In a Nutshell: Boring! Some good acting, but not enough plot to
make me care.
Quick Plot: Captain Aubrey is on the hunt for a French vessle
that has managed to corner him twice, barely escaping each time.
All hands hope the third time's the charm as they go after the
French ship again.
In Detail: There is really no detail to give. It's like a study
of what sailing/the British Navy was like back then. It has
some nice moments, and some really fine acting, but there was
virtually no story. I found it very boring, and so did my
husband (so it's not just that it was a "guy movie"; I tend to
like "guy movies" anyway, but not this one). Rent it if you
feel you must see it, but otherwise, don't bother.
