If you buy the DVD you see the real Carl Brashear who helped in the making of the movie and the guy is tiny - which makes this 12 steps to honor even more incredible. A fantastic tribute to un-sung heros of true courage - the only comparison that comes to mind is the film "Reach for the Sky" about WW2 fighter pilot Douglas Bader.
@CEELOW3000 I went to elementary school with Cuba AND I was a Naval Deckseaman/Boatswainsmate aboard the USS Arkanasas CGN - 41 decommissioned ( ISS Carl Vinson Aircraft Carrier Battle Group ). This film brought tears to my eyes.
Love all the year markings on deniros sleeve shows how many years of duty served for every 4 years but all in RED due to times of misconduct through out the years served, only Gold is granted to wear when a sailor has great conduct for service The red shows character..
This was the DVD version. They cut a lot of the details. In the actual movie in the theatre version. The scene included blood droplets on the floor. The DVD version was a total rip off compared the theatre version.
I love the way Robert Deniro takes him back to the fear of a senior instructor. He made him feel like he was just a mere trainee and that you did what the instructor said even if it meant being told "beat everyone on this teams ass with one hand tied behind your back" No matter what the trainee was told the trainee did it.
Being in the Navy AND becoming a successful Sailor and/or Salvage Diver takes a special kind of character that alot of people (especially in the Marines for some reason) do not respect. They look at the navy and say "ah they're all a bunch of drunk fucking bums", nothing could be further from the truth. You can face 200 thousand troops and it wouldn't equate with facing mother nature above and below the surface.It's a different and more chilling kind of menace.
@bnjmn420 oh thats soo original you fucking racist cunt. im white but still your just a douche bag grow some balls and say that to a black mans face... you wont have a face after that.
This is my favorite movie forever. It reflects what live is about. No matter how many times you go down you have to believe in yourself and have faith in God that you are going to succeed on whatever you decide to accomplish in live.
Cuba is such a great actor...for real. There's only 2 movies that made me cry, that was this movie and Blood Diamond. Cuba deserves another Oscar. The way he played his whole role in this movie was just so....I don't even got words for it. Same goes for Robert De Niro. Both of them will go down in history as one of the BEST.
what a fucking hero! And the best thing of all, its a fucking true story!! Absolute legend! They dont make them with as much heart as this guy anymore!
@jorn468 9. A navy diver is not a fighting man,he's a salvage expert.
10. If it's lost underwater he finds it, if it's sunk he brings it up, if it's in the way he moves it!
11. If he's lucky he will die young 200 feet beneath the waves, for that is the closest he will ever get to being a hero! Hell idk why anybody would wanna be a navy diver, now you report to this line cookie!. . . . . at easeee.
@gregtdmorrison wow that's not even funny, if you trying to be funny/cute or cool whatever you just failed! because there are men and women who have died and die every year 200 feet under water.
Although Captain Hanks was a dick, was good acting on hs behalf. I can't believe he wanted them to stop after 8 steps. He really didn't want him to pass so Sunday would retire.
