- Critics' reviews
-
-
"A beautifully filmed, scrupulously authentic but strangely evasive exercise in combat ultra-realism."
-
"A triumph of pure filmmaking, a pitiless, unrelenting, no-excuses war movie so thoroughly convincing it's frequently difficult to believe it is a staged re-creation."
-
"'Black Hawk' turns nightmare into great cinema."
-
"It takes its place on the very short list of the unforgettable movies about war and its ineradicable and immeasurable costs."
-
"Films like this are more useful than gung-ho capers like 'Behind Enemy Lines'. They help audiences understand and sympathize with the actual experiences of combat troops, instead of trivializing them into entertainments."
