>>I don't enjoy movies that are billed as "true life" and then cheapen up the effects. I've heard comments from several people that the computer animation looks just that. In this type of movie, if I see an explosion, I want it to be believable. Same reasoning why I never saw Gladiator. I looked at the trailers and said "that tiger looks computer generated"... and it turns out it was.

Except for one thing. The ship was wrong. It was a modern day destroyer, not one from WWII.
