ThatemW.Mar 24, 20088Great family movie and not a bad little sailing movie too. Recomend it to most. Of course not an action movie either.

JosephB.Dec 13, 20077I thought this movie worked pretty well as a combination of coming-of-age and action-adventure treatments. In the end though, this film is about a tragedy and makes us sad. This proves though that it is successful and well structured, in that we come to care about the characters and mourn their fates. Very watchable and keeps your interest up.

70The story has its corny aspects, but thanks to Scott's skill as an image maker and as a storyteller--proceeding from the very blue and very abstract water seen behind the credits to the climactic, extended storm--this is superior to both "Dead Poets Society" (as a tale about a boys' school and its charismatic teacher) and "Apollo 13" (as a true-life action adventure).

75I enjoyed the movie for the sheer physical exuberance of its adventure. It is magnificently mounted and photographed.

50The psychology of the story is shallow, but the action scenes pack a good visual punch.
