This movie has all the reasons why we are attempting to provide freedom for the free world. Even though we are in Harm's way, the movie depicts what we are willing to give for this freedom. It was exciting, determined to retrieve our people to safety, and just what risk we are willing to take to bring our men back. The Admiral that gave his career to the wolves, just because of his principals of saving that man's life. He knew the value of his word and also was willing to sacrifice his career for it. If anyone should have been awarded a medal for valor it should of been him. I knew nothing of the real story of this movie until the ending. I had to have the movie because of what the brief trailer showed in the previews. The movie was very well portrayed, and reflected the dangers we are facing in many parts of the world. I really thought this movie was great.Read full review
I like this movie because of its no nonsense content. Very well produced and directed. If I had the time I would like to watch it on a weekly basis!

True stories always catch my attention, I loved that Owen Wilson did such good acting, with Gene Hackman. I bought it because how Gene Hackman went against the orders and brought Owen Wilson back safely, and how he got demoted but instead retired to save face, how he walked out a hero and in front of everyone in the armed forces walked with dignity, but the sadness of everyone knowing he saved one of our soldiers, and yet was repromanded for it, but he still walked out a hero, and in history he will be a hero because of all the people this movie has touched, to me he is a hero, and deserved better then what he got.
Good watching
