Leave your thoughts about Taking Chance.
| Washington PostTom ShalesTaking Chance gives us all the opportunity to render honor. |
| Filmcritic.comJason McKiernanThis is a film about respect and dignity, both in death and in life. And we hope that we may be treated with the same level of careful attention. |
| Hollywood & FineMarshall FineIt dramatizes a true story in a way that will break your heart without ever feeling manipulative or gratuitous. |
| CinemaBlend.comJoshua TylerA tedious 85 minutes of Kevin Bacon saluting. |
| User ReviewAnthony VGreat movie. would recommend it to everyone. |
| User ReviewEd ZThis is a movie that shows the other side of the war (Iraq war). Something that the USA gov' didn't want to show. |
| User ReviewDennis MThe powerful true story of a Marine officer that volunteers to escort the body of a fallen Marine back to his hometown. I was moved by the respect and care that is shown to those that have given their lives for our country. |
| User ReviewAaron HA must see movie that takes you through the journey of a fallen soldier and his escort home. They take you behind the scenes to show how the body is taken care of and respected. Brought a tear to my eye and a knot to my throat often. |
| User ReviewPedro AA heartfelt, tear-jerking, real life masterpiece of film and a golden globe award for Kevin Bacon. |
| User ReviewJason PNo matter you beliefs, you MUST pay yor respect!!!!!! |
