Agree; however, I made the mistake of watching, 'The Art of Racing in the Rain' Sunday. I had DVD'ed the thing.
I thought it was going to be a movie about racing cars, you know, in moisture.
By the time I figured out it was the single most maudlin, sappy, over the top, tear snatch and jerk movie of all time I was in for the duration...I could not stop watching.
Jesus, I go in for "Heart String Recovery" surgery tomorrow.
Again, having sailed around the world flying off Frigates and Destroyers doing ASW and many other missions, I can't wait to watch Greyhound. I have been on the bridge of an FFG in big seas and lived the green room experience. Many times. Also, "man-bed separation": The pitch rate as the ship enters and exits the wave will lift you out of your rack. Every bunk and rack has belts to keep you in.
Spoiler alert: Any helos?
