Considering the release of the movie BlackHawk Down I have been doing some reading online.

Here are links to some reviews I found:
Table of Contents - Philladelphia Inquirer Origional Reporting
Additional Links from Inquirer.Philly.Com
PBS-Frontline: Ambush in Mogadishu
CIA factbook on Somalia
Blackhawk Down Movie website


 

 


Have any of you seen the movie Three Kings with George Clooney, Ice Cube, and Marky Mark? I was intrigued by the ads last year and saw the film at a dollar theater after it finished its run in the major outlets. I don't know if an adventure like that could have occured or not. Some of the issues were very interesting. If you've seen the film and have any comments you'd like to share, drop me a line.
I had intended to ask the question earlier but the release on video reminded me.

Here are links to some reviews I found:
Asylum
Salon
AOL
EW
