Master and Commander

This was a lot better than it looked in the ads. I was very impressed by parts of it. although the theater I saw it in had a kind of bad sound system so I couldn't hear some of the dialogue.

Oh, Russell Crowe is STILL hot, not as hot as Gladiator, but still. He was a good Captain and his crew had some really guys too - lol. I enjoyed it a lot. Need to see it again though because I missed the first four minutes and I felt *SO* lost.

Excellent special effects, you feel like you're on a ship. The lighting was pretty amazing too.

I don't know what it's like in the books, but the Captain and his Doctor seem close. Really close. Really really close.

Good make-up too. I might make some icons if I feel up to it :)
