Quite a feel good drama
7 June 2020
Tells the take of a failing business man (Danny DeVito) being down on his luck then getting sent to an army as a new found job to team a bunch of underclass army types into passing a course.

Now it may seem relatively simple but there are a few interesting subplots along the way to keep interest.

Had little expectations but came away enjoying the film more than expected. The comedy side of the film isn't what's best, but more so the drama aspect. It is quite an inspirational tale and has several touching and feel good parts.

The aspects about Hamlet and Shakespeare made it more engaging as such. As well as the occasional army drill training scenes. It was a solid blend of both.

Although it may be predictable, we enjoy it for the characters as there are several and we see the development in these characters from start to finish. It is left with a satisfying ending.
