MASTER AND COMMANDER [2003] review

MASTER AND COMMANDER has been a movie I’d been half-meaning/half-wanting to watch for a good year and a half or more now. Tonight was finally the right time. It’s less than over-the-top battle scenes (a good thing) and detailed depiction of seamanship and life at sea blended nicely together to form a good piece of entertainment. The fine cast made good use of a script free of gimmicks, and I think not even one swear word in a whole movie of sailors!

Hmm, not much more I can think to say for this movie, what does that say about it?
