before i actually talk about this movie i would like to say that in general a lot of the scenes brings backs memories, i would rather soon forget. like getting the haircut, getting screamed at. harassed. that kinda thing. but anyway i proceeded to give the movie a shot,, not a bad piece of work actually. i mean these kind of movies have been done before, but the characters in this one seemed to have held my interest. tyrese Gibson, seemed to be way over the top, but i liked him,, james franco, not to bad,, looked like he could actually box. jordanna brewster, cute as-s a picture, i don't care if the movie get's it right where they said that's not the way the Navy does it or , i'm just a regular joe who appreciates a good story,, let's pretend i'm stupid for a minute, and didn't know where the naval academy was in real life. i did recognize something right off that bat, and that's good for the movie , and that's the Philadelphia Naval Shipyard. gosh i passed over that sucker off to my left heading out of jersey in to philly on the Walt Whitman bridge, that's one of my fav. sights in Philly .... the shipyard. well back to the movie. i loved the character of the young black plebe "twins". i could identify with him very well,the movie was way better than i thought it would be, now it's not a Hollywood masterpiece by any stretch of the imagination, but not something thrown together at the last minute.
