Audience Member A stunning history, crime and drama film, successfully replicating and substantially improving the German 1997 DocuDrama Todespiel and an excellent popcorn thriller. Mogadischu is fast paced, tense, energetic, suspenseful and in HD Technicolor. The hijacked Landshut 737's incredible journey flight (cross-country odyssey) through Rome, Larnaca, Bahrain, Dubai, Aden and Mogadishu will surely shock and thrill the audience. One of the best films in German cinema. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Audience Member In 1977 a Lufthansa flight was hijacked by Palestinian extremists who demanded the release of imprisoned Red Army Fraction members by the German government. The terrorists took the plane to Somalia and started a long survival struggle for the passangers aboard the plane. "Mogadischu" is Roland Suso Richter's intense TV-movie depicting this struggle. The picture is an intence experience. It's told as a thriller but not in a tasteless manner, giving the center stage to human resourcefulness through well established characters. The feel here is of a documentary re-enactment, but there are enough creative achievements present to make "Mogadischu" a work of cinematic art. This is thrilling and smart material, dramatic but not overly dramatized. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Audience Member One of the best German TV productions. Although most of the people know the story about the kidnapped Landshut plane, the movie fascinated me a lot! Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member One of the best german TV productions! Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Audience Member ce film suit principalement la prise d'otage sur les passagers d'un vol qui devait aller a majorque pour se retrouver detourne a mogadiscio. L'ambiance oppressante est bien rendue. Je n'ai malheureusement pas suivi le reste du complot politque en allemagne car les sous titres ont disparu au milieu du film :) Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Read all reviews
