Shocked by perfection

Through the Blu-ray remake, I reviewed this general disaster film 12 years ago. Because there are not many lines in the impression, in order to better understand the background, I used TMT5 plus external comment subtitles, and selected the comment subtitles of the original novel author. , At the same time using Google map to locate the fishing boat passing place, it is a perfect movie watching experience.

Regarding the decision that the ship encountered the perfect storm of three forces when returning from Cape Fleming, the commentary explained in detail. The captain is competent. As a man in the small town who has been fishing for generations, he has gone through the storm. Is the only option. In fact, the author had imagined that the main ship was overturned by a huge wave of 100 feet, because there was no material left. In the other rescues, the sailboats and helicopters were real, including the shot of the freighter container being knocked down, which is a good supplement to the film. The search and rescue forces are the real heroes. Under such a perfect storm, the breathing air will also be drowned, because the air is also dominated by water, and there is almost no possibility of survival. At the end of the film, the moment when a few people greet the god of death, it is as if they are welcoming a new life.

The DVD I watched at home that year, except for the last big wave was shocked, the rest of the impression was not deep, and the amount of information obtained this time made me re-recognize the film, more than 10,000 people died in the past 300 years, all names were Stayed in the memorial room. After a lot of visits in the bar, the author of the original novel completed the novel, which was recognized by the fishermen in the small town. The film allowed more people to understand the life of the fishermen. They went to sea for a month, had a week of rest, had no salary, and they all depended on the god of the sea. Bet, this perfect storm of death may be the best destination.
