Watched this yesturday...I have to say I expected it to be pretty shit but was plesantly surprissed. Its pretty good but I have to say that I don't really believe that this is the "real" true story as no other character apart from Bale's part (Diter) survives the adventure...

Re: Rescue Dawn...

watched this the other day too, it was ok but i dont know...i guess i just didnt like the way some of it was filmed and thought it could have been a bit more suspenseful / engaging, but it is based on a true story. like above, i dont know how much the real story differs from the movie though
