This film should be required viewing for military leaders, hawkish politicians, or anyone else thinking of going to war. Whatever can go wrong usually does.
2001 film directed by Ridley Scott stars Josh Hartnett, Ewan McGregor, and Tom Sizemore.
Small U.S. force in Somalia tries to apprehend a small group of insugents in what is supposed to be a quick and easy foray. But all hell breaks loose when they are met by a large, organized group of Somalis.
Follows the courageous team of soldiers who are determined to not leave anyone behind.
Intense war flick with realistic effects. Unlike many war films the characters here seem real, not contrived. Great sound.
Scary, suspenseful, and long, but worth it.
