Bob Loblaw I saw it on Christmas Day and thought it was pretty phenomenal even though the book was way better. It left out a lot (unsurprisingly) but what they DID show I thought did some justice to the book. I recommend it.

He died 5 years ago today. I remember this story on Sunday Morning. I saw the film and read the book. This wonderful man was a true hero. Not because of what happen to him in the war, but how he lived his life after. He refused to be bitter and angry. He lived his life. God Bless Him! I hope that someday Unbroken is made again. It was good, but I thought it was lacking in telling his story. Thank you Louis for your service to your country! Thank you for being you!

I met him and heard him speak in his mid 90’s. Remarkable man.

I wish I saw him in person at least once

If I could of talked to him just once in person, I'm sure my life would have been changed forever. He is one of those few people on earth that could change your life with just a conversation.

..I'd say because in the end God changed his life for good. He started off life wild & unlovable yet determined thus his successes. Shaking hands with Hitler however was no great thing & yes he did do well in areas of his life but it doesn't mean he was a great person. His alcoholism almost lost him his wife & his life..but then God..Jesus Christ gave him a new heart! Perhaps Jesus is really the One you should talk to. Look at the miraculous things He did..the cruel things He endured & the death He died willingly for mankind. He alone, was no ordinary man!

We need more men like Lou Zamperini, John Basilone, Audie Murphy examples of true human spirit.

Indeed, and I can see why they call the movie unbroken in the first place. Even in the darkest hours that louie had he never gwve up hope, and even when he was imprisoned in a japanese detention camp he took all of their torture and still kept persevering, and even after the war louie found and mustered the courage to forgive the japanese for what they had put him through. Truly he is one of gods greatest creations, and a very good inspiration to people around the world. May you rest in peace louie, you were a good man, no a awesome man.

Rest in Peace you icon of all that should still exist in the world today. This man is a SPARKLING example of why these men were from "The Greatest Generation". I will see this movie opening night. Rest Softly Mr Zampini. You live the life of dozens and will inspire the lives of endless to come. RIP

i saw the movie today, it was truly amazing god bless louis, he was a remarkable person. he is with god now.

Baddass to the core, through and through. God bless this American hero and let him serve as a beacon of our resilience.

Thank you Louis for sharing your life with us!

as a japanese, luois's story makes me cry. You have to remember that normal Japanese people really admired him during the 1936 olympics, just like everyone admire Usain Bolt now. Watanabe was truly the epitome of evil and had small man syndrome as he wanted to be like his brother but never made it so he took his jealousy and rage out on everyone else. He was also probably bipolar, which made this the worst combination possible. RIP Lou, you are missed bro.

This guy is/was absolutely amazing.. truly an American hero. He was the quintessence of all the best qualities of a man and of an American. As of this posting there were 7 haters... how pathetic

What an incredible life journey this man had. I wish I could have met him

That was and Amazing story and Heroics that very few could have lived thru. God bless.

I am reading UNBROKEN. But I won't be viewing the DVD till I've finished reading the book. God bless you, Louis.

When I went to go see the movie for Unbroken, yes I read the book first, the end of the movie was unforgettable. Not what was on the screen, because I knew that part, but how the majority of the audience applauded.

I've not watched the movie. The book about him was so good.

Great man, inspiring.

My 8th graders love you. I'm a pilot, too. I have experience with engineering failures. My dad saved my life when we lost our left prop. I make louie real for my students. He is an eternal role model

what a real man! All that Zamp went through and somewhere at some time he found a way too free his soul from all the past torture that the bird had put the zamp through. He found Jesus Christ and the heart too forgive the bird for all the pain, suffering, beatings, and mental torture that another man could do to another. FORGIVENESS was his freedom WOW.

Amazing story.

