一直以來，黑人青年卡爾（小庫珀·古丁 Cuba Gooding Jr. 飾）都將成為美國海軍中的一員當(dāng)做自己的畢生理想，然而，當(dāng)他真的加入到了海軍隊(duì)伍中去之后，卡爾才發(fā)現(xiàn)，現(xiàn)實(shí)遠(yuǎn)不如想象中美好。在種族歧視之風(fēng)盛行的軍隊(duì)里，卡爾理所當(dāng)然的成為了眾人傷害和排擠的對(duì)象，但個(gè)性堅(jiān)韌的卡爾卻并沒有因此而退縮和氣餒，正相反，他通過比別人多百倍的努力和出色的成績證明了一個(gè)人的成功和失敗與膚色無關(guān)。 　　比爾（羅伯特·德尼羅 Robert De Niro 飾）的出現(xiàn)讓卡爾堅(jiān)定了想要進(jìn)入潛水艇搜救隊(duì)的信念，然而，這支秉性白人至上主義的團(tuán)隊(duì)中，還未曾有過黑人加入的先例。通過近兩年的不懈努力，卡爾終于加入了潛艇隊(duì)的訓(xùn)練計(jì)劃之中并最終成為了其中的一員。同時(shí)，他和比爾之間的緊張關(guān)系也因?yàn)橐淮尾恍业氖鹿识a(chǎn)生了質(zhì)的改變。

這是一個(gè)可愛的 60 歲男人的輕松成長故事。

　　If there's one thing that the men of Rockford Texas love as much as their women, it's their guns. But when a gun incident at a neighborhood school spurs one stay at home mom, Jenna (Andrea Anders), to rethink Rockford's obsessive gun culture, life in this idyllic town is turned upside-down. Much to the chagrin of her husband, (Matt Passmore), Jenna ignites a movement by recruiting the women to withhold sex from the men until every gun in Rockford is vanquished. A wild and hilarious showdown ensues between the sexes. As tensions and libidos rise, the men and women of Rockford must decide what's really important: keeping the peace or getting a piece.
