Storyline
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. For the SAS, the Bravo Two Zero patrol has always been seen with mixed feelings. On one hand, its most famous ever action is a tale of remarkable endurance and heroism; on the other hand, only one of the eight-man patrol managed to escape death or capture (as told in The One That Got...

BBC Announcer: For Allied Forces in the Golf the preparation is over. The real battle, only days away. This relentless activity is a reminder that if final-hour diplomacy stumbles, then action against Iraq will be both certain and uncompromising. Saddam Hussein says it will be the mother of all battles. President Bush demanded that conflict must be swift and decisive.
President George H. W. Bush: This will not be another Vietnam. This will not be a protracted, drawn-out war.

Trivia
The rifle Andy McNab uses in the film is an M16A2 with an M203 40mm grenade launcher - in the British army only SAS are armed with US weaponry. See more »Quotes

This movie is amazing. The book was unbelievable and I strongly recommend that if you watch the movie, you read the book...or vice versa. The acting by Sean Bean is terrific. He captures the ruggedness and superhuman toughness Andy McNab displays in his novel (Bravo Two Zero) perfectly. This incredible story of the SAS and what the human body can do and withstand is a must for those interested in pursuing a career in Military Special Operations...this is what can happen if you are unlucky.
