The title Faith of My Fathers sounds like a Christian movie, right?
Well...this isn't.
Though an interesting look at the life and struggles of John McCain, as close to Christian as this film gets is the prisoners singing "Silent Night" on Christmas.
It's also rife with profanity; while I've heard from my friends in the military that such language is to be expected, as someone who has never served, it was a big shock to my old-school sensibilities, as was the scene involving a stripper.
The out-of-order chronology at the beginning was also annoying.
On the plus side, it shows the horrors of war very well; one scene made me feel like I was watching Saw instead, not that I would ever bother with such garbage.
With Senator McCain departed from this earth, it's good to know that his story has been preserved for all posterity...including in celluloid form.
