Plot [edit]

In 1945, the Portland-class heavy cruiser USSIndianapolis, commanded by Helm Charles McVay (Nicolas Cage), delivers parts of the atomic flop that would later exist used to bomb Hiroshima at the end of World War II. While patrolling in the Philippine Sea, on July thirty in 1945, the unescorted transport is torpedoed and sunk by the Imperial Japanese Navy (IJN) submarine I-58, taking 300 crewmen with information technology to the lesser of the Philippine Sea, while the remainder climb out of the ship and were left stranded at sea for 5 days without food and water in shark-infested waters.

With no hope for five days, nigh of the remaining coiffure-members were eaten by sharks or would die of salt h2o poisoning by drinking seawater (which too caused some of those injured to dice from seasickness and infectious wounds). Others swam off from their groups later on hallucinating of a non-real island, never to be seen once again. On the 5th day, the surviving crew were rescued by an airplane pilot who spotted them by take a chance and called for a rescue. Merely 316 survived the disaster. Looking for a scapegoat for their own gross negligence, the US Navy court-martials and convicts Captain McVay for "hazarding his send by failing to zigzag", despite overwhelming evidence supporting McVay (such as even having the former captain of the IJN's I-58 submarine to testify for the trial, which proved McVay to be not at fault). It ends with Helm McVay committing suicide years after the tragedy after being harassed and tormented with phone calls and mail from aroused and grief-stricken relatives of the deceased crew-members, likewise as the media (more often than not in the grade of newspapers, which placed the blame on him for the ship's sinking). In the moving-picture show's postscript they testify President Bill Clinton exonerating Captain McVay of all charges on Oct 30, 2000.

In a subplot, Indianapolis crewmember Mike D'Antonio falls in honey with his childhood friend Brian "Bama" Smithwick's friend and love involvement Clara. Smithwick is a shipmate of D'Antonio and diver on the doomed send. D'Antonio purchases an engagement ring before the trip to Tinian to propose to the girl who tells D'Antonio earlier the trip that she is expecting their outset child. During a brawl involving 2 of the crewmen, D'Antonio loses the band and i of the coiffure members, Alvin, steals it. After the transport is destroyed, Smithwick and D'Antonio spend the next few days in the ocean with the rest of the crew where D'Antonio succumbs to massive leg injuries received in a shark set on and Smithwick is given the engagement ring by Alvin. Bama proposes to Clara to help her raise her child and she accepts his proposal.

While the credits roll, ii Navy sailors recount the sharks in the waters and existent rescue footage is shown forth with many still shots of lost sailors.

The United states of america Navy helped with the completion and finalization of the terminal draft of the script.[5] [xi] Walt Conti of Edge Innovations would provide the animated sharks, and the product reportedly secured two fully operational World War II-era planes to portray the planes that were involved in the existent rescue operations afterward the disaster.[8] Silo Inc. and Hydroflex were attached to handle digital furnishings and underwater filming for the motion-picture show, respectively.[5] USSAlabama and USSPulsate would both be used along with the Battleship Memorial Park to draw Indianapolis and the Japanese submarine.[8] The flick is dedicated to the men of the USS Indianapolis and their families.

His consensus was the film was "non exactly unwatchable", simply also "completely not worthy of watching", with its "lazy inattention to period detail", summing it upward every bit "ii-hours plus of bumbling and pandering".[21] Neil Genzlinger of The New York Times criticized the film'southward "lack of subtlety" in dealing with such an "almost unbelievable" story. He called the characters' storylines away from the main plot "flimsy" and the special furnishings "rickety", and noted that the film's "leaden" treatment of the central story "suck[ed] all the drama out of it".[22]
