      • Trivia
        In his autobiography, Rob Lowe says he almost died in the performance of a stunt in this film. He was being dragged by a cord behind a speeding boat, and could not break free from the cord. He was pulled closer to the boat, and was in serious danger when one of the Navy SEALs are the crew dived in and rescued him.

      7/10
      Way Under Rated
      It may not be a classic but it is certainly not crap as it is made out to be by IMDB rating. It is a pretty good, in a word, decent movie, with the US Navy Seals training, two rival-turned friends during training days, a love triangle involving them and their assignments during Iraq invasion of Kuwait. I found it a well-rounded enjoyable movie, with the opening soundtrack providing the ideal start to this kind of a story. Nothing got overboard, and the love triangle reminded me shades of Pearl Harbour. No qualms rating it 7/10 as against an unjustifiably low rating of 4.6 by IMDB.
