Description

From acclaimed director Ridley Scott (Gladiator, Hannibal) and renowned producer Jerry Bruckheimer (Pearl Harbor, Armageddon) comes a gripping true story about bravery, camaradarie and the complex reality of war. Black Hawk Down stars an exceptional cast including Josh Hartnett (Pearl Harbor), Ewan McGregor (Moulin Rouge!), Tom Sizemore (Saving Private Ryan), Eric Bana (Chopper), William Fichtner (The Perfect Storm), Ewen Bremner (Snatch) and Sam Shepard (All The Pretty Horses). In 1993, an elite group of American Rangers and Delta Force soldiers are sent to Somalia on a critical mission to capture a violent warlord whose corrupt regime has lead to the starvation of hundreds of thousands of Somalis. When the mission goes terribly wrong, the men find themselves outnumbered and literally fighting for their lives.

    6x combat vet and this is one of the few that gets it right. I also served with one of the guys in the raid that’s still on active duty in special ops. Must see to truly understand modern warfare.

    I thought BLACK HAWK DOWN was amazing, but please add more Special Features and the Extended Version as part of iTunes Extras. Why isn’t the Extended Version of the movie part of the iTunes Extras? This is really annoying to me when the Special Features appear on the Home Video releases of movies, but not on iTunes because technology is advancing everyday.

    Black Hawk Down is the very medium of entertainment, violence and descent character development. The movie has flaws but with writter/director Ridley Scott who directed Alien and Gladitaor, Black Hawk Down is entertaining, lead by a supporting good cast and overall it's true event telling is over the top and it reedems itself to be a Ridley Scott overture.
  • Great movie

    Forever great! There should be regulations for Hollywood to pay a portion of proceeds from war movies to veterans.
