Review of Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World (2003) by Iggy A — 27 Apr 2014
Very good action and suspense thriller.
It is one of those big movies I didn't watch when it came out because it was way too popular at the time. If the media and people are too gung-ho about a current item in the theaters, I have a habit of skipping them, because I don't want to ruin the experience by subconsciously finding ways to pick it apart. Plus, all the debate about whether it was a homosexual love story too or should have been turned me off. When I finally got around to seeing it, I was pleasantly surprised to see it did hold up under scrutiny. The critics and people at the time had it right. (Which was certainly not true of their love for The Departed.).
