No arguing the excellent work of the movie`s battle scene yet somehow, it still pales in comparason to `Saving Private Ryan`.

Absolutely amazing. I am not the type of person to sit through a war movie, but this one was well worth it. I`m completely hooked. A must see!!

I think that movie is good @really very good.

Almost a typical "war" movie, however you kind of wondered what the whole operation was about. Once the Helecopter went down the story of the movie shifted which was not interesting at all. If you are asking why did I see it then, because the whole idea of war is a common theme these days. Definitely a rental, but I would not buy this movie. 4.5 stars an average? Not in these books.

I thought it was the best movie ever.it was as good as Pearl Harbour and i cried in that movie every time i see the ending where josh hartnett (the hottie) died. this movie was all out blood guts and gore and i like these kinds of movies.I gave it a ten out of ten. p.s. Josh Hartnett is soooooooooooooooooooooooooo incredibly hot!!!!!

Only see this movie if you love war movies. 20 minutes on plot development and 2 hours of a war scene! A little much for my stomach to handle

Black Hawk Down was very well done, giving a realistic perspective of what it would be like for a US soldier to be in that situation. But it fails because of what was missing. The movie was portrayed entirely from the US perspective, and not at all from the Somali perspective. The only Somalis who had a chance to speak were a) the arms dealer, who was a stereotyped bad guy, and b) the officer who interrogated the captured American, and whose viewpoint was that war is the Somali way of life. Call that a Somali perspective? I certainly don`t. How about the thousand Somalis who ran into American bullets, like lemmings going off a cliff. T

This was a great film. but i wasent sure about the guns. Thay just did not look very real to me. im sorry i just was not going to buy into this whole war thing. not with guns like that. i expected better from the makers of the film.

I like the part when the big gorrila hit the planes out of the sky.

Listen: don`t expect Hollywood to tell the truth about a particular battle. To tell us EXACTLY what happened. To tell us EXACTLY the events, THE POLITICAL events, that led up to the battle. To tell us EXACTLY what US politicians, solidiers and intelligence officers actually did their or prior to and during any war. That`s not hollywood`s job. Hollywood is there to entertain me and you. It has done it with this film. It has shown you, in an ENTERTAINING way, a fictionalized account of a real battle. Having said all this, I enjoyed the film. -- TOIKEOIKE

Arriving with good intentions, their carefully planned mission took an unexpected turn resulting in the U.S. military`s single biggest firefight since Vietnam.
January 25, 2002
it was pretty good....i dunno which was better tho...pearl harbor or this...

Always Hollywood movies try to discriminate Muslims arround the world.

Amazing movie, unlike most Military/War movie that has some chessy love plot, this one throws you right into the action and the emotions and the bonding of men in the line of fire! Worth the money!
January 25, 2002
This movie looks like the best. I`ve heard it is better than Enemy at the Gates and Saving Private Ryan combined. Say something after I see it TONITE!

Shows the best and worst of humanity. The depiction of the posthumous Medal of Honor recipients, who gave their lives to protect a colleague, should make everyone who is ambivalent toward those in the military think twice. For those complaining about it being plotless and difficult to follow, welcome to war. No plan survives contact with the enemy.

As a Soldier, I think it was an accurate depiction of the battle of Mogadishu. Enlightening to the plight of those soldiers.

Best Movie EVAR!!!
January 25, 2002
I thought it was a GREAT movie ! Makes you think about how much we should appreciate the army, navy etc etc ..... we just have no idea how brave, courageous and unselfish these men and women really are ! I had tears in my eyes throughout the movie as this was based on an actual event and it`s funny how we take advantage of the simplier things in life ...........and we have these people ......who are essetially giving us the rights to live our lives ............THANK YOU !!

Hey i was watching that show "Counter-Spin" and 2/4 people were against it. They said it was 100% propaganda, when in fact it was FACTUAL! Not only did the writer of the book do research beyond bleif but the actors met their characters. kinda funy if you think of it, on e guy on the show said "You see what this silly american director does? he makes propaganda film to glorify the govt." THE DIRECTOR IS ENGLISH! Get YOUR priorities straight, you know? well thats my 2 cents!

"i have a question to anyone who knows the answer, the guy who was the american spy, who wore those shades and was picked up by the chopper at the start wit his bike ,does anyone know his name? it would b much appreciated" Hi, i already answered this question, the guys name is Eric Bana, hes gonna play the hulk, he acts as a delta force Intelligence. hope i got what you wanted!

This movie is way better than Pearl Harbour!!!! It was so GOOD! There`s nothing else to say but this movie is really GOOD!
January 24, 2002
I`Ve never seen such a good movie nor i`ve ever seen any worse!
January 24, 2002
This is the best movie almost as good as Pearol Harbour. I love Josh Hartnett. I think hes soooooooooooooooo hot!!! I love you Josh Hartnett!! *~*Love Reanna8*~*
January 24, 2002
a Great movie! Ridley Scott has truly out done himself in this.
January 24, 2002
Nothing amazing.. why does everyone think this is so good? At the end of the movie it should just say: "join the army".
January 24, 2002
Besides "Lord of the Rings" this is by far the best and most influential movie of the year!!! I liked it even better than SAving Private Ryan. (Sorry Steven)
January 23, 2002
Awesome Movie! This is the first time the Somalia story has been told and it`s entirely accurate! Drop what you`re doing and go see it!
January 23, 2002
real life heros needs a respect for whom pay it with the highest price that a human can pay.
January 23, 2002
its a must see movie. lots of blood guts and josh hartnett but its not a movie to see if you don`t like war all together......
January 22, 2002
This movie, was amazing. and is a must see, the actors were amazing, and havin josh harnett in it was a plus!!
January 22, 2002
Very realistic...or how i imagine it would be...INTENSE!
January 22, 2002
Great movie, very real depiction of war. Only sad thing was that the Somali`s aren`t depicted as human beings considering 1000 died that day for the 19 Americans....
January 22, 2002
i think that black hawk down is wicked because of the guns and action
January 22, 2002
I think this movie is a "MUST-SEE" for anyone that is into movies that has action, and deals with war. I thought it was well done in an attempt to remake an event that happened a while back. The writers got pretty much all the facts and figures right. I plan to watch it at least 3 times. thats how good it was. and rarely is there a movie that ever gets my attention to watch it that many time in the movie theatre...
