About this product

Product Information

Based on a series of books by Patrick O'Brian, and directed by Peter Weir, MASTER AND COMMANDER plunges viewers deep into the story of a British Navy ship at sea during the Napoleonic war. Russell Crowe stars as Aubrey, the charismatic captain who wrestles with issues like honor, pride, duty, sacrifice and loyalty while using ingenious tactics to engage his prey--a much larger and better-equipped French Man o' War. Paul Bettany plays his friend, the ship's doctor, who cautions Aubrey about letting revenge cloud his judgment after the French Man o' War almost sinks them in an early battle. Before the incredibly intense final skirmish the men battle a raging storm, launch an excursion to the Galapagos Islands, find time for grog-enhanced merriment, and endure some primitive surgery. Weir fills the film with a rich wealth of period detail, convincing dialogue, and the same haunting, dreamlike mood that has informed his best films, such as PICNIC AT HANGING ROCK, THE LAST WAVE and THE TRUMAN SHOW. The wealth of sounds and sights on display are so evocative one can practically smell the salt air and feel the heave of the ocean. Russell is intense and inspiring as Aubrey, and Bettany proves a worthy match. MASTER AND COMMANDER is another triumph for Weir, and further evidence of his ability to fuse poetic realism with rousing entertainment.

  • GREAT FILM, SHIPS ARE WONDERFUL = SEE IT

    WOW. This film really makes you feel like you're on the high seas. Amazingly realistic in its depiction of maritime violence. The tall ships are glorious and part of another era. This is a guys film. Being stuck at sea for months on end really had to have been aweful at times. The film also explores the bold and caring aspects of maleness, and deals with tragedy in a realistic tone. I only watched this on my little dvd player, but I image it would be very dynamic on a big screen, I'm only sorry now that I missed its theatrical release. Watch it.

  • Great action movie

    The movie brings the book alive! Well cast, and very well acted, though I thought the book presented Captain Jack somewhat taller, which after the first few minutes the craftmenship of the acting amusingly enough overshadows this minor disparity and you're literally sucked completely into the movie... Action throughout, complete with bloody battle scenes and near shipwreck, and although the interactions between the Captain and his freind the Doctor is clear, many of the political aspects of the story were cut out - no doubt to keep the movie within a normal sitting rather than a mini-series lenght. At first I thought that this was a dramatization of the first book in the series, which it is not - rather several books into the series. However, this is an all-round good action movie of an ...

  • One of Best Movies Ever!

    All the prior reviews here have said most everything! I will just add that I love this film so much I re-watch it probably more than others I own (like another favorite, Out of Africa)--at least once a year. It is so genuinely realistic for the Napoleonic time period and thrilling for lovers of the high seas and old massive clipper ships with poop decks where the Captain and Doctor play cello and violin. Amidst travel to war with an enemy ship, they discover the Galapagos Islands and new species. I am a 62-year-young woman and have loved this movie since it debuted. Even the battle scenes are exciting and moving. The life aboard ship was the best thing about it, I thought, and really showed how the men all relate to each other. The young boy was marvelous in his character role, as were ...

  • Gotta Love Russel Crowe

    I am just about the finish the Aubrey/Maturin series of books (21 volumes) so I love the material and it is unique. However, they have made a terrible mess of this wonderful set of stories by mixing up events that were not directly related and they really failed to develop the characters properly. The movie is watchable and has some fun parts in it if you like movies about 19th century sailing/warships. Russel Crowe is the spitting image, in both sound and looks, of Captain Aubrey and he is who I imagine as I read. Maturin is admirably played as well but not quite as pitch perfect as Aubrey is by Crowe. All in all worth a watch if anything to get you to read the books. They are fantastic.
