I like the fact that they actually hired iraqi actors for this and not any random arab, the iraqi accent makes it more real. gonna go watch this tonight.
They did a good job portraying the commander of this team, you can tell he really loved his men. He mourned the loss of every one of them as if they were a treasured son. One of the saddest parts of the movie was watching him lose so many of his brothers, and seeing him feel it every single time.
Horrible commander tho. in Situation like this he should be the rock in the storm keeping them calm and composed. If youre out there crying saying "fuck our luck" your team will be equally or more depressed.

@lalchhandama3805 So the US DID rearm the Iraqi military, but not with particularly advanced kit like Predator/Reaper UAV's. The ITAR requirements alone for a tech transfer at that level would have made it fairly unfeasible, but the very real world concern of Iranian influence having it flown to somewhere in Iran for study/reverse manufacture would have been sufficiently high as to scrub the State Dept approval for FMS (Thermal cameras tend to work a lot better at night in some regions due to incredibly high surface temperatures during the daytime.

I was in Mosul back in 2006. It was a beautiful city. The city also had the ancient ruins of Nineveh. Unfortunately, ISIS/DAESH destroyed the ruins and so much other history. It breaks my heart knowing the tragedy of Mosul and the diseased plague called ISIS.
Yea never liked any group destroying history but isis was created by Obama/US so have no one to blame but our corrupt government. Same thing in Syria, so much history destroyed by terrorists our government funds 🤦♂️.
@@hasnatquraishi1627 absolutely. Jonah (aka Yunus ibn Matta) traveled to normal l Nineveh to get the people to turn away from evil and back to God/Allah. He resisted and fled to the sea, only to be swallowed by a fish and spat back on the shore. He then submitted to Allah's Will and prophesied to the people of Nineveh. However, when the people turned back to God/Allah, Jonah was angry. Allah taught him a lesson in temperance and forgiveness by sparing the people of Nineveh. I saw the ancient walls in 2006. Got fairly close and it was humbling. It broke my heart to see how DAESH destroyed so much in Mosul. I weep for the loss of history. Peace be upon you, brother.
I honestly loved this movie and got really attached to the characters throughout the story and how strong the bond was and how they could just pick up a random kid pretty much and turn him into something ruthless yet efficient

If it were, it'd be full of shit. Hollywood makes many concessions to the US military and DOD when filming using military equipment. What I love about this movie is that it isn't a bunch of guys dying for their country. Nobody does that. When in war, no matter what side, it's you and the guys next to you. They are everything. Everything.
It is Hollywood. Writer and director is American (the same guy for WWZ), the production companies are all American, it's released on Netflix which is American. The actors, well, come from many different nationalities but Jasem himself is an actual Iraqi. Regardless, it's a Hollywood film.
Based on a true story the characters are fake but the real team is more badass I don’t think they were allowed to use the real name so the real people wouldn’t be targeted
ISIS is an American-Iranian-European creation to destroy Iraq and Syria. They are Kharijites of the era, they kill Muslims, declare them to be infidels, and claim Islam. They are Kharijites of the era.
While the story is inspired by real events, it's still a dramatization and also conflating some things. The look and equipment of the unit in the movie is clearly based on the Iraqi Special Forces' Golden Division, which also did a lot of the heavy lifting in Mosul, while the Nineveh Swat team was just a much smaller force in comparison and while brave, still first and foremost a civilian police unit and not military. There are some very good articles about the real story and the real people, written by some guy who was there and saw it all. Great movie though.
The US had promised the Iraqi army and Ba'ath party that they would remain intact after the invasion, but Paul Bremer reneged on those promises, leaving some 400,000 Iraqi soldiers, thousands of school teachers, and the civil servants (the people who ran all the day-to-day operations, like keeping the lights on, water running, police, etc.) without work. No work, no income. This led directly to the formation of ISIS/Daesh in the coming years. So thank you, "Dubya," for creating a living hell for us, our allies, and the Iraqi people.
@@JD-tn5lz I think this is what's known as a non sequitur. But, to answer whatever point it is you are trying to make, we had no interest in Iraq; that is, until we invaded it and broke the hell out of it. That's when it became our problem. Like that sign in the curio shop says, "You break it, you bought it."
