Best way to describe my experience with this film is to put it this way imagine ordering a shot of the best Kentucky bourbon only to discover upon tasting it had been watered down!
It's watchable but if you're looking for an emotionally meaningful film it missed that boat by a mile!

It's funny that people who go through bad times tend to complain more than those who suffer the most, because like the saying goes, "there will always be someone who goes through harder times than you."
Zamperini's life serves as an inspiration for a man who faced both physical and spiritual challenges. Through his faith, he could strengthen his beliefs despite times when most people would tell God to,…
