New offering on Netflix-Based on true story-Congo/Katanga stuff from the early 1960's. True "Wild Geese" type story-esp. since it is an Irish unit-Tine is limited so only watched about 1 minute so far.

Jamie Dornan, who stars in this movie, is the lead in the 50 Shades of Gray films.
The plot synopsis on IMDB reminds me a bit of a film I liked from the 1960's, Dark of the Sun with Rod Taylor and Jim Brown (one of his first movies after retiring from football). Based on a Wilbur Smith novel and very violent for that era. If you haven't seen it, Spock, you might like to check it out.
