Another thing this movie is 'missing' is the montage/video clips of 'fallen soldiers' accompanied by piano music at the end. It ends quite abruptly but briefly acknowledges those killed in a conflict for a few seconds out of around ten minutes total time at the beginning of the end credits. 8o |
Thnx GalaxyRG... but why didn't you put the Iraqi flag in the language field ? steggy no need for report ... just learn from history Who made Al Qaeda...? isis American Zionist made if you didn't realize that ... watch movie American Made (2017) Tom Cruise & you'll know what i mean guest 4968 not only Arabic ...but mixture of Arabic, Iraqi and Mosul dialect there are English & Persian & Spanish Subtitles |
Perhaps, Guest-2935, because the world isn't two bit. No one is good or bad, we all are both to some degree. |
This is in ARABIC! OK, if you speak Arabic I suppose but for everyone else it might be a struggle :-@ |
Enjoyed this immensely even though I didn't have the foggiest idea who who good guys and the bad guys were :D :-@ |
Fun fact the leader of ISIS was an israeli mossad operative named simon elliot. |
@guest 4564 that was proved to be bullshit from a false Snowdon report |
Isn't it a great world where everyone creates their own 'facts'? |
Wow, this is like Black Hawk Down on steroids. And unlike Black Hawk Down and every other one of this genre of movies it doesn't waste the first 30 minutes sat in some base passing around photos of the 'girl back home' :love No Siree, Mosul heads straight into the action and doesn't let up from the get go. Ace cinematography, that kind of roving style that make you feel that you are right in the heart of the action like a real player video game. (Hallmark take note :D ) And some fantastic drone footage of Mosul in the opening sequences. Even the shootings and explosions are done well. When a dude get shot even far in the distance you can see that he has sure as hell been taken out. No sloppy, slush crap, 'dead people' or weird far-out sequences, strange effects or dodgy colouring to contend with either. Even if like me you have never heard of Iraq, Syria, ISIS or whatever it is these dudes are all tearing each others guts out over this stands alone as a cracking war-zone shoot-up movie. It is not just all shooting and explosions there is also an intriguing story line. One scene and the storyline in part reminded me a bit of that other classic 'The Guns of Navarone'. Now, there is a movie we used to watch over and over again as kids and never got bored with it :P Hallmark has really stepped up their game on this one :D Scrub Hallmark, seems this was made by Netflix. :D A couple of technical points: Netflix doesn't appear to have dubbed this into English. No mention of an English dub at any rate in the closing credits. We can thank our lucky stars for that. Much better to listen to the original dialogue and watch the subtitles than listen to some crappy dubbing. And whatever the character says at the end is missing in the subtitles (quite a lot appears to be missing but not that you don't know what is going on) although I think we can guess. Picture quality is spot on, pin sharp, definitely 720p. Audio is spot on, those explosions and gunfire will rock your ears. Anyway, going to put this review to bed before it look like a refugee from IMDB :D Should have just typed 'good movie' and been done with it :D Recommended. :-@ |
