Review of Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World (2003) by Niels D — 14 Dec 2015

Still one of my favorite movies of the new century . . . It feels like an old fashioned epic, which might explain why it was ignored by general audiences back in 2003 and has been slowly forgotten about (despite the fact that the effects work is still convincing).

There's an argument to be made that this is the best of Crowe's adventurous leading man performances.
