plate out of his back, the guy who decided for the first time not to wear ear plugs, and the African safari. Made so much more sense.
They also do a great job showing you the differences between the Rangers and Deltas. Great movie, in the end. Must go see it!
