At first, I couldn't get into it because it seemed like a minimal plot, glorified video game of a movie. Then, around the halfway point, I gave up on trying to take it seriously and it ended up being a lot of gory fun. The guy who played Mad Dog was a pretty great villain, despite having pretty much no distinguishing character whatsoever (he's just a psychotic thug whose body is a lethal weapon).

Holy shit, it was fantastic. Great humor, crazy plot, excellent cinematography and Simon Pegg is perfect in the lead role. I'd give it an 8.5/10.

Oh, so you were taking it seriously... yeah, I can see how you wouldn't like it if you were expecting an Orson Welles flick. Next time you find yourself thinking "I don't wanna think too much today, just entertain me", give it another chance.

Don't find that kind of 'so bad it's good' entertaining any more. The older I get the less time I have for things that aren't really good.

Meh. I wanna be entertained when I'm watching a movie or TV series... to me, "good" means fast-paced, at least a little on the bloody side, with some boobs every once in a while.

I have a difficult relationship with Ridley Scott films, he made my all time favourite film Blade Runner, but I tend to dislike most of the films he makes. Black Hawk Down seems like his second best work to me, though I still have problems with it. It is rather long but it carries it off because of the frenetic pace. The pace, combined with me having trouble distinguishing between the characters, makes it rather confusing. But somehow that makes it more immersive, and I assume a more realistic experience of what it would be like to experience combat.
I think it is probably one of the best war films of recent years, but I have a problem with how one sided it is. Perhaps now Ridley seems to spend his time rehashing his old works, he could make another film from the other sides point of view.
