Any good?

Net Flix is fired up. Made in 1999, English.


I'm hoping...   it doesn't suck, as most films do.

Film is decent enough, Sean Bean is a pretty cool guy. I enjoyed the book a lot as an 11 year old, and it's still interesting to read.

That said, there are so many claims and counterclaims that have been made about the mission, that you really need to read other books like Chris Ryan's 'The one that got away', and 'The REAL Bravo Two Zero', which claims to expose some BS that those two may have written.

The scene where they engage the APCs in the desert is pretty damn awesome.  Good show.

It's good. Check out The One That Got Away, too.

Kind of a low budget movie.  Don't go in expecting some 100 million dollar hollywood production.  It's a good move though.

Yeah, read all the books and watch all the movies.  They are tell a pretty different story.  Bravo Two Zero was McNabs side of the story and makes him look awesome, Chris Ryans story makes it seem like everyone thought McNab was a jackass and that he should have aborted the mission (all the other teams on the same mission did) but he had them stay out because he was all about chasing medals and shit.

Book was good. Didn't know they did a movie. Gotta check it out. McNab's other book was not as good

Good movie. Defintely.  You'll be missing out if you skip it.  I was just referencing a line from that movie yesterday.  It's funny that you brought it up.
