MARINES (2025): Inside the Heart of America’s “Force in Readiness” — Netflix’s Bold and Human Look at the 31st MEU
There’s a moment early in MARINES when the camera lingers on the horizon — a steel-blue line between sea and sky. A helicopter cuts across the Pacific dawn, the rotor’s thrum echoing like a heartbeat. Below, young Marines stand in formation on the deck, their faces half in shadow, half in light. This is not war. It’s preparation, transformation, and the uncertain calm before both. Netflix’s new docuseries MARINES isn’t about combat; it’s about the people who train for it — and what it means to come of age in one of the world’s most disciplined military forces.
