This movie shows the life of a man who was lost as sea for 46 days and then captured by the Japanese during WWII. He was held in a horrible prison for several years before they were liberated at the end of the war. The book was better. A lot of his life was left out of the movie which mostly showed his time in the POW camp. I would have liked to have more of his sports life and his life after the war, but it is still a good movie. A bit intense, I had to look away a few times.

This film is a travesty. It eliminates crucial elements from the book, including the entire point of the story, and is an empty shell without them. Please read the book. This true story is extremely important, and deserves to be told. Unfortunately, this movie doesn't tell it. If you want to know the truth, read the book. It is apparently too controversial to be shown in a Hollywood film.

I read the book and the movie mostly followed the story line. However the movie could not duplicate the intense suffering by Louie Zamperini and the other prisoners. I didn't think the movie captured Zamperini's Christian conversion correctly. His wife and friend persuaded him to attend a Billy Graham revival where he was enlightened to accept Christ and forgive his captors. I believe reading the book first helped to better appreciate the story.

I really enjoyed the story and the acting was excellent, however, the directing could have been better. There were a lot of meaningful and historic scenes that were not put together well, which made a movie that should have been riveting drag on instead. Still well worth the watch since it was based on a true story.

It a good Hollywood tale about a troubled youth who found track and field as a escape. Then went into the military at WW 2. A great story of survival and determination. A well put together story.
