Movie Reviews of Carrier
Movie Review: Best Documentary -- EVER
Summary: 5 Stars
Over the years, I've been exposed to untold numbers of good, bad and indifferent documentaries. CARRIER is the best -- EVER.
Working on a ship which offered, at best, difficult working situations, the camera crews, editors, etc., were able to tell several stories about the young men and women of the Nimitz. In fact, a follow-up documentary, a "where are they now" 2 hour program would be well received.
Kudos to the director and to whomever conceived this idea.
Movie Review: Unusual application
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this DVD set to use as the framework for a set of lessons on non fiction writing for my high school students. It turns out that the kids LOVE this set and have taken to the story of the men and women on board the Nimitz very enthusiastically. The quality of the video and the depth of the story is first rate. I would recommend it to anyone as a piece to watch and learn from and to any teacher interested in motivating their students.Movie Review: Great Series!!
Summary: 5 Stars
Watched this on PBS originaly and was glued to my seat for 5 nights when it aired in early 2009. Visually stunning with Sound editing like you're on the ship especially when played through home theater systems. Very insightful + entertaining and well done with inter-weaving of a few of the individual's stories throughout the series while getting the overall big picture of life in the military on a mondern carrier.Movie Review: Real American Heroes
Summary: 5 Stars
"Carrier" allows the rest of the world to see what the United States Navy and Marine Corp Soldiers do everyday, and their heroism to keep our country free. It obviously is not easy living on a ship for several months at a time, but it shows that our lives are easy compared to theirs. These men and women should be our heroes! I recommend his set of CD's to anyone interested in our military today and how they live.Movie Review: Carrier
Summary: 5 Stars
This was a gift for my husband, Retired USN. He enjoyed the memories of his time on carriers. Although much of the documentary was based on personal lives aboard the Nimitz from Officer to lowest of Enlisted rates, there was good footage of activity aboard the carrier. Politics are a bit controversial, etc. Shore leave interesting - there are many sailors who don't just party when they are on leave, etc.
