Men of Honor - 9 stars out of 10

Men of Honor - 9 stars out of 10

Wow, could this guy be anymore of a real-life last action hero? Cuba Gooding Jr. plays the victim of extreme racism as he attempts to become the Navy's first African American Master Diver. His role is emotional and fantastic as he never quits, no matter how dire the circumstances get. I had trouble believing that this was a true st...ory, even after reading multiple synopses. This very well could beat his performance in Jerry Maguire (though it'll be tough to ever rival his performance in Radio). DeNiro plays the jerk so well, making you truly want to see him find redemption. This film has a little bit of everything - action, drama, a courtroom scene, layers of emotion, and most importantly, inspiration.
