Brief Summarization - 1993...Within the deep continent of Africa lies the dry and dieing city of somalia, An iron hearted warlord in control of the city, known as Mohamed Farrah Aidid has seized supply shipments of food resulting in the fatal starvation of 300,000 civilians and counting. The U.S military quickly prepares for action sending an elite group of american rangers and delta force soldiers to capture the warlord and bring back right order. When the soldiers arrive, plans backfire as the first chopper is shot down...Black Hawk Down, after the second helicopter is destroyed, the soldiers are ordered to go back for every wounded victim and leave no man behind... The men find them selves enormously outnumbered by the rival militia and find themselves relying on cooperation and instinct fighting only to survive and come back alive.

Geniously created giving movie viewers the rusty taste and images of war in their head. A dramatic movie which makes you realize how important it is to live your life. Imagine being a soldier but in the view of the movie, a mellow quiet sound of the soldiers own flesh tearing apart as everything else is silenty muted is what you would hear. The quality of the sound is just that amazing from the war screams to chopping rudders, to the gunblasts, every second of sound puts you in the action. The image quality and camera work are also other positive points in the movie showing how grizzly the wounds of terrified soldiers could be.

Final Thought - An action packed movie from start to finish showing off the work of the brave men which have served our country.
