Apache Warrior

Every 10 years or so, you come across this jaw dropping production that sticks with you for days to follow. This is the mother of all those (given you take any interest in the overall ubject of warfare and particularly combat aircraft, of course).

I had some idea what I was going to see as I am familiar with the Apache. You get the feeling of almost being in the cockpit as they are zooming only feet over the ground headed into enemy territory. All the footage is actual footage - no recreations. Everything got super real for me when that first bullet hit that helo and they were like "What was that?" What came next I wasn't really ready for but it made me give even more respect than which I already had for these Apache crews. Not to get political, but I don't know how any American can watch what I just watched, then still have the gall to kneel during our National Anthem. It's truly dispicable.

This was a great doc that was edited well and has all the real players involved with actual footage.

Not really worth the time to give it, a mission that was poorly planned and executed by a first world army taken on on by a third world one.

In the "where are they now" ending, institution is misspelled.

Using video and audio from a real mission, Apache Warrior sends you on a thrilling journey following a US military helicopter gunship mission into Iraq. The pilots and crew guide you through the story using interviews and actual footage. The story is interesting and gripping for the 90 mins of runtime. Well done for a well constructed documentary that has plenty of drama on the way. It will also make you appreciate what these airman/women actually do. Well recommended.
