"Saving Jessica Lynch" (2003) - Iraq War Military drama

- During Operation Iraqi Freedom, an Iraqi citizen (Nicholas Guilak) risks his life to help U.S. forces rescue a captive American soldier (Laura Regan).
Dramatizations of the capture and rescue of the Army supply clerk (Laura Regan) during Operation Iraqi Freedom, based on the account of Iraqi lawyer Mohammed Al-Rehaief (Nicholas Guilak), who risks his own life---and those of his wife and daughter---to inform U.S. forces of Private Lynch's whereabouts after he sees an Iraqi soldier slapping her at the hospital where his wife works as a nurse. The film's first 40 minutes are shown without interruption.
A TV docudrama that was literally thrown together within months following the dramatic rescue of Private Jessica Lynch in the first weeks of `Iraqi Freedom.' There was much skepticism for many who even considered working on the project do to the quick timing. To this day, rumor and innuendo still surround the facts. Handsomely produced and legitimately emotional at points, "Saving Jessica Lynch" isn't a great film, but it is decent.
NBC claims that this particular version of events are the story rights of Mohammed Al Rehaief, the Iraqi lawyer who risked his life and family by telling American Soldiers of Lynch's where abouts. Yet, the movie starts long before Al Rehaief's participation, and the circumstances surrounding events without Al Rehaief are apparent matter of fiction, creative conjecture, and public record, that the creators have handled well. But there will always be this question, that I hope critics will answer, who does this story really belong to?
Originally aired on TV on November 9, 2003.

Thank you, great movie! 🙏❤️🙏
Omg still remember seeing this from Star Movies on cable TV. Thanks for uploading it.
My Heart and Salute To This Galant Brave Soldiers Thanks For Ur Service: From The Philippines 🇵🇭
And what about the other side?
God bless the Iraqi family who helped Jessica. May Jessica be blessed with peace and stability for the future.
It was a fake story
Thank u so much nice movie...
One of the awesome true to life story I've watched since Saving Private Ryan. God bless America 🇺🇲 the land of the free and the home of the brave. To all the men and women of the Armed forces thank you for your service 🎖️🇵🇭
Lionheart films are renowned for excellence as this film clearly illustrated.
A great movie! Thanks to the Iraq family that assisted in helping the USA secure her and her military friends!
A powerful story of courage, bravery, sacrifice, and rescue. My love, respect, and
admiration go out to all the men and women of the U.S. Armed Forces who defend and
protect democracy and freedom right across the globe. I salute them and will always
pray for them. May God keep them safe against all odds.
A powerful piece of fiction.
So the unit that made first contact with the lawyer was a US Army psyop cell attached to the Marines. They sussed the importance of it, grabbed the guy and hauled ass to the battalion HQ. Their terp sussed out that the guy was on the level and that touched off the whole show. All the SOCOM and MARSOC guys were fighting each other to go on that raid.
Great movie Excellent ❤
They didn't maintained there weapons.. or cleaned their M-4'S thats why their M-4 jammed. Fine dust particles jammed the mechanism
Jessica Lynch god bless you. Thank you for the hell and back story.
Never shall I leave a fallen comrade to fall into the hands of the enemy. RLTW
Probably one of the last made for TV network movies
Excellent movie.
Wow, absolutely stunning movie that occurred in Iraqi war, D prime character here is Mohamed that helps wounded and and captured American Soldiers, all of them should be grateful to Mohamed. Without Mohamed their locations can't be located by American Soldiers rescuers. God bless. Those people's who is doing righteous with his fellow men.
You are not interested in war and war is interested in you
Classic!!! 🪖🎖️❤️🔥
👍👍NICE MOVIE😄😄
So what if he cant help? , maybe that girl jessica dead also.. So very proud to the man to help her very nice story for that man, and proud to usa soldiers to help his family safe from there country.
The only thing I know for sure is when I heard about it when it happened was, they drove right into the enemy camp. I said that’s the dumb ass National Guard for you when I was in. I told them that there was no way I’d go to war with them. I’d be going to I’d be deserting and going to a military base to get retrained.
As an army veteran (69 - 72) I'm wondering why there was no distance to the first turn (kilometers or miles)? The army hasn't really improved much. The decision should have been to go back to the beginning point rather than guess.
There must be an advance party prior their departure to act as a QRF
Good movie
Glad to see this one up here. She had nothing to do with the movie, however. Though NBC offered her a ton of money-and though not filmed, CBS had a similar offer. She refused, doing the book with Rick Bragg instead. Still, a pretty decent movie, and I do remember it on NBC at the time (taped it off the air with VHS).
baby wipes, the greatest invention since toilet paper.