I love the little details about this movie. It's everywhere, so subtle, and probably unintentional but it portrays an important image. For example, gunners have more modern helmets as opposed to others. Their helmet cover are in Turkish camo pattern. Again, even if it's unintentional it puts perspective into how Iraqi procurement system works. Turkish camos are good, popular and cheap, they're everywhere in the Middle East. Even if they belong to a SOF unit, they had to either outsource their own helmet covers or it was a direct supportive procurement from the Turkish government itself. Either way, it portrays a sense of disrupted unit cohesion which is apparent in the whole movie because these men are emotionally invested in one another. They aren't the robot soldiers that we see in the movies which is why the son's death is impactful. It is easier to feel sad WITH them, not TO them. It's all about these little details creeping up on our subconsciousness.
if you havnent watched this because you prefer english movies and not reading subtitles do yourself a favour and open your horizons a bit and watch this film. amazing.
Seeing the Iraqi people actually fighting for their country and their beliefs unlike the Afghans says miles about these 2 different cultures. Iraqi people are lions and rightfully so and they've always had my curiosity and my utmost respect.
well... at least the Iraqis had the chance to have a government... the afghan didn't. They might have a group of people called the government, had elections, but they never ruled the entire country. It's tribal country... and the US mistakenly believe the makeup government they moulded would hold up, it's more like quicksand.
Lol what a dense and stupid comment. Instead of blaming the locals, why not look how this started in the first place and which parties funded these groups and cells whilst claiming to fight against them, letting it go out of control and flee the scene whilst leaving civies to deal with them.
As a man who lives in meddle east : things are more complicated here that you can make such a statement . Please don't judge afghan people if you don't know the whole context Note : sorry for writing error . Im not a native english espeaker
Met a lot of Iraqis in Bahrain, a few of the SWAT team guys who fought in Mosul. Seriously cool guys, and really compounded how the US Government left them high and dry. You would have never known it from those guys, though. Not a single complaint, even if it would be warranted.
I have watched the movie twice..... and while they are speaking, I'm reading the subtitles..... Absolutely excellent script, character development, depth to the characters...... Can't say enough about the actors.
There is a documentary on UA-cam from the Frontline channel that represents the scene but realistically A salute to the heroic fighters of the Iraqi Special Operations Command
The ZB53 VZ37 machine gun in one of the turrets is an odd one. It is a Czech design from just before WW2 that never saw use in Iraq. Iran had some during the days of the Shah but it shouldn't be in a turret of an Iraqi police HUMVEE. One of the vehicles had an M60 which is more plausible. Really you would see M240's, PKM's, M2HB's and DShK's would be what you'd likely find. Certainly not a VZ37.

No, looks like an AKS with no stock. MP40s don't have banana mags. He also wouldn't take the mag for himself if it was an MP40. It's not outside the realm of possibility that there are still some WWII German weapons kicking around the ME, but it's vastly more likely that it's an SKS, AK, or third-world clone of either.
*@borisnech* I have a request, if it's not a bother, could you upload the full scene where the policemen are under enemy attack, and when they ran out of ammunition, the SWAT team show up on time.
This has already been posted a hundred times but damn "Fuck you and everything you stood for" is such a great line. Encapsulates all your feelings in less than 10 words
Going into this movie hearing the good guys call them selves "SWAT" i really thought it was gonna be a cringy supersoldier like movie. BUT BOY HOW WRONG I WAS. The good guys die one after another and the battle scenes are unlike anything i have ever seen. Just viceral, dirty, quick and chaotic. Unlike most of the clear and organized hollywood combat, things just go wrong here all the time... just like they would in real life. What impressed me the most is the scene where when they randomly bump into an enemy group and its all over within seconds. But those few seconds are the most realistic/shocking seconds of combat i have ever seen in a movie.
Eu já assisti muitos filmes de guerra pois é minha preferencia de escolha, esse esta entre os 10 melhores filmes de ação que já vi, mesmo tendo uma produção não tão luxuosa como hollywood , mas o enredo é bom , Bem construído, Tem um proposito e também tem um inicio, meio e fim muito bem contado, Mosul é um Excelente filme
1:07 Its crazy how much influence the punisher style of skulls has had on militaries and PMCs around fhe world. The US, blackwater, Iraq, Ukraine, Ukraine foreign legion, Russia, wager group, etc
The one with the SVD was standing up, put the gun on the bed to be able to stand up, the other was crearly really young and inexperienced most likely blanked out when the armed forces showed up.
