Master And Commander

Started by Stormy Day6 pages

Like I said it will only appeal to certain audiences.

I liked it it was very cool and it was boring at times but still thats how ships where run back then.And like I said dont you at least respect it?

I liked it a lot, ok there's no action or almost no action in it but that's not needed to make a great movie.

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.

Personaly I never found it boring

It depeneds on how you look at it.I found it boring at first and then I found it interesting after a while

And about the cannons that HollyWood for ya 😉

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 sniper

lol

Its not that bad.

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.

Yeah its not about action 🙂 its about character development and story.

exactly...thanx for saving me the trouble of a long winded explaination guys...basically what stormy day and i am a sock just said...

anytime bro 😉

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).

dunno Myth I enjoyed it, but idd the dialog aint very good

the story itself had a slow pace making it quite boring

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 😉

Yep. Didn't care at all for the "relationship". If I wanted a relationship movie, I would have rented a chick flick.

lol

Ok well thats one man opinion and too bad you didnt like it 🙂

Ya know I dont think Dregh has replied once to this thread since it opened 😕

I loved the flick..........

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
