Customer Rating:      Summary: Haze Gray and Underway Comment: Possibly the best documentary about life on an aircraft carrier. I've been there, done that, and have the ball cap, and parts of Carrier took me back to when I was deployed on one. At the end, I wanted it to go on, it was that good. It should be required viewing for anyone contemplating joining the Navy, but it is not in any sense a recruiting film.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Carrier Comment: Reality show on the high seas. If you love flying you will love most of
the flight scenes. Better than "Top Gun". Shows the real Navy, warts and all. I enjoyed most of the characters and got involved with their stories. One I did not care for was a real loser but he ended up off the ship. Would almost like a follow-up on characters to know what happened to them a year or so after this was shot.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Boring and not what I expected Comment: The series and title promise an in-depth view behind the curtains of a marvellous piece of technology. Instead I always felt like watching a boy-scout documentary with the toys of an overkilling weaponery. If this is what the navy feels like, then I am surprised. Comradery, a cruise to see the world and playing with billion-dollar equipment... Is it really like that on such a ship? I doubt it.
I wished to see more tech details and if getting philosophical: a more inside look into the hearts and souls of those (mostly) teenies on that ship. I find it rather unbelieveable and I can smell the censorship on every take of this movie. The footage itself is very nice.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Carrier - A look at Naval life in 21st Century Comment: This is a ten part view of what it is like to live on a Carrier in the 21st Century US Navy. there are happy and very sad times, but overall a balanced view of all the different personalities that are on a Carrier.
Customer Rating:      Summary: carrier Comment: "CARRIER" WAS A FATHERS DAY GIFT FOR MY HUSBAND. HE WAS IN THE NAVY
50 YEARS AGO. HE WAS AMAZED OF THE CHANGES AND REALLY ENJOYED THE DVD
