Wikipedia<\/strong><\/em> said;<\/p>\n

"One review from The Baltimore Sun,<\/em> said that it "… is one of the most eloquent and socially conscious films the premium cable channel has ever presented," and USA Today,<\/em> said "A small, almost perfectly realized gem of a movie, Taking Chance<\/em> is also precisely the kind of movie that TV should be making.""<\/p>\n

"Taking Chance<\/strong><\/em> is a 2009 historical drama film based upon the experiences of Marine Lt. Colonel Michael Strobl (Kevin Bacon), who escorted the body of a fallen Marine, PFC Chance Phelps (posthumously promoted to LCpl), back to his hometown from the Iraq War."<\/p>\n

Praised in part for not taking a political "side" in the Iraq conflict, this fine film tells us why we should be proud of our Marines and the military in general.<\/p>\n

Here in the U.S., we are so fortunate that the founding fathers had the courage to lay their lives, fortunes and sacred honor on the table to give us a chance to live in freedom. May we respect all that have held to, fought for and defended those priceless rights. ##<\/p>\n