The young one looked like he tried raising his arms, so probably attempted to surrender. The "experienced" fighter just seemed like he was trying to run away.
And they kept only Iraqi actors .is wat wholesome..that looked real convincing..loved eveby bit..ckosely researched war shots.. combats.. emotions..woe...❤❤❤❤❤
This is one of my favourite movie always its so heart touching along with action packed but feels sad at the same time when i know all this fights , deaths, saddest things are happening in real world 😢... As Lord Krishna told until even one life is suffering that suffering will have impact on every life forms in the world
Excuse me. Let me know if I was wrong/ In the minute of 02.45, the soldier yells "aman" or clear in English. That is an adjective word in Bahasa Indonesia or Indonesian language. Am I right? Big hello from Indonesia
It is more believeable if it was Persian militia men who took part in this. They are hard as hell. They are amazing warriors. I'm an American soldier and I joined too late. I wish I had the opportunity to serve alongside some Persian-Iranian-Iraqi soldiers in the fight against ISIS back in the day.
@17MrLeon yeah I'm pretty sure i read somewhere the Russo Bros. had a hard time finding a Dshk, so they used something else.. its pretty common in the movie industry. Plus the fact there is no record of the vz 37 in use by Iraq's standard and paramility forces, especially the Nineveh SWAT team.
I like the fact that they actually hired iraqi actors for this and not any random arab, the iraqi accent makes it more real. gonna go watch this tonight.
And that they didn't add some Western character.
The main character Kawa is played by a Tunisian actor, but still it's refreshing to see Arab actors speak Arabic in a film.

Not exactly unrealistic. Things like STG44s and MP40s are still being used in middle east, albeit very rare.
2:00 you See what is it
No-stock AKM or a folded-stock AK-S
Looks like an AKS(AKM with a under folding stock)
No, looks like an AKS with no stock. MP40s don't have banana mags. He also wouldn't take the mag for himself if it was an MP40. It's not outside the realm of possibility that there are still some WWII German weapons kicking around the ME, but it's vastly more likely that it's an SKS, AK, or third-world clone of either.
This movie was awesome
I've watched this, it is a great movie very realistic, and accurate as I have been in Mosul.
such an underrated movie
*@borisnech* I have a request, if it's not a bother, could you upload the full scene where the policemen are under enemy attack, and when they ran out of ammunition, the SWAT team show up on time.
Hello, thanks for reaching out! Good idea! I will do my best to upload that scene as soon as possible! 🫡 Stay tuned.
@@borisnech That's great, thank you very much, 🫡 I’ll be attentive.
Enjoyed the movie ..our bollywood can't touch this perfection..they perfectly shot each and every possibilities in an urban warfare... amazing
A very good movie ! Very real ! Note : 5/5 ! 👍👍👍👍
I love this movie, need more war movie from iraqi preservative
that's an old BESA machine gun
damn good movie - I will watch it again for sure.
This has already been posted a hundred times but damn "Fuck you and everything you stood for" is such a great line. Encapsulates all your feelings in less than 10 words
One of the best war movie I've ever watched. Very realistic.
Prayers for peace in Pakistan Palestine and Iraq
One of the best movies I saw that year .
Fantastic MOVIE!!👊👊👊👊👊
That crossfire in the first few seconds
its a great movie if you're from hollywood
Going into this movie hearing the good guys call them selves "SWAT" i really thought it was gonna be a cringy supersoldier like movie. BUT BOY HOW WRONG I WAS. The good guys die one after another and the battle scenes are unlike anything i have ever seen. Just viceral, dirty, quick and chaotic. Unlike most of the clear and organized hollywood combat, things just go wrong here all the time... just like they would in real life.
What impressed me the most is the scene where when they randomly bump into an enemy group and its all over within seconds. But those few seconds are the most realistic/shocking seconds of combat i have ever seen in a movie.
Is this a movie? What is its name?
Mosul movie
@@SADOK1948 thank you.

On Netflix
Haven't seen this one looks good
Eu já assisti muitos filmes de guerra pois é minha preferencia de escolha, esse esta entre os 10 melhores filmes de ação que já vi, mesmo tendo uma produção não tão luxuosa como hollywood , mas o enredo é bom , Bem construído, Tem um proposito e também tem um inicio, meio e fim muito bem contado, Mosul é um Excelente filme
What kind of gun is that mounted on the vehicle?
