Mission Of The Shark: Saga of The USS Indianapolis

A true wartime drama based on actual events starring Stacy Keach, Richard Thomas and David Caruso.

The USS Indianapolis is the ship that delivered the atomic bomb that would be used to destroy Hiroshima. After completing this mission, the ship is hit with a Japanese torpedo.  Due to the secrecy of the mission their rescue is delayed for five days and the shipwrecked sailors have to fight to stay alive in the Philippine Sea.

This movie was filmed in 1991. At first glance I thought boy these guys look young, then I realized 1991 was almost twenty years ago not ten. LOL

I give this one 3.5 stars.
