Review of Men of Honor (2000) by Joey T — 09 Nov 2007
Cuba Gooding, Jr. plays a different type of role in this movie. He is not a retarded man or a hateful or crazy guy like he is in most of his other movies. He is Carl Brashear, the first black navy diver and the first amputee to return to active duty in the navy ever.
He overcame racism and other dirty tricks to succeed. Robert Deniro played the hateful mean master diver in this movie. He was so crazy! Anjaunae Ellis played Brashear's wife. She did not have enough lines in this movie! This movie was so long that you need to see the DVD to see the scenes that were cut out.
That will help you understand the plot better. Carl Brashear recently died in my hometown.
