Craig Gillespie directed this Action/Drama. Watch Preview. Cast: Chris Pine, Casey Affleck, Ben Foster, Holliday Grainger, John Ortiz, Eric Bana. Rated PG-13 for intense sequences of peril. Running time is one hour and fifty-seven minutes.
The remarkable true story of the greatest small boat rescue in Coast Guard history.
This is a reasonably exciting sea rescue saga set off the coast of New England in 1952. There's plenty of watery action intermixed with a love story I suspect was inserted to make it more enjoyable for women. Frankly, I thought that just got in the way and extended the length of the film unnecessarily. For those of us who lived through the 50s, a lot of the scenes will bring back memories of those years. The action is split between those on the shattered oil tanker (Affleck) and the small Coast Guard crew (Pine) attempting to rescue them. While the rescue does have action it's repetitive in nature and starts to lose its impact after awhile The end credits are interesting in that they show you pictures of the actual crews alongside the actors who portrayed them in the film. I saw this in the 2D version so I can't attest to the 3D quality, although it was not filmed in the 3D process.
There are no additional scenes once the credits begin. A large screen is a must. 2D Theatres/Times. 3D Theatres/Times.
