Movie Review
Grade: A-
Producer Jerry Bruckheimer, Josh Hartnett, and Tom Sizemore reunite in Black Hawk Down, a much better and much more accurate portrayal than 2001's other war movie. Read the full movie review

ewww...and wow..., by Crystal Pratt

It's not what I expected, in other words it kind of sucks and it's so boring I expected better. To be honest the only reason I bought the movie is because Orlando Bloom is or should I say was in it. The Dummest part was/is when Orlando Bloom died. I mean what kind of moron director would make Orlando's character as someone who dies? He's too hot to die.
