The gritty, disorienting, realistic combat of Black Hawk Down is perfectly exemplified when Mohamed Farrah Aidid’s militia come after the Delta Force squadron. The Delta Force troops are deployed to Mogadishu to capture Aidid, but Aidid’s men use all their firepower to try to stop them. Scott uses frenzied editing to capture the chaos of the battle, but also remains razor-focused on the soldiers’ perspective.
