I liked it.  It has one problem.  It is over-melodramatic in
sections.  And sometimes the writers got carried away with the
plot (those who have seen know what I'm refering to).

My military friends felt that the training camp was well
depicted.  In general, this is a good movie to take a date
to since it does build good emotion and won't leave you
depressed when you leave the theatre.  A movie like this
is really good for leaving your girlfriend in a romantic mood.

The acting by the sarge was superb.  He really made the movie.
I recommend it for those who like to go to a movie for real
entertainment.  It will accomplish that.
