Tiger Cruise (August 6, 2004) is the 53rd Disney Channel Original Movie. It stars Hayden Panettiere (Remember the Titans) and Bill Pullman (Independence Day). The film's fictional events are intertwined with the real-life events of the September 11, 2001 attacks.
Plot Summary
Maddie Dolan is on a mission to convince her dad to give up his naval career and come home to his family where he belongs. To do this, Maddie accepts her dad's offer to participate in Operation Tiger, a week-long cruise for family and friends aboard his aircraft carrier.
Maddie thinks her plans might actually work until
September 11, 2001, two days into the cruise. When the ship goes into high alert, Maddie gets to see her father's courage, honor and commitment to his family firsthand and discovers the importance of the sacrifice he makes to serve his country, and she now understands why her dad wants to (and has to) serve.
Tiger Cruise is a fictional story inspired by actual events on what happened aboard the USS Constellation (CV-64), as well as 9/11.
Inconsistencies
When the Constellation arrives at San Diego, California, Downtown San Diego is featured in the background showing the Twin Hyatts where only the first one had been completed by September 2001, roughly around the time of the terrorist attacks.
Much of the movie was shot onboard
John C. Stennis (CVN-74) with additionally filming onboard
Nimitz (CVN-68) (the
Constellation was
decommissioned before production started). The hull numbers of all three ships are visible at various times throughout the movie. Actual crewmembers of the
Stennis were used as extras, and a few can be seen wearing
Stennis ballcaps instead of the prop
Constellation caps.
