Title: Pretty boats
Review: I really, really, really wanted to like this movie. Not only did it get great reviews, but it is set on a wooden square rigger. The golden age of sail! There were all these stories about how Peter Weir did all this research to really get the authenticity. Wow! I thought. Well, all that doesn't amount to squat if you don't have a story or characters that are interesting. And what about a cohesive timeline? One day they are off the coast of brazil, then next in the cape, having the same conversation! Who was it that died overboard when poor Crowe had to cut the mast off? It took a few minutes to figure out what was happening every new scene. Those boats are pretty though . . .Rent Horatio Hornblower instead.
Is the review positive or negative?