Is this the Netflix version or the other version. They’re literally two movies that came out the same year named the same thing.
I know! I accidentally bought the documentary one instead of this one. It is so confusing.
Netflix
1:07
Its crazy how much influence the punisher style of skulls has had on militaries and PMCs around fhe world. The US, blackwater, Iraq, Ukraine, Ukraine foreign legion, Russia, wager group, etc
Why’d they drop their weapons right before they got shot? Were they gonna surrender or attempt a suicidal attack? Always kinda stuck with me
Low budget acting
the idiot on the left was probaly ready to surrender, looked scared shitless
The one with the SVD was standing up, put the gun on the bed to be able to stand up, the other was crearly really young and inexperienced most likely blanked out when the armed forces showed up.
They were probably shocked and tried to run for it
The young one looked like he tried raising his arms, so probably attempted to surrender. The "experienced" fighter just seemed like he was trying to run away.
And they kept only Iraqi actors .is wat wholesome..that looked real convincing..loved eveby bit..ckosely researched war shots.. combats.. emotions..woe...❤❤❤❤❤
Most realistic war film I saw 🎉
Such a great movie wish Germany and America helped you guys out more
lol where is the WMD?
A huge reason this happened is because of the illegal invasion of 2003
@@Wvk5zcup your nose lol
Is that the Halo 3 AR sound effect I hear
This is a really GREAT Movie! I loved it!
This is one of my favourite movie always its so heart touching along with action packed but feels sad at the same time when i know all this fights , deaths, saddest things are happening in real world 😢... As Lord Krishna told until even one life is suffering that suffering will have impact on every life forms in the world
Excuse me. Let me know if I was wrong/ In the minute of 02.45, the soldier yells "aman" or clear in English. That is an adjective word in Bahasa Indonesia or Indonesian language. Am I right?
Big hello from Indonesia
such a great movie
hearing Iraqi, that’s some serious attention to detail.
Machineguns on Humvee ZB 37 and M 60?
So proud this Movie EXSIST till now
I'm from Iraq btw🗿🗿🗿🗿
01:49
It looks like a ZB-37 Czechoslovakian MG.
ich mag das video, danke kameraden
Being holding back in seeing this film don’t now why(guess I’m a master procrastinator) I gotta see this!
This was a great movie
So that big machine gun turns to pellets when it hits that wall??
One of the most intense war films I've seen. The dude is such a father figure in this movie.
It is more believeable if it was Persian militia men who took part in this. They are hard as hell. They are amazing warriors. I'm an American soldier and I joined too late. I wish I had the opportunity to serve alongside some Persian-Iranian-Iraqi soldiers in the fight against ISIS back in the day.
من قاتل على الارض هم العراقيين اين الفرس يا اخي الامريكي نحن العراقيين الذين قاتلنا الارهابيين و اخرجناهم من ارضنا لايوجد لمرتزقه فرس.😊
2:42 - 2:46 Mereka bilang "Aman" ? Jadi bahasa indonesia "Aman" itu serapan dari bahasa arab "Amanun" ?
Yeah, a lot of indonesian is derived from Arabic, you guys got conquered by them, that's why Jawi is written with Sanskrit
@@purest_evilnot conquered . It's a trade . Don't make a dumb claim
Favorite war movie, it's in Netflix.
Iraq War vet. This is very impressive. What movie?
Great movie
Cool to see czech vz. 37 machinegun on humwee. Although the sound is like its .50 cal
was supposed to be a Dshk mounted machine gun but they couldn't find one for the movie. :(
@@chevalier115 Im pretty sure its supposed to depict what it shows, Dshk would much easier to find
@17MrLeon yeah I'm pretty sure i read somewhere the Russo Bros. had a hard time finding a Dshk, so they used something else.. its pretty common in the movie industry. Plus the fact there is no record of the vz 37 in use by Iraq's standard and paramility forces, especially the Nineveh SWAT team.
Man... that was intense.
Can anyone suggest any 'war' films/movies where it isn't amateur hour, that I might not have watched?
Was it during The Syrian Civil War?
Mosul is in Iraq, so no
