Not nearly as heroic, is it?

Some critics view the film as blatant propaganda on behalf of the US, or favoring military intervention in general. Unlike Scott's earlier film G.I. Jane, Black Hawk Down received the full cooperation of the US military and he allowed the military a veto over every aspect of the film in order to receive this level of military involvement. Some argue that this resulted in a biased finished product, although it is not clear whether the U.S. military asked Scott to modify or censor the film in any way. There is a small controversy in that the character of Spc. John Stebbins be replaced by the fictional character, Spc. John Grimes, as the former was convicted by court martial in 1999 for molesting and raping his own daughter[7]. Some believe that the Pentagon requested this change.[citation needed]
