Yep
Not a big nicholis cage fan, but came home with the movie " men of courage the Indianapolis story"
Holy Crap , and I mean crap. The special effects from the Movie Torah Tora Tora that was made in 1970 that I had just watched a month prior were 50 times better.
It was like they had a budget of 300 dollars for the special affects so they had to give the job to a 3rd grader ,because they paid nicholis cage all the money but not enough, because he still Suked.
God awful it was , I had to continue watching it just to see how bad it could get. It got worse.

Hopefully it will be better then the Miami Vice movie. That movie had so much potential and it SUCKED. The plot, the photography, the acting, the music, was all horrible. Can you tell I didn't like it?

I just watched the OJ mini series with Travolta as Shapiro, and I have ti say he did a good job with that role. He is ok with me as Aronow. Hope the movie is good, and brings the 188th Boats into the limelight. He is much better than Cage IMO.

That was godawful, the best part of the movie was the old pictures of the survivors during the credits.

This could be a great movie, but my cynical nature says they will add all the absurdity of a Hollywood racing movie and ruin it. Think "Days of Thunder." I'll look forward to it however, since I'm a Donzi homer...

I take it you have read the book. Unbelievable story. Me being a person of the Sea . I can't imagine surviving that amount of time in saltwater with no freshwater and the hazards of endless sharks.

Been into offshore boats and sailboats since 1970.
Still one of the best made movies out there dealing with boats. I know it's sailing and you guys hate it, and from a sailors point of view there is a few Cheesy Whomper moments in it but it was still done incredibly well compared to any other boat oriented movie out there.

Almost forgot one of the highlights of the movie is a Starship Voyager flying into the movie.
They spent the time to record the peculiar sound that this twin turbine pusher prop plane makes.
My dad lives 2 miles from the airport in Naples Florida. I can hear the one that flys into there every time . Usually jump out of the pool to watch it.
Cool old ride as most of them were crushed.
