A Navy navigator is shot down over enemy territory and is ruthlessly pursued by a secret police enforcer and the opposing troops. Meanwhile his commanding officer goes against orders in an attempt to rescue him.
I remember seeing this in the theater in NYC. It was a few months after 9/11 and when Admiral Reigart defies orders to go in and save Lt.Burnett the fucking theater exploded with cheers.
I am a Navy veteran. Watching this scene reminds me of Captain Crozier of the USS ROOSEVELT. He will ALWAYS have my RESPECT👍👍👍!!! May God Bless Captain Crozier; what an OUTSTANDING officer.👏👏👏🙏🙏🙏
Getting coronavirus is not the same as being removed from command for rescuing a navigator who disobeyed procedures and got his co-pilot killed for doing so in accordance to the movie. But I will agree with you. Thank you for protecting and servicing the sick animals. Vets do not get the respect they deserve. Even those who fly desks.
Ryan Adams rescue blues , a great choice for the scene especially the part when the admiral looked at his staff on the ship and they straightened up for him 👌🏻
This movie in my opinion deserved at the least 3 Stars. But I myself give 5 Stars ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ + I think the Admiral deserves that. He’s the chief of command and made the decision. Talk about caring for his men and crew. Wow, I salute you a trillion times over. For him and all the rest of the men deserve the metal of honor for bravery to there country, Period.
I am not American. But this song and this entire scene is filled with American vibes. It's as American as any scene can get. Makes one feel proud of America, even if one is not an American.
That's the real spirit of this great country part of my family fell in love with and became part of. I hope they will be getting an administration again that can bring back these values and listen to reason.
Gene Hackman is one of my favorite actors-From this movie to Hoosiers, to Mississippi Burning. A legend. Owen Wilson was an exceptional Pilot considering he is mainly a comedy guy, but he showed what a great actor he is. Ryan Adams is the greatest songwriter of my generation (Im 36) and hes never released a bad album. The Rescue Blues is a top ten song for me and was absolutely PERFECT for this ending.
I really wish I could have served like my grandfather E-9 airforce pops army uncles all marines and brothers marines... my epileptic ass was never allowed but wow everytime I see movies like this makes me wish I could have! People nowadays disrespect our flag and don't understand or realize what we stand for 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
While I respected that Capt. Crozier made a moral and his own personal command decision that he felt was right for his crew, he disobeyed a direct order and went outside the chain of command. That being said, he made a decision that knowingly put his career at an end.
We re never forget yet all goodness of Bu Novi pertama as sistership with my mommy.... We re miss mommy and Bu Novi pertama,,,, we"ll miss u father, mommy and Bu Novi pertama, Bu Sapri, Pak Sapri, Bu Bunawi, Pak Bunawi, and Mbak Wiwik meskipun Teguh begitu nakalnya kala itu
Rescuing Burnett enabled irrefutable proof of war crimes to be recovered and an investigation to be launched. That led to the perpetrator being put behind bars for a very long time. Admiral Reigart shouldn't have lost permanent command of the battle group. He should be disciplined because he broke the rules by launching an unauthorised rescue mission. He certainly needed to be fined, a letter of reprimand and a loss of privileges such as promotion and leave. A letter of reprimand is essentially a scarlet letter. It follows the recipient around whenever they transfer to shore,to a new assignment; the commander will want to know how the reprimand came to be in your permanent record
Truth be told, during special operation training, there have been, incidents, during g the fast rope extract. Hollywood, of course, had the scene correctly executed. Over all, training is not actual combat. In reverse, actual combat also yielded, incidents, of unsuccessful rope extract.
We Germans have a huge, historical burden to carry. Nevertheless, I would like to see a little more encouragement for our troops and a little patriotism these days. Here, the Americans are way ahead of us. Maybe not everything is always obviously right from a political point of view, but how respectfully the American people treat their military personnel is absolutely right. These are the women and men who risk their asses for you. That's just my opinion, of course.

Why is the rescue guy crying so much? And where is the Admiral going at the end? Is he walking to the other end of the aircraft carrier to just chill out? Seems like a Hollywoodism to me.
Who was PM Modi in Jorasanko Abason's Singhibagan Kolkata or in slum who instructed local admiral Leslie reigart to take personal responsibility in official duty. As whispered by my criminal elder brother Debashis Misra then. These stupendous stupids made a mess.After then all you tube posts started come to me from red light ie street light area of Kolkata.
