In this reaction video, ''Master and commander'' will be reviewed through the eyes of a Canadian Coast Guard officer. On top of facing the mighty french navy, Captain Jack Aubrey will also have to face my review. Will this movie float or stink?
The movie happens in the year 1805 during the Napoleonic Wars. H.M.S. Surprise, a British frigate, is under the command of Captain Jack Aubrey. Aubrey and the Surprise's current orders are to track and capture or destroy a French privateer named Acheron. The Acheron is currently in the Atlantic off South America headed toward the Pacific in order to extend Napoleon's reach of the wars. This task will be a difficult one as Aubrey quickly learns in an initial battle with the Acheron that it is a bigger and faster ship than the Surprise, which puts the Surprise at a disadvantage. Aubrey's single-mindedness in this seemingly impossible pursuit puts him at odds with the Surprise's doctor and naturalist, Stephen Maturin, who is also Aubrey's most trusted advisor on board and closest friend. Facing other internal obstacles which have resulted in what they consider a string of bad luck, Aubrey ultimately uses Maturin's scientific exploits to figure out a way to achieve his and the ship's seemingly impossible goal.
The movie did a very good job to reenact the time period. But far more than that, it's did a fantastic job to represent the everyday life aboard a ship. Coming from someone who actually lived on a boat for a few years, I can tell you I really felt immersed. I was amazed to look in the background to see every sailors doing their everyday jobs. That movie went deep in all the little details, I actually had to watch some scenes multiple times to catch most of them.
Overall, it was really enjoyable to watch. Thank you to my followers to recommend me watching it, I can't believe I didn't do it sooner.

A little bit about myself: I used to work on the Canadian Coast Guard fleet for more than four years as a navigation officer. I also did my training at the Coast Guard College in Cape Breton. I took part on multiple operations around the country, including the Arctic. Nowadays, I enjoy a comfortable life on shore. I still work for the Coast Guard, but from the office. A drastic change in my way of life, but it gave me the opportunity to do videos like this one.
Got any movie or video game related to boat you would like me to critique? Let me know in the comments!