You notice they have never mentioned that the Black woman (soldier) that was also taken hostage I forgot her name and went through rape etc
Oh shut up! Stop calling her the “black soldier”! She is a United States soldier. Call her by her name! NOT her skin colour! Yes she was left out but disrespect her more by not even referring to her by her name!
Western Media doesn't want to make the Iraqis look bad.
It purports to be story of the rescue of Jessica Lynch, so I’m just astounded that anyone read the title and expected it to tell anything about anyone else that ever lived. 😂😂😂😂
America is white so black lives matter
@@suzanhodges415 I think you missed THE HEART OF THE MATTER, YOU SEE IF THE PERSON REMEMBERED HER NAME HE WOULD HAVE SAID IT .. BUT WHATS M O R E IMPORTANT IS THAT HE RECOGNISES HER PLIGHT AS A HUMAN BEING AND SEES SHES NOT RECOGNISED AS PART OF THE STORY. T H A T MEANS THE PERSON WITH THE COMPLAINT IS N O T PREJUDICE BUT SIMPLY CANNOT REMEMBER HER NAME BUT WANTS HER REMEMBERED IN THIS STORY..GET IT?
GOOD, NOW GO CHILL OUT
What's the identical parallel to Islam & communism? Destitution, poverty & hopelessness
And death and hell.
Exactly and heres what I observed.
Muslims are also good people like christians, but not until they become a marathon reader and read in their books teaching like these:
The Quran is replete with Surahs directing its followers to violence.
Some examples follow:
Surah 3:151: "We shall cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve (all non-Muslims) …"
Surah 2:191: "And kill them (non-Muslims) wherever you find them … kill them. Such is the recompense of the disbelievers (non-Muslims).
Surah 9:5: "Then kill the disbelievers (non-Muslims) wherever you find them, capture them and besiege them, and lie in wait for them in each and every ambush …"
And communism don't believe in any God at all.
No parallels
The m16 used in 2003 in iraq did not have full auto capability, only single shot and three round bursts.
That's because moron soldiers would have an empty clip in 3 seconds with full auto.
Youre talking out your ASS.......The M16A1 can shoot semi automatic and fully automatic fire. The M16A2 can shoot semi automatic and three-round-burst fire. The M4A1 Carbine retains full automatic and semi automatic fire. check facts properly
restores the sense of patriotism and pride in this great country, through the courageous duty of great soldiers like these. Obama is a worthless coward, and so many others have sold this country out, we must take our stand today and restore , the greatest God-given, blessed country on earth, Amen. in Jesus' name, I stand alone. Amen endless thanks from the heart for all who have served.
Iraq was invaded under the George W. Bush administration, Obama wasn't even President yet.
That's so beautiful 😍
Looked like a good movie but turned it off after 30 minutes. Movie is constantly interrupted with ads.
Yep, same here. Ads every five minutes is ridiculous.
Premium is worth every penny
@@DMS-pq8 Blocker is free.
Same here.
What a way the 21st century began! History is not a pretty picture, that is for sure. Certainly not 😐
This doesn't jive with the truth
Is good to be good and stand on the justice ❤.........,
👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
She was with the red Cross.
IDF NOT LEAVING ANY HOSTAGES BEHIND JUST AS THIS MOVIE STATES EVEN THOUGH 2 NAVY SEALS WERE LEFT BEHIND OFF THE SAMALIE COAST
These aren't IDF. It's the US army national guard. As for the SEALs, they fell overboard and drowned. Bodies weren't recovered.
@Foreign0817
Israel was highly criticized at this time for not sending any troops to help in the war on terror. The very few they did send to Iraq took aim and fired at a U.S. Marine convoy and ran. The Marines chased them down and caught them.
When it was found that they were IDF soldiers, the Marines asked them why they fired at them. The IDF claimed they thought the Marines were "the enemy".
No joke man. This was reported in the NY Times.
@@Elsupermayan8870 I can't find anything on this. Do you have a source?
You’re ridiculous. Anyone who can hear a slogan and start conducting analyses to determine if it’s an all encompassing description of the literal complexities of life just can’t be argued with. So I’ll just say you’re so right. A lot of other things, and right.
@@Elsupermayan8870 and to them WE ARE THERE ENEMY
What a 🥺 🍿
Bidden would not have gone in for them. Look at the way he ran from Afghanistan at a cost of how many servicemen.
Biden would have put more thought on what time he was going for his nap rather than think on getting anyone out .... which I agree with you waynewilliams he wouldn't, Biden is not a good leader, his word means nothing. I hope you all think of this on voting day.
Not bad !.
I just thought I had seen bad acting in other movies. This one takes the cake!
Go go go nendi
very nice movie......
