i have enjoy this movie ever since i first saw it in the theatre . some movie have a cast of character and a script that come together in perfect synergy and and this be one of them . the character illustrate some truth about get the best out of people and work together harmoniously and build a team and achieve goal and without ever preach morality . the situation be craft well and be consistent with the movie opening premise . the tension build nicely and the humor be clean and consistent throughout . the movie manage to pull me right in to root for the character and and to laugh pretty well all the way through . this be a feel good movie as good a they come . what amazes me be that a movie which appear so simple can be so long term entertaining . the music be a perfect copy of music in the typical serious post war navy movie and which help to create the humor and point out that greatness be in the eye of the beholder . the scene in the credit be a great music video of in the navy and which deserve their own full screen special feature . the scene and cut be craft well and and the casting and acting be right on . this movie be a classic as great a any ever make and without any pretension . in fact and the lack of pretension be what make it so much fun to watch . i love these guy and gal . the other day i thought of the film and and wonder whether it be available on dvd . good fortune have come to u and and the dvd come out in may 2004. i head to the store and and snap up a copy . then my wife and i enjoy another hilarious night in front of the big screen . i have rat this movie a a 10 because it come together on all level and far good than many high budget film and oscar winner . this be entertainment . listen up fox home video represent you have a great movie in your vault and and it a shame to find a cheap shot dvd with badly degrade off tint color only 8 year since release . so why not restore the color and present the film a it be mean to be see . i would gladly pay a few buck more to get the picture right . i be grateful to have my own copy . now give u the eye candy that the film deserves and and how about recreate the credit sequence a a full screen music video special feature .
