    Bad title, good movie

    Don't know much about the PT-218 but this movie should be titled the SS Lawton B Evans. It is based in large part on the actions of her crew during the Battle of Anzio from Jan 22-30 1944. Crews from ships and boats did occasionally perform raids ashore on enemy targets. The most famous of which is arguably the crew off the USS Barb (SS-220) which was responsible for the destruction of a Japanese train ashore. The Merchant Marines suffered the highest casualty rate during WW II of all the US Armed Services.

    REBELS OF PRT-218

    Interesting story about the Armed Guard gunners on a Liberty ship but the title is misleading, as there is only a very brief appearance of any PT-boat in the very beginning of the movie. Said to be based on true events but have not verified. Biggest downside is the EXTREMELY poor acting, especially of Eric Roberts and the actors who play other senior officers. All wear helmets while inside bunkers or buildings (never told where) and the dialog is stilted and over-emphasized. There were no "rebels" and there was no PT-218 identified. As for special effects, pretty cheap. Lots of gunfire, few hits, and none of them realistic.

    Pt 218

    Not sure what I was expecting, but was very disappointed in the overall experience. Very little about Pt 218, seemed to be very poorly done.

    Not worth it

    Acting is so bad and low budget. The CGI is terrible. I didn't even finish watching half of the movie on its overall.
