awesome movie, kept me on the edge
Amazing Movie! It was great! The special effects were absolutley out of this world! Josh Hartnett is great...as always! Andrea-
Good attention to detail (like everyone sweating buckets even when standing still). Lots of action, at times too much as you are left feeling tired from all the adrenaline pumping. Good movie, though, telling a story that teaches hard earned lessons.
Black hawk down is a well done movie. They portrayed the environment of the war very good and it has a coherant summarization of the horrid event. One thing that`s best distinguish this war movie to the others is that there are not love scene involved in the film. I think love characters generally contradicts the purpose of making a war movie that supposedly describes the altruism behaviours of out heroes whom sacrifices themselves to protect their nations.
It`s an amazing movie with great summarization ofthe event. And the actions are as thrilling as saving private ryan. I would9recommend it to everyone. It is the best of the year!!!
Very good movie. Josh Harnett is hot. Too much blood.
It was such an awesome movie, much better than that crappy remake of "Pearl Harbour"(too much Josh Hartnet in both, I can`t see what anybody else see`s in him...he`s so darn ugly)
i like the fighting. much better then pearl harbour. but the plot was unclear and characters need more developing
Would recomend this movie to anyone who enjoys war movies. It`s right up there with "Saving private ryan"
I really liked Black Hawk Down because there was no love story it was just about the war. I also liked it because there was alot of fighting and blood and guts. The only reason i saw it was because Josh Hartnett was in it that was the best part.
Overall it was quite good. Would have liked a little more character development. Quite intense in many parts. Scary to think what our world is becoming!
good movie
Amazing movie. I went with my grandpa and we both really enjoyed. It wasm uch more accurate than that disgrace of a movie Pearl Harbour. I would encourage everybody over the age of fifteen to go see it. Very realistic with the fatigue and night factors. Awesome! 5 stars!
This movie was by FAR much better than Pearl Harbour. IT was intensely realistic and very interesting. For those of you who complain that it is too gory, then watch Pearl Harbour. War is not glorious. It is bloody, limbs get blown off and people die. They don`t die with a neat little holes in their bodies. Thats reality and if you don`t like it, i`d like to recomend Snow Dogs to you.
It was all good except, the audience didn`t really get to know the characters and there should of been more of Josh Hartnett
Amazing MOVIE. IT got Everything u can ever one with a war action movie. IT got AMAZING gun fight scene, wicked special effect, And a Execenlent Story. It kept my attention on the movie thought the 3 hour and i still find it goinging by Extreamly fast
great movie...very realistic...i would watch it again...though i was falling asleep at the end, but that was because i was twist...
KICK BUT! the most intense action you`ll ever exeperience
Absolutely Riviting. As horrible as you can imagine from the portrayal in the film, I`m sure it was worse for those actually there. Another briliant Movie based on reality.
This film was not written or produced by SOMALIANS. Hollywood studios are AMERICAN. Theatres in north AMERICA are AMERICAN owned [for the most part] So why do you find it hard to believe BlackHawkDown doesn`t analyze the SOMALIAN point of view??? -- TOIKEOIKE
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
I think that this movie was really good!!
awesome, partial unrealistic fighting but o well, thats wut you get to make something interesting, gore and blood (not something you take your wife or girlfriend too lol)
Great MoVie
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
What an amazing movie! Heartfelt,and emotional, with a witty humor, and steller perfomances by all. It`s a movie I will definately by when it comes out. Great Job!!!
omg! this movie was the bomb! it was such a good movie! the actors were great! Josh Hartnett is really hot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! it`s better than Saving Private Ryan! This soooooo deserves an oscar! i hope they keep making good movies like this one is a must see!
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.
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!
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!!!
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!
I`Ve never seen such a good movie nor i`ve ever seen any worse!
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*~*
a Great movie! Ridley Scott has truly out done himself in this.
