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 there was no shortage of battles of mind and control. The French ships were advanced, fast, and powerful, while the British ships had little advantage.
In the first confrontation, it was a bit of luck to rely on the fog to avoid the opponent; So when the captain ordered the pursuit, he actually wanted revenge, not defeating his opponent.
In the mutual competition, some scenes of life have been inserted. Such as the doctor who is a biologist himself, and the brotherhood between two or three young men.
Even so, I still think the film is a bit "boring" and the plot processing is a bit slow. The login battle after the disguise is exciting, but the final twist can actually be more unfolding. It's just that we see the distant shadow of Gufan in the blue sky, and the film ends here. Seeing that it means preparing to pursue the victory, there may be a sequel, but after so many years, there is still no news.
Crowe's performance was consistent.
