Description: An heroic life gets a suitably dramatic retelling in George Tillman, Jr.'s docudrama MEN OF HONOR, based on the true story of Carl Brashear, the first African American to become a United States Navy master diver. The film employs the con...
This is such a wonderful movie. I had my 13 year old grandson watch this to see that a man of honor can do anything if he has the TRUE DESIRE!! My wish is that every teenager would watch this movie. They see all the movies about death, driving fast, drugs and dumb kids doing crazy things. It would be fabulous for them to watch a movie that would inspire them to Greatness. The story (based on truth) is entertaining, thought provoking and uplifting. The acting is primo!!!! GREAT MOVIE FOR MEN, WOMEN AND TEENS.

i bought the dvd men of honor its a great movie and it Came fast and worked fine it was a gift that brought them to tears A++ The movie is great to start with and i liked it too
bonus fetures were odd but alternate endings rock !
I watch this movie whenever I need a good cry. I know it's silly for a man like me to say that, but Cuba Gooding, Jr. portrayed Carl Brashear with such conviction, that you couldn't help but cry. Robert DeNiro did an excellent job of playing a man that you respected and hated all at the same time.
This movie is a must in my movie collection. A peice worth seeing time after time and analyzing part by part, piece by piece.
The quality performance made by Gooding Jr. and Diniro are at the height of expressing the moment which all finds us to answer the question of how we will respond to life's pinnacle turning points and our willingness to welcome struggle, and challenges POSITIVELY and OPENLY without returning hatred, that will literally alter our human spirit to an ever rewarding level. (A good and healthy way to break the cycle of hate.)
A delicate balance. Literally changing us upward forever and becoming the living example of POSITIVE STRENTH for young and old to follow suit in their own lives to touch others as well.
In Gooding's character I see him drawing his strength from God and holding on to preserving the benefits for humanity, love of family and knowing first hand that the goal is to stay clear of dead end roads and to believe in taking a chance worth fighting for for basic survival day to day and spiritually.
It is quite unhealthy and dehumanizing to box in and shut light out of another person, but with strength and determination and pureness of heart in desire to overcome, can always turn ill intensions of one and be made into the light, for the darkness of another and directly for your oposers (reguardless of who or how). Just by shear example at the least.
A FIVE STAR QUALITY FILM FOR THE ENTIRE HUMAN SPIRIT! :-)
THIS MOVIE SHOWS THE WAY BOTH THESE ACTORS CAN TRULY CAPTURE A PART AND BECOME THAT PERSON THIS IS AN EXCELLENT MOVIE AND THATS WHY I FIND IT TO BE ONE OF MY TOP TEN MOVIES OF ALL TIME,THANX
Wonderful movie. A lot of action with a good story. The actors make you hate or love them. You find yourself getting mad a the charters. This movie is one you can see really happening. It will give you the chills.
I purchased this for my daughter, she kept raving about it. Of course I watched it with her. I must give this movie 5*****. Although it was made in 2001, I just recently watched it. It was WELL beyond my expectations. The plot and cast were simply outstanding. There is lessons to be learned in this movie. It is heart warming, encouraging and will remind anyone who watches it the importance of strength, determination and the ability to overcome any obstacles. "Things are not always what they seem"...so true! If your looking for a GREAT movie, this must be one of them. I think knowing this is a true story, makes it that much better! 5 STARS!
I love this movie...I've seen it about 20 times! Robert DeNiro and Cuba Gooding Jr. are amazing!! This is the kind of movie I could watch over and over again. Such a great movie, with an awesome ending!
ONE OF MY FAVORITE MOVIES OF ALL TIME, I LOVE DENIRO, HE IS SO INTENSE. I COULD NOT FIND THIS THROUGH MY REGULAR CLUB SELECTIONS, SO I BOUGHT IT HERE ON EBAY, AND WILL BUY MORE.