What about the black and Native American girls let’s not forget them
It was a great movie 👌👍👍👍
@ 21:23. I don’t think the RPG warhead would arm, at that short distance.
Rocket Propelled Grenades definitely would detonate that close, as it is detonated by a percussion fired fuse. The RPG rocket is issued with a protective rubber nose cap to prevent accidental detonation by an RPG crewmember. There is one anecdotal report that I remember hearing of where either an Army or Marine infantryman wounded an Iraqi insurgent trying to cross a street, and as the insurgent fell, he dropped his loaded RPG launcher into a curb, causing it to detonate and obliterate the insurgent.
@@robertlanning7612 thanks. Best I can find out is that RPG-7 has an inertia safety, so the warhead arms at 5 metres. Self detonates at 920m. 🤷♂️
they gave there lives! for what! it will never end!
They gave them for Bush, Cheney, and KBR.
Nakita kopo ito sa pinoy movie recap kaya si nearch ko
great movie
Mistake #1: Woman driver. Just sayin'.
Americans were well respected these days 😊
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
This traitor!
The account I've heard is she sat in the truck and cried while the men fought and died.
If none of them had invaded Iraq in the first place, there'd be a lot more Iraqis alive today.
@@RebeccaTurner-ny1xxif your dictator would not be killing people and invading others much more iraquis would be alive and happy
@@RebeccaTurner-ny1xx Well if the terrorists didn't think civilians were such great targets.
@@cyclone8974 Like the Israelis and their American backers?
@@22grena
When Israel gain independence the neighboring Arab countries told the palestinians to leave so they could cleanse the land of Jews. They did and the neighboring Arab countries attacked and got their asses handed to them instead.
Keep in mind the middleeast used to be Christian but the muslims drove them alway.
A debatable fact movie. But why did american soldiers stand (sihouettted) in front of their vehicles lights just waiting to be ambushed if it was a trap
Americans soldiers should have had the training we had in the South African Defence force in the 70's and 80's,,,they would have operated much better
These were National Guard supply soldiers not Green Berets
بداية الغزو لم يكن يوجد موبايل كذلك الزي لايشابه زي العراقيين اخراج فاشل
What did the American free the Iraqi from ?
N0THING
america attack iraq first. Thats why since 2019 till present many u.s veteran said bush is big liar. They also burned their uniforms and badge. Those clips are everywhere now
It’s Muslimes’s not muslims
Where is the alleged mass destruction and chemical weapons
Lies perpetuated by war criminals Bush and Cheney.
Mud Slimes
she hadno navigational skills whatsoever…
Your DEFENITLY WRONG how can a soldier become one if he or she does not even know anything about military skills
@@hexebarya7395 Guess you never served or you woukd know the answer to that amigo
@@buzz5969 Guess you didnt understand my statement
hina ng american matines dto ahhhh
If that really happened , it means that the Americans involved in the ambush were shit .. To express myself elegantly , zero training . If we are dealing with the imagination of a screenwriter , the film is for fools .
Tentang penyerbuan US ke Iranq/ Saddam,mana yg jujur DAJJAL US atau saddam,propaganda kotor
Blairs murderous war
That’s catchy. You should copyright it and put it on a bumper sticker. Oh, wait…😂
Arent they a shamed to show this kind of bs?
A shamed?
@@alfordtl1 Just one.
It's more accurate than the original story. She was knocked unconscious and wasn't able to fight.
@@alfordtl1in 2019 why many u.s veterans burned theirs uniform and badge? Then they shouted n blame bush for what? They crying for iraq citizens for what?
Very mediocre movie with some very distorted facts. Patriotism first even if facts need being buried.
Don't blame the soldiers blame Bush and rino war mongers , should have kept focus only on Bid Ladin.
Agreed
Full of Lies.........
What are you doing in other countries?? Except for robbing them of their riches.??
The United States spent hundreds of billions of dollars in Iraq and took nothing in return
Yes you right sir, they exactly done that😢
I like&love to watch usa war history especially Middle East usa,so we love trump,we the people,I love usa military usa,but biden did usa military last,trump did usa military first ❤❤❤❤❤
What language are you typing are you drunk or high
This movie was "Made in China", I guess 😎
Russian war films r far better than this😅
What is Jessica Lynch doing now???😊
O.F. ?
I think she became a school teacher
That is a good one. I do understand that the actual story would not sell, so why not to make a fake one, yes? The real one is here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jessica_Lynch
lot to catch up on , things to setup , logins, devices , new material , and kindle , audible to re review and new material , SHALOM MAZEL TOV
Saving Terrorist from bring killed In Iraq...suppose title of this film.
This movie is totally gay.

@@ericborinaga2785 well that's me off to the burns unit.
