	Honor killing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Honor killing is the practice of a family member killing a female relative when the female relative has been considered to have brought "dishonor" to the family, often through unsanctioned sexual activity—often including cases when a woman is raped.
		Honor crimes are acts of violence, usually murder, committed by male family members against female family members who are perceived to have brought dishonor upon the family.
		Honor killings, generally considered premeditated, are typically held to be distinct from Crimes of passion, which occur, not uncommonly, in European and Western societies and throughout the world.

		In "Men of Honor," the petty officers walk around on the bottom of the deep blue sea; that medium, when it's penetrated, doesn't stay blue for long – it turns soupy, dank and cold.
		Thus "Men of Honor" tells the story of the first of them who was fl, and the hell he went through to achieve the rank of master chief petty officer (the highest noncommissioned officer rank) and be classified a master diver.
		"Men of Honor" (128 minutes, at area theaters) is rated R for the language of the Navy.

	DVD Review - Men Of Honor (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-16)
		"Men of Honor" tells the true story of Master Chief Boatswain’s Mate Carl Brashear (Cuba Gooding Jr.), a sharecropper’s son who is forced to leave school at an early age to help support his family.
		"Men of Honor" is presented in anamorphic widescreen preserving the 2.35:1 aspect ratio of the original theatrical release.
		"Men of Honor" is a film that tells a very straightforward story and tries its best to avoid using the easy cliches that one would expect to find in a movie about the triumph of the human will over insurmountable odds.

	Men of Valor - Xbox (XB) Reviews - The Armchair Empire
		With a new team and new attitude, Men of Valor was made to show that the core group still has the same magic of bringing past wars to life.
		Men of Valor’s strengths lie mostly in its presentation and cinematic gameplay.
		Men of Valor gives off a feeling of incompleteness and forces gamers toask “So this is what you’ve been doing all this time 2015?” Men of Valor does a great job delivering Vietnam history and delivering a believable story with plenty of atmosphere, but the bad outweighs the good by a long shot.

	MEN OF HONOR
		Men of Honor was cobbled together with the same cut-rate glue they used to assemble The Perfect Storm.
		The rest of Honor is pretty predictable (aside from a startling and grisly injury to one of the characters).
		Honor is slowed down by obligatory romantic threads involving Brashear’s Harlem librarian (Aunjanue Ellis, In Too Deep) and Sunday’s strange relationship with a beautiful woman played by Charlize Theron (who sleepwalks through her third feature film appearance in less than a month - The Yards and Bagger Vance).

	Men of Honor
		Well, at least, part of it is. While "Men of Honor" is a fascinating and inspiring look at the life of the US Navy's first African-American Master Diver, its effectiveness is periodically weighed down by cliche-ridden characters and an overly-crowded storyline.
		"Men of Honor" could almost be seen as a distant cousin to 1999's "The Hurricane." Both films are based upon actual events, both films confront racism head-on, and both films push the boundaries of creative license to the point where you wonder where the facts end and the fiction begins.
		In "Men of Honor," that task falls to Billy Sunday, who ups the ante on red-neck bigotry to the point where he just doesn't ring true.

		The clandestine meetings Khouri describes in her powerful account, Honor Lost: Love and Death in Modern-Day Jordan, evoke the danger and romance of fairy tales, but the ending is a horror story.
		Honor killings seem to be on the rise, according to Khouri, but data are scarce.
		Now they've integrated hospitals, which puts female nurses at risk, because if they are touching men, and seeing men who are half-naked—which is part of their job—they are open to rumors of being, well, not a good girl.

		However, this is a shame as Men Of Valor is the strongest of the Vietnam squad to be released this year, and comes with one of the highest pedigrees of the lot.
		Men Of Valor is set in the jungle too, but it makes the environment work, the paddies fields and mud-clogged jungles of this game feel tense and claustrophobic.

		Maintaining honor is deemed a woman's responsibility, whether or not she has been educated about sex or consented to the act.
		Family status is largely dependent upon its honor, much of which is determined by the respectability of its daughters, who can damage it irreparably by the perceived misuse of their sexuality.
		The group publicized the recent honor killing of a woman from the Ramallah area, referring to her as a "martyr" of her society, thereby seeking to promote a redefinition of the "dishonorable" woman's status.

	SPLICEDwire \| "Men of Honor" review (2000)
		If the life of Carl Brashear, the first African-American to become a diver in the U.S. Navy, was really like it is depicted in the highly-scripted "Men of Honor," he would have seen coming, well in advance, every hardship he would ever have to face.
		It's hard to sit through "Men of Honor" without being pulled out of the story by the nagging feeling that creative license runs wild and unchecked throughout this blatantly fictionalized screenplay.
		The story arc of "Men of Honor" only has one curveball, which comes in the shapely form of a minor subplot about Sunday's stormy relationship with his beautiful, much younger wife (Charlize Theron in a knockout performance of powerful emotion).

	Men of Honor
		When Fox 2000 Pictures premiered its feature-film production "Men of Honor" in Washington, D.C., last autumn, then-Secretary of Defense William S. Cohen, then-Secretary of the Navy Richard Danzig, and Chief of Naval Operations Adm. Vern Clark were on hand for the screening.
		They joined Navy divers to honor a unique hero--Master Chief Boatswain's Mate (Diver) Carl Brashear, the Navy's first African-American diver--and the first amputee who ever qualified to perform the demanding and hazardous tasks carried out by the Navy's small but elite community of undersea salvage and repair experts.
		Brashear experienced many emotions as he listened to speakers extol his example and legacy at the premiere of "Men of Honor," but the story of his 31-year naval career came down to a few simple truths.

	Honor crime - Al Mashriq
		The randomly chosen cases in which men murdered their female relatives 'to wash away the shame cast on the family' are listed in a study published recently by the Joseph and Laure Moughaizel Association.
		An ISF official at the statistics department noted that many crimes that are initially thought to be 'honor' crimes and are registered as such in the police report turn out to be otherwise after further investigation.
		ISF statistics show that at least eight cases in a period of three years which were claimed by family members to be 'honor' crimes turned out to be crimes because of inheritance or personal disputes.

		Men of Honor tackles military racism during the '50s and '60s in a straightforward manner.
		The so-called "men of honor" are, of course, Carl and Master Chief Sunday.
		Undoubtedly, Men of Honor's clumsy approach will find its share of supporters, and, to be truthful, there are stretches of the movie (including Carl's struggle to pass his final exam and his underwater encounter with a Russian submarine) when it offers solidly engaging material.

		The most dreaded words that can be heard during a movie trailer are "based on a true story" or "inspired by actual events." Such code phrases usually signal that film makers have taken a thin thread of fact and embroidered it into a garish tapestry of their own invention.
		Men of Honor is touted as "inspired by the life of Carl Brashear," the first African-American to achieve the rank of Master Chief Diver.

	Men of Honor movie review
		Men of Honor is the true story of Carl Brashear, the first african-american to become a master diver in the U.S. Navy.
		Master Chief Sunday explains that divers are not fighting men, but rather they are into rescue, salvage, search, etc. The movie stays true to this and does not compromise the story just by slipping in a couple of good booms just to punch up the trailers.
		Men of Honor is extremely well done with two very strong performances from Gooding and De Niro.
