I rarely recommend many movies but “Semper Fi” might be the best I’ve seen this year! Beautifully directed, acting is so on point that you invest with the characters in this heart warming tale of loyalty, brotherhood, friendship and high jinx! The ending had me on the edge of my seat and I’ll be honest I shed a few tears of joy with them. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a high level indie that over delivers throughout, left me smiling and I don’t mind that! 10/10
