The characters were okay, but they went through the same scenarios again, and again, and again, and again, and again...
I had heard that Zamperini had a very interesting life after the war. Unfortunately, the movie ended on the tarmac upon his return to the U.S. Why?
I must agree with the other posters - for a 2.5+ hour movie, I would have expected the whole story.... or at least more than half of it.
The emotionality was there in Wantanabe, Zamperini, and several of his mates. I just grew tired of the same thing repeated over and over.
It is interesting how the coal carrying sequence was so long... like how the viewers had to carry the movie all the way to the 137 minute mark...
