Russel Crowe had a legendary run of roles in the 2000s.

Love this film, wish studios would make more of these or actual historical navy films like it, cuz they're plenty of stories to put to film.

@Olly It is too bad. I would have liked to have seen a sequel.

It didn't make enough money, didn't have enough broad appeal, even though it was awesome!

In a perfect world, this would've been followed by a sequel or two.

Howlrunner

They even had to cancel the german audio book series after part 5 cause it didn't brought in enough money 😭

@Peter Matten they are great novels, perhaps THE best when it comes to this genre. I also enjoyed This Thing Of Darkness, about Captain Fitzroy and Darwin. But it is indeed a shame they did not make more films. So much great material to mine, and Weir and team did a fantastic job capturing the essence of the characters.

@Thomas Eubank please do, I bet you could do something quite cool with that. Maybe do some shorts based off the best bits of the novels

I wonder if with blender (a 3d software) I could make some sort of a free little show based upon the books.

One of my favourite modern films. ❤️
The books should be made into a television series. ❤️

"Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World"(2003) is a Historical period Sea adventure War movie masterpiece! This is the best movie of all time for this kind!

I heard they're moving forward with a reboot, instead of a sequel. It's a shame everything was perfect here, I'd prefer a direct continuation.

Especially how it ended. Such a tease, and there is so much source material to mine from.

Having read the books before even Realising that they made a movie. I'm able to fully appreciate this Film in its entirety.

Or, perhaps 'overlooked' would be more apt, but either way it's a great movie. I remember seeing a trailer (it was a bit different to this one) and thinking it they took the time period and made it into an action flick so I was a bit apprehensive going in. Fortunately that was not the case, and it was a film with real class.

This was when trailers were absolute trash and the actual movies were a total blast. This masterpiece had the misfortune to go head to head with the Return of the King and that's why they didn't make any sequels to this, wish they continued this but it's to damn late now

Unpopular Opinion:
Far better than Gladiator!

Fenja

My all time favourite movie is Gladiator, Master and Commander comes in second, but I agree that this is the better movie. For me Gladiator has a lot of nostalgic reasons to be my favourite one and it’s good, but not the best movie ever made.

Cosimo Maraldi

@Ryan Mccarthy If you talk about accurate historic movie this is far better then Gladiator….but all the movie that they did after gladiator came out(Alexander, Troy, master and commander ecc…) they are all sons of the huge success the Gladiator had back in 2000, when it came out.

I prefer movies like this or Alexander, that Gladiator, cause they want sincerely build and show how life would be at the time….the Gladiator had a very cool and good revenge story…but is fanta historical in many way and I don’t like this part. So I don’t rewatch the Gladiator often as I rewatch Alexander or Master and commander

Eugenia Patron costa

Both movies are great.

Why were women never forced to fight like men? They literally chose little 10 year old boys over adult females.

if i remember correctly they had children on board to learn

@FLguy supposedly it was also superstitious bad luck to have a woman on board. But also, sometimes it was even in a ship's governing articles/rules.

But then there are the tales of a few women disguising themselves on pirate ships - a very few cuz that would've been very hard to keep up, but pirates Anne Bonny and Mary Read were accepted as crew but also it helped to be the captain's partner / mistress like with Anne and Jack Rackham. But Anne was also a good sword fighter and harmed or killed / dispensed with anyone who didn't accept her so that matter was probably settled pretty quickly at the onset.

Also there's an Irish lady who was a famous pirate and there was Shin Zhe of Canton China who married the captain of a 70,000 member pirate crew / fleet on the terms that she'd get half his fleet upon wedding and took over the whole fleet when her husband died. The Chinese government eventually paid them to quit and she retired in her mind thirties rich, opened a casino and lived through her 60's.

One wonders what other stories there were that we don't know just cuz they were never told / printed.

1. Because the men would not have followed a woman (Joan of Arc and Boudicca being two of the very rare exceptions in history). 2. Having a woman on board a ship out at sea for months at a time with a crew of male sailors in the 1700s or 1800s would have simply been a terrible idea for her safety. 3. The 10 year old boy was probably from a higher social class, so had higher rank. It wasn't about age so much as about social position, often obtained by the status of the officer's father in society. 4. Most women of this time period would not have wanted to live such a life or do such a thing, probably because they were more intelligent than the average man. etc.

That’s kind of stupid to ask that. Those little ten year old boys acted as apprentices. Women didn’t belong on ships in those time and boys that wanted to be an sailor or be in the navy when they grow up would need experience. Apprenticeship was the norm back in those days and I’m guessing the boys were either poor or didn’t have a home. Also women suck, I doubt any woman now or back in those times would even want to be around 50 hot sweaty drunk English men that didn’t shower for years on end.

I remember going out and buying this movie thinking it would be a great one because of the rewards it received. I collect movies and good ones get a few viewings because sometimes you notices things you did not see the first time around. I like Russell Crowe but this was horrible.

galnhus56

No doubt you are entitled to your opinion, but you are definitely in the minority here. 85% tomato meter / 80% audience score says most people enjoyed this movie.

Onyx Leathers

@Cody T Maybe you are right but after watching this and disliking it so much I'll pass. Thanks for your insight.

I cannot understand anyone thinking this was horrible. Such a fantastic historical epic. And captured the essence of the novels, and the spirit of the characters perfectly. Perhaps you thought it was going to be a more straightforward swashbuckler? The pace of it isn’t for everyone. I would highly suggest reading some of the novels, they are utterly fantastic. And it gives you such a deeper insight for the characters when watching the film.
