    When I watched the film, I noticed that the film was very interesting and adventurous. I found out in the end it was it and in the part of the ending it was very dramatic when they all died in the storm. So my reaction is real positive

    1 of the most expansive movies ever.
    So, I bet the producers have lost money, cause it's not 1 of the most seen movies ever; not at least of the year...

    In real life though- being from the area I can tell you- not only did this totally happen- but they are "always from Gloucester."

    The film starts up pretty slowly but when they head up for sea... it's showtime! The CGI storm sequences are one of the best I've seen. Saw it the first time when it was released and now again, and I can say that in comparison to films of today, it stands tall.

    But is the movie any good? Like you all know, it's based on a true story. But did they really make the decisions they did in the movie? Probably not, cuz in the movie, they broke the first rule that all seaman obey. They didn't respect the power and will of the sea and tried to earn some money instead by making stupid choices. And as a seaman myself, that disturbed me a lot!

    Sure, it's entertaining and the ending is intense but it's hard to believe that the guys (R.I.P) would've chosen chance instead of choice...

    have you ever watched a movie that you could just watch over and over again and not get bored, this movie was that movie for me. i really enjoyed watching it, the beginning was great, but the ending was just spectacular, it was sad, but that is the truth about what actually happens and that why it is so sad. i have heard true sea stories, but the affect of actually seeing it in a movie puts it perspective. it tells people that if you are going to see, dont expect everything to be so great, its not always a life of pleasure to be at sea. alot of people dont always see that, and if you watch this movie you will see that, so that is why i recommend that everyone who wants to know the truth about the sea should sit through this visually spectacular movie
