Master and Commander (The Movie)
Just got back from seeing the new Russell Crowe movie. It will be kind of hard to find anything to fault about the movie as it will have something for most everyone. Russell tops his "Gladiator" role and that, in my opinion, is very hard to do. The visual effects were outstanding. The battle scenes "Awesome Baby" as Dick Vitale would say. It was problably a little slow in the middle, but never boring. Well worth viewing just to see the historical accuracy Peter Weir brought to the film. Get your tickets and "pipe yourself aboard" men! Be careful about the little one's as the batttle scenes are pretty explicit.

I carry twenty-three great wounds all got in battle. Seventy-five men have I killed with my own hands in battle. I scatter, I burn my enemies' tents. I take away their flocks and herds. The Turks pay me a golden treasure, yet I am poor! Because *I* am a river to my people!

Is it on par with "Gladiator" or even better, the movie itself?
Pretty tough to top Gladiator, but this film (M & C) is just made for Russell Crowe. I hope this does well so they will make some more, which is the intention.
