black hawk down

[s_curry23]

Any Army Rangers out there who were involved in the conflict in Somalia, primarily in Mogadishu. Do you think that the movie Black Hawk Down did a good job of recreating that event? Or do you think it was unaccurate and didn't fully do a quailty job?

My cousin was an Army Ranger and had some of his ranger friends in the whole Black Hawk Down episode. I watched it with him and he said the screwed up a bunch but it was pretty close to being accurate. Also if you wanted to know if it was accurate you could read the book. That is what happened. It might be missing some little things but it is as close to the whole episode that you're going to get. But when they make movies out of books. You have to know thet're going to screw things up somehow.
