Overall good movie but has some weak points
I was fortunate enough to see this movie on pre-release last night and, though I wasn’t expecting to, actually really enjoyed the movie for the most part. The rescues and sea effects were amazing to watch and definitely provided edge of the seat tense moments, probably all the more so knowing that there are guys who do this for a living. The weaker parts of the movie revolve largely around using stereotypical set scenes. I’m not going to spoil the movie but this really follows along the lines of An Officer and a Gentleman and those moments give it a little bit of a cheesy aftertaste.Like I said over all this movie is pretty good and worth checking out as long as you can get past the clichés.
The film that didn’t know when to stop
There’s a point in ‘The Guardian’ where it reaches its logical conclusion and I expected the credits to roll and was mentally ready to leave, but they didn’t and another section which could have ended the film followed, with another two after that.Ostensibly a recruiting film for the US Coastguard, ‘The Guardian’ works best when Costner is trying to get through to Kutcher just as others had tried with Tom Cruise in previous films. The ‘Top Gun’ meets ‘An Officer and a Gentleman’ via ‘Men of Honor’ ninety minute training section of the film works well and is entertaining, but when this is over it really drags.
