About this deal

Asher, Michael (2002). The Real Bravo Two Zero: The Truth Behind Bravo Two Zero. Cassell Military. ISBN 978-0-304-36554-8. In its own bloody, satirical way, this is how The Hunt gets its point across about some of the clear dangers that exist in our modern world – namely the extreme dangers of distortion and assumption. Thanks to the internet, our society is able to spread news and information faster than any generation before, and while there are tremendous benefits to that, there is also a great capacity for error that comes part and parcel with that speed. As certain details get lost and opinions sway interpretation, chaos can ensue with serious consequences, and the film is an illustration of that. The only thing censored in the book is "the p***-takes", which he waters down because the way the squaddies talk to each other is impossible to represent without making them sound utterly incorrigible. In fact, he explains, dark humour is a survival tool.

Also there was a fair bit of repetition of why the lead knew he could count on his team etc. But in the end this is an account of a very skilled team told by one of the “brothers” and ultimately I couldn’t put it down.As a film it would be great. As a book it droned on. An example is the repeated recitation of map coordinates. In a movie map coordinates add realism. In a book it's a pointless string of numbers.
