This is an excellent movie, one Duval's best. Belonging to a military family, and also a child of the south, I really enjoyed it. March 15, 2008

'The Great Santini' is one of those great movies that has fallen between the cracks. It is an engrossing film about a renegade "cracker jack" pilot who is clueless on how to show any gentle emotion to his family or interaction with them or anyone! Is he a selfish controlling jerk? or is there more to the "Great Santini"? The excellent cast and story will keep you glued to the screen in this entertaining, but sad drama that has it's share of lighter moments. I deduct 1 star because of the no frills full screen only release.....why no widesreen was added is beyond me March 10, 2008

Dear Film Company Jackasses,

Surely you know we already hate you for your greed - Why do you add insult to injury by taking fine films like "The Great Santini" and cutting them to Full Screen?

Yet another fine film marred, no doubt, by some big company's desire to cut corners. Burn, Hollywood, burn! April 9, 2007
