The Finest Hours





Cast: Chris Pine, Josh Stewart(Tchuda),Holliday Grainger(Miriam), Eric Bana(Station Commander) and Ben Foster(Richard)
Director: Craig Gillespie
Genre: History, Adventure




What makes this film a worthwhile watch is its last 1 hour




You may look forward to:
  • Chris Pine does a remarkable job in this one. More than the adventure skills, the character sketch of 'Bernie' isn't an easy one to play. His toned down attitude, with an icing of bravery, 'Bernie' must have been one hell of a person to remember and Chris Pine does an amazing job in depicting him
  • Josh Stewart playing the role of a parallel hero in this story- 'Tchuda'. He is a silent, low lying character, who saves as many lives on the broken ship for as many hours until rescued. He plays intense role in the story
  • Holliday Grainger is a bold lady with an extra ordinary charm. She is not just another lady to lie low, her strong personality in the film defines her role
  • Eric Bana and Ben Foster are in decent supports, though they don't enjoy a heavy screen presence
  • The rescue operation as depicted in the film is nothing less than heroic. Trading with such high tides and rescuing 32 odd people without a compass, is one such act, which requires more than bravery. Watch this movie for its content which is a part of history in mankind




The dampeners you should be aware of:

The first half of the film is pretty slow, there is not much of content, and it can actually bore you





My Rating: 3/5

1- Poor  2-Average  3-Good  4-Very Good  5- Outstanding
