This is one of the best movies ever. You must appreciate the fact that it is based on a true story. It transports you to a different time and takes your mind completely away from the realities of now.

The begining of the film is very common. Brashear tries to be an overwhelming guy, his origins are very common, the courage inyected by his family in dificult moments makes him a successfull diver..

I would have to say that this is one of the best movies I have seen, it was so inspiring. The best thing about it is that it is based on a true story. It shows that you can do anything you set your mind to. I was impressed!

I really really enjoyed this movie. The injustice that so many people face was displayed remarkably. The strength that individuals have to overcome these barriers is astounding. A definite must see.

Really enjoyed this movie and it just goes to show that men can move mountains. Robert De Niro is excellent.

What an inspirational movie! Makes some of our problems seem so trivial in comparison. Give bags of hopes to all those that need an extra boost!!

Touching, poignant, frustration, disbelief, anger... I felt so many emotions while watching this movie. Perhaps knowing it is based on a true story causes one to take it so seriously. De Niro, Gooding Jr... How can you miss. A must see!

Good Movie! What can I say? Ready $12 to watch this movie, just good. Robert De Niro and Cuba Gooding Jr. Just as good as they are, and I love this movie. Therefore, you must go watch this movie.

I saw this movie a couple of weeks ago and really liked it. First of, it`s a very American movie, I knew that since the first time I saw the previews, but the fact that it was based on a true story forced me to go and judge again; veredict: a very american movie. But dispite that fact, the movie was very good. Gooding was quite OK, but his play in Jerry Maguire will be hard to top and DeNiro was his usual self, playing the meanie. For a person that has been or is in the armed forces anywhere, the tale ilustrates a face which is everpresent in a military environment: the pressure, the will to go on, the pride that comes with success and deep rooted frustration that comes when you get injured and are unable to do your job. Most civilians do not understand this and won`t do so until they actually volunteer to eventually defend their countries and rights with their very own lives. As for the movie, not a masterpiece, but most certainly one of the best films of the year. Amazing underwater scenes as well as captivating action sequences and special effects. The family plot could have been developped a bit more (on both Sunday and Brashear`s sides), but the relation between Sunday and Brashear makes up for it, it is very singular and inspiring (the charachter of Billy Sunday is based on two persons that influenced Brashear`s carrer in real life). Bottom line, a movie worth seeing by anyone familiar with a military environment or basically anyone who would like to be inspired.
