The finest hours is a film based off an incredible true story but the film itself is not so incredible.

Based on a daring coast guard rescue mission, The film tells the story of Bernie Webber [Chris Pine] who sets out to save a group of people on a sinking ship.

The direction by Craig Gillespie fails to bring justice to the real life incident and the pace is just awful, The cast led by Chris Pine and Casey Affleck seem to be sleep walking through film, The only things I liked about it was some of the special effects and some of the score.

The film poorly tells what happened in an ineffective way and I rather watch a documentary about what happened. 3/10.
