Review of Black Hawk Down (2001) by Matt G — 14 Mar 2018
This is one of MANY violent, speechifying war films that spawned from the rubble of success that was Saving Private Ryan. But with great visuals and a refreshingly simple story, it stands above many of the others.
Overarching stories and complex war themes? Not really. Instead, it's just wall-to-wall excitement and drama, with a seemingly endless cast of cusp-of-stardom young actors. Not particularly memorable, but not a failure either.
