Director Peter Weir's first turn behind the camera since 1998's critically acclaimed The Truman Show, Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World is based on two Napoleonic War-era adventure novels in author Patrick O'Brian's Aubrey/Maturin series, Master and Commander and The Far Side of the World. Russell Crowe stars as Captain Jack Aubrey, a high-seas adventurer who maintains a strong bond with ship-surgeon Stephen Maturin (Paul Bettany). After conquering much of Europe already, Napoleon's forces have set their sights on taking Britain, so Aubrey and the crew of his ship, the HMS Surprise, take to the Pacific to intercept any attacking ships from the French fleet.

This is such a great movie. Love Russell Crowe as Jack Aubrey. Even tho I consider this a guy's film, I really enjoyed it and watch it over and over. Great special affects, action, and the excellent acting of my favorite actor. Hope there's a sequel.

Russell Crowe at his best
A must see for Russell Crowe fans as well as those who enjoy adventures in the high seas during this time period. The special effects and realism were superb as well.
