nice movie

The chief mate on the deck shouted to the sailors climbing on the mast, and directed them to raise the sails, so that the wind-fed sailboats could break the waves at a speed of several knots; The enemy will die; and in the windless weather the living will be sacrificed to the sea. In the boundless Pacific Ocean, the resourceful British captain led his men to the end of the world with the French. Revisiting the great era of the great geographical discoveries that opened up the frontier can not...

A great example of filler content

It's just bad. I only like that sea station, which is the most pursued in the night, and it is also the best scene in the movie. In the whole movie, the sense of patchwork is obvious, and the content is a little empty. I feel that this clue of the sea station can't support the whole movie at all, so many pieces are added, including: children's playful war, animal world, crew full of The happy life of fighting spirit, and there are many plasma cannons, is very chaotic. This reminds me of every...

Rarely turbulent naval battle

Maybe it's because I've always been uninterested in naval battles, and movies about naval battles don't always attract much interest. I'm still used to fighting on land, with the cover of jungles and mountains, and winding roads, which are easier to conceal than the endless sea, and have more tactical options.

As far as this film is concerned, it left the traditional fleet combat and came to South America. From start to finish, the two ships were wrestling with each other, and...

The power of the Westerners is because many people died at sea!

This is an epic movie, a story about the ocean, turbulent waters, wonderful sea creatures, interesting islands and animals, the movie seems to open a door to an artifact for people, in which you can appreciate everything about the ocean .
The real sin comes from the heart of man. When I saw the crew's bodies being thrown into the sea, the ceremony before the sea burial, although it was not the first time I saw it in the movie, my mood was like sea water...
After watching this movie, I...

Movie quotes

Capt. Jack Aubrey: England is under threat of invasion, and though we be on the far side of the world, this ship is our home. This ship *is* England.
Capt. Jack Aubrey: Right lads, now, I know there's not a faint heart among you, and I know you're as anxious as I am to get into close action. But we must bring them right up beside us before we spring this trap. That will test our nerve, and discipline will count just as much as courage. The Acheron is a tough nut to crack... more than twice our guns, more than twice our numbers, and they will sell their lives dearly. Topmen, your handling of the sheets to be lubberly and un-navy like. Until the signal calls, you're to spill the wind from our sails, this will bring us almost to a complete stop. Gun crews, you must run out and tie down in double quick time. With the rear wheels removed, you've gained elevation. and without recoil, there'll be no chance for re-load, so gun captains, that gives you one shot from the lardboard battery... one shot only. You'll fire for her mainmast. Much will depend on your accuracy... however... even crippled, she will still be dangerous, like a wounded beast. Captain Howard and the marines will sweep their weather deck with swivel gun and musket fire from the tops. They'll try and even the odds for us before we board. They mean to take us as a prize.

[all chuckling]

Capt. Jack Aubrey: And we are worth more to them undamaged. Their greed... will be their downfall. England is under threat of invasion, and though we be on the far side of the world, this ship is our home. This ship, is England. So it's every hand to his rope or gun, quick's the word and sharp's the action. After all... surprise is on our side.

Crew: Huzzah, huzzah!
[Toasting]

Capt. Jack Aubrey: To wives and sweethearts.

Officers: To wives and sweethearts.

Capt. Jack Aubrey: May they never meet.
