    I personally wouldn't go as far to say that Black Hawk Down goes into even my top 20... don't get me wrong, it's a well made film and I really liked it, but I read the book first and served with a couple of guys who were there (one with the 10th the other with 75th Rangers) and they both said that the movie made some very inexcusable mistakes... 1) They portrayed the Rangers to be like ordinary infantry, 2) They made it look like the UN (Pakistan) saved them in the morning when in reality it was mostly the 10th Mountain boys that saved the day. Plus the movie didn't really stay all that true to history. But I still think it's an overall great movie.
