Pierwszy oficer namawia go jednak, by złożył podanie do elitarnej szkoły wojskowej dla nurków. Po dwóch latach starań Carl zostaje zakwalifikowany do programu szkoleniowego. Na kursie w Bayonne starszy bosman sztabowy nie kryje rasistowskich uprzedzeń. Pomimo poniżania i piętrzenia trudności czarnoskóry kursant nie zamierza rezygnować. Znany z podwodnych wyczynów Leslie W. "Billy" Sunday jest zaskoczony siłą charakteru Carla. (Canal+)

Affected American soap-operatic sludge with a cast that evokes grand ambitions. But all the masters stumble.

It’s a film that deserves about a 60% rating. It's still an interesting story, even though it's presented with an incredible amount of pathos, which was evident from the beginning and, of course, fully utilized. It's a shame because Cuba Gooding Jr. and Robert De Niro deliver brilliant performances again, especially Robert. But in the end, it's just another movie about the steadfastness of the human spirit.

Robert De Niro's pissed-off pose was already seen in much better form (supported by a better script and director), and Cuba Gooding Jr. also doesn't exactly show off his acting skills. It's not that George Tillman Jr. completely failed in the director's chair, Men of Honor has decent potential, a few solidly thrilling, pathetic, and romantic scenes that will evoke mostly mixed emotions, but it suffers from a lack of creativity and a certain unfinished syndrome. Unfortunately, it also doesn't lack those typically wannabe strong and profound moments, which fortunately, aren’t many, so they can be endured and a three-star rating can better capture the average.
