I just saw this movie last night and I thought it rocked. I don't remember the incident so I don't know how accurate the movie is but it still kicked butt!

What's it rated?
I heard that when it was showed, there were certain groups of people that cheered when the Blackhawk was down.
Ah well. Is it a tearjerker? I'm really avoiding those at all costs lately...

Definitely Rated R. If you saw Saving Private Ryan, just take the last battle at the bridge (from Saving Private Ryan) and sort of stretch it out for about 2 hours and you have that level of violence for that long of a time frame. If you haven't seen it it is very violent with lots of shooting and several graphic kill shots.
Those guys have real cojones to go into places like that and try and pull it off. My hats off to Everyone in the US Armed Forces.

Angie do not watch it. It is too close to home. It though is amazing what a well trained fighting force can do against overwhelming odds.
It is no wonder why the American military is the best in the world

Wow~I am amazed someone understands! I was made fun of by people because I couldn't watch Private Ryan--because it was just too personal.
No one has evah understood that before!
Too cool. Thanks for the heads up!
