How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A high-energy military comedy where a tough-as-nails Marine discovers purpose by whipping a group of misfits into shape. It's feel-good chaos with heart, part drill sergeant comedy, part underdog triumph.
