I respect the atmosphere of the ship... but they were definitely going for realism and the canon ball thing was a big slip up in my mind as far as realism goes, although thats the one thing. Pretty much, I didn't like it because it was boring as hell.

oh man apart from 20 minutes, the movie was sooooo bad, the pace was too slow for the film it seemed like hours.......this is what to do w/the mind behind the slow pace of the film
I loved it. Some people expected all-action, but that's not the point of the story. It shows the relationship between the Captain and the Doctor. It was a good movie.
Which I could have cared less about so it bored me. Its not that the dialog was so impressive either (not saying it was bad, but the dialog just wasn't enough to carry the movie for me).

If you couldnt find the relationship between the Captain and Doctor interesting then thats really all of what there is to the movie.So that why you didnt like it
excitement does not necissarily make a good story..........more often than not excitement is thrown into a film to lull the audience into forgetting that the actual story they are watching is not a very good one.
exactly!!!! i love emotional movies...they make u think...action movies usually don't have as good of a story, they're just there to make u jump outa ur seat, or laugh, or scream or whatever...but the emotional ones make u think...i THINK that's what master and commander was supposed to be about...it wasn't "boring" or anything...it was just supposed to be more emotional
