Read the book recently and saw the film. Surprisingly little 'Hollywood-isation' for a major blockbuster but one scene they missed out, that of a cow carrying militiamen being rinced by a minigun, was sadly missed! Also, I think the film failed to point out the concious decision made by the Rangers to begin firing into the crowds of somali, some women and children, to remove the gunmen among them. Gripping stuff nevertheless.
I wouldn't reccomend that Puma pilot with a possible posting coming up see it!
