This is the true story of the most highly decorated British patrol since the Boer war: an eight man SAS team inserted behind Iraqi lines during the Gulf War in January 1991. Their mission was to take out the scud missiles which Saddam Hussein was using to terrorize his enemies, as well as to sever strategic communication lines between Baghdad and North West Iraq. This top secret mission was called "Bravo Two Zero" and it was commanded by Sergeant Andy McNab. Of the eight who went out, only five returned. Dropped into "scud alley" carrying 210-pound packs, McNab and his men soon found themselves surrounded by Saddam's army. Their radios didn't work; the weather was brutally cold. And they had been spotted.

| Internet ReviewsSteve RhodesIt's a great story but only a mediocre movie. It's too bad these valiant soldiers didn't get the motion picture that they deserved. |
| User ReviewTørin Ébased on Andy McNab's book of his experience in Iraq during an SAS patrol. a brutal, visceral and human story of comeraderie, courage and professionalism against insurmountable odds. It's the SAS, behind enemy lines, against an entire army. My money's on the SAS any day. |
| User ReviewFrances HI value what I learned from viewing this movie. I have recommended this viewing to several of my cadre for their viewing and insights. Of course there's the Hollywood side but the facts are as they are Bravo 2 ZERO was a real mission and the people in these movie where portraying the real people of Bravo 2 Zero both the living and the KIA |
| User ReviewNikki BAmazing story...Sean Bean was excellent as usual. |
| User ReviewShanade MI think this film is brilliant, but thats because im army mad. so some bits did p*** me off though cus they're just not believeable |
| User Reviewmike tBased on actual events of Andy Mcnab and his team of SAS soldiers, who are dropped behind enemy lines in Iraq in January 1991 to take out Saddam Hussein's scud missiles. Only 5 out of the 8 returned home. Amazing film, with fantastic performances from all, especially Sean Bean. |
| User ReviewChris SReal view of a war situation, none of this Hollywood crap. British SAS go behind enemy lines to gather intel, but things go from bad to worse. |
| User ReviewLammy !I like war movies, so this just adds to my list of favorite war movies. It kind of reminds me of Black Hawk Down, but there's not much of a similarity there...just makes me think of it. |
| User ReviewK J ESean Bean is extraordinary in this film about a British SAS patrol caught behind enemy lines. Based upon actual events which occurred during the Gulf War in 1991 this film is a tribute to the men who served in the unit whose call sign was Bravo Two Zero. This has to be one of the best war films ever made. Without all the Hollywood embellishment, the film focus is on the men on the ground. This is their story of survival in a war zone. A must see for any military movie buff. |
| User ReviewEric WAwesome book and realistic adaption. Really love this movie, can watch it over and over |
