	Black Hawk Down (2001) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		While the reviews for Black Hawk Down have on average ranged from "Good to Excellent," there has been persistent and growing criticism over the lack of clearly drawn out characters that the audience could connect with, the lack of historical context, and the fact that movie is all action, with no heart, with no point-of-view.
		As far as I am concerned there was plenty of emotion in Black Hawk Down, plenty of "choke-up" moments, or moments when I was moved by the unbelievable courage shown by the soldiers as they faced an almost hopeless situation.
		Black Hawk Down is a great movie, and it is an important movie.

	Black Hawk Down Review
		Black Hawk Down, both the book by Mark Bowden and Ridley Scott's film adaptation, is a cautionary tale about the power of the modern military, about what it can and cannot do.
		Black Hawk Down, the game by Novalogic, is none of these things.
		It doesn't play in Black Hawk Down with the passing of only ten years, especially at a time when members of the 10th Mountain Division, the Army Rangers, and Delta Force are fighting and dying.
