    Default MOVIE: Siege at jadotville

    An Irish commander and his battalion of 150 men under siege by 3,000 Congolese troops.

    I intentionally didn't add any further detail to prevent spoilers.

    Great movie, not a boring moment, not really predictable.

    I noticed a huge amount of South African Landscape

    Hartebeespoort Dam, Krugersdorp Airport "Jack Tailor"

    A few South African actors.

    Not a bad job at all,

    Anyone else see some noticeable areas?

    For sure KK!! I wonder where the armorers sourced all those FAL's and Lee Enfield's from? That said......SA is a country rich in those particular firearms. Makes me jaloers!! But if that was from a single rental house......they are sitting on a lot of milsurp FAL's and Enfield's.

    I might have to scour our Netflix and see if it is still available in our region.....and if so, watch it again.

    Thanks to HireArms - great one Bruce.
    They actually have one of the original SMGs from the battle that came out of Zim with a lot of FALs and other stuff fairly recently.

    Can’t say I’ll watch it again but the story is what makes it worth while. I cannot imagine what I would have done in similar circumstances, those boys were truely brave and had more that just respect for the OC.
    It’s sad to this day how politics can make the best of us the least to satisfy their ends.