Louie Zamperini , returned to Kwajalein Atoll, Republic of the Marshall Islands from June 2001 to July 2001, I was on same island as overseas contractor with Raytheon when he was giving this one interview to Kevin Barnes, another contractor who also worked with Raython Technical Services, Louis Zamperini spent 58 yrs away from what was known as "Execution Island" in WW2 the Central Pacific Ocean, he gave a 1 hr 45 min interview exclusively with Kevin Barnes in the hot tropics , Louis never missed a beat, he narrated and told his story. The interviewer said he never got a questioned in until 10 minutes near end of interview. Lou recounted every faceted detail of his POW status while being held on Kwajalein for that time in May 1943 . Truly fascinating 👌

I don’t think anyone could really in their own strength. In a different interview I believe from CBN he said once he committed his life to Jesus he was able to find strength in God and forgive. As the Word says with God nothing is impossible. And as Loui said “hating someone is self destructive, it only hurts yourself.” Angelina also said she’s never known anyone with so much joy and love and he’s funny… this is how we are blessed when we choose to submit our lives into heavenly poppa God. He fills us with himself… love joy peace faith strength endurance etc

His forgiveness brought his heroism all the way up to 100%. And because his nightmares stopped it was really a relief that his tormentor could no longer hold evil power over Louie.

He saw the uncut version with Angelina Jolie in his hospital room before he passed away.

When I first retired I worked at Macy's in the men's clothing department and he bought a couple pairs of pants from me. As we chatted a bit I realized who he was. A very nice guy with a BIG personality!!

Who this likes this?!?!? I love this old man

Best movie in years. I suppose it's time for me to finally read the book. There is so much we can learn from this mans life, he's a real inspiration, including his spiritual awakening.

Selute for the brave man

I have the book but completely forgot about it until seeing this video and seeing the cover of the book at the beginning of the video and have found a great interest to wanting to read this book

A truly great man.

Rest in peace 🫡🫡🫡🫡🫡🫡

This guy s legacy is forever gonna live on what a man

More people should walk away from feelings of bitterness.

Boy after watching this movie it makes me hate! However, I love God and therefore I can't hate! War is Hell! I hope "The Bird" gets what he deserves in the deepest parts of hell! For one man to treat another man like the way he treated him just deserves no forgiveness by no body! However, everybody deserves their day in Judgement and I'm pretty sure what God almighty has in store for such a coward! As for Angie Jolee!!!!! Great job sweetheart! This was a masterpiece! You did well honey:) Your Dad should be pleased!!!!

The real deal. Beautiful soul. RIP Louie!

no it wasn't forgiveness when he was in the middle of the ocean in a raft with 3 people he said if he got out of his situation he would dedicate his life to the ways of heaven, he had forgotten, become full of depression a drunkenness, he remembered at the billy gram service what he said on the raft and was healed mentaly, never dreaming or fearing the memories again

Job Zamperini's real life counterpart while The Bird's counterpart is the boiled one.

4:20 Just shake his hand dammit

Just finished the book! Louis Zamperini was an adventurous rambunctious youth, an Olympian hero who competed with and against Jesse Owens, and then became a World War II soldier in the United States Air Force. He was a survivor of a plane crash and went adrift for 2,000 miles on the Pacific Ocean for 47 days with no water or food while he was surrounded by sharks and vultures. Zamperini was rescued by the Japanese and then routinely beaten as a POW and as an enemy combatant under the care of the most notorious psychopath in a secret prison camp. Subject to starvation, all kinds of emotional and psychological abuse, Zamperini was finally scheduled to be massacred with his friends and fellow captives when the A-bombs were dropped on Japan. Allied victory would eventually bring him home to Torrence, California - his home. Then the nightmares, the PTSD and a battle with addiction began. No one it seemed could help him - but him. Although Zamperini's powerful legs had once set world records at a young age; it turned out that his forgiveness was his most awesome strength. It was a kind of forgiveness that religion at it's best teaches. It took seven years for the author of "Unbroken" to write the story in the sunset of this remarkable man's life. Skip the movie and read the book. You will want to know every last detail. That's what a good book does.

Louis got to live a life of fame and humility and hopfeully his nigtmares of his time in the POW camps did not follow him in his death, while his torturer the bird may not have been punished for he life lived a weathly life shrouded in his shame so much so he could never admit his shame nor ever meet Louis The bird died with wealth but with dishonor on his spirit

Correct me if I'm wrong, what I read was the "green hornet" went down due to mechanical difficulties in a search mission but in the movie trailer the plane was shot down...

Andre Y s there were two different planes. Zamperini had to switch planes to the Green Hornet because his previous plane almost downed in the sea before too. They did a bombing on a Japanese occupied island and they were shot and almost didn’t have enough fuel to get back home. So the green hornet wasn’t shot down, it was the first that was almost I believe.
