Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World (2003)

Cast: Russell Crowe (Capt. Jack Aubrey), Paul Bettany (Dr. Stephen Maturin, Surgeon)
For complete cast info, see IMDb's Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World page.

Considering all the Oscar buzz about this movie, I expected a lot more. Perhaps that was the problem and if I went in expecting less I would have been more impressed, but the story never really grabbed me. This seemed like one of the longest movies I've ever seen, though it wasn't even close to the longest movie I've seen.

Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World dragged in so many places that I found myself looking at my watch trying to figure out if it would end soon. I'd recommend waiting till it comes out on DVD and renting it.

Grade: B-
