Where To Watch Black Hawk Down

Black Hawk Down is a gritty 2001 war drama directed by Ridley Scott, based on journalist Mark Bowden's 1999 nonfiction book about the 1993 Battle of Mogadishu. The story follows a group of U.S. Army Rangers and Delta Force soldiers whose mission in Mogadishu, Somalia, quickly turns into a desperate fight for survival after two Black Hawk helicopters are shot down. Josh Hartnett plays Staff Sergeant Matt Eversmann, while Ewan McGregor portrays Specialist John Grimes, Eric Bana plays the legendary Delta Force soldier Hoot, and Tom Sizemore plays Lieutenant Colonel Danny McKnight. The large ensemble also includes William Fichtner, Ewen Bremner, Sam Shepard, Jason Isaacs, Orlando Bloom, Hugh Dancy and Ron Eldard. Rather than focusing on one conventional hero, the film follows multiple soldiers and units as they attempt to rescue their comrades and survive the increasingly chaotic battle.
