The movie has a compelling storyline and does a good job of capturing the intensity of the storm and the dangers faced by the crew of the Andrea Gail. However, the film falls short of being great due to its lacking cinematography and realism. The special effects, particularly the CGI, could have been more realistic and convincing, which would have made the storm scenes even more thrilling. Additionally, some of the dialogue and character interactions feel contrived and not entirely authentic.

As others have said, something felt off with the characters. I should have cared more about their deaths than I did, especially since they depicted real tragic figures caught up in a real natural disaster. The moving, and sometimes over the top soundtrack and the great cast couldn't help with this, so I can only blame the writing.

Not great but not terrible - simply average. For me, 'The Perfect Storm' fails to hit the right notes. I was not aware of the events that this film is based upon, so to that degree the ending did surprise me. However, up until that point it's a film that takes itself too seriously. That's purely in regards to the plot, which is manufactured and not linked much to the real life disaster. From the first scene it throws so many character motivations at you that it's hard to find time to actually feel connected to them. I personally didn't get attached to any of the characters in this. That's despite a terrific cast. George Clooney, Mark Wahlberg, John C. Reilly and William Fichtner all give good performances, even in the midst of my aforementioned critiques. My issues lie strictly with the way this is written and portrayed, they could've done a much better job in my opinion.

I recently watched this for the second time, many years after my initial viewing. I confess I didn't always give it my full attention, not just because I had seen it once but also because the plot isn't very subtle, and careful viewing isn't necessary. The dialogue is realistic and well done, but th More

The Perfect Storm, I just love it so much.

"The fog's just lifting, you throw off your bow line, you throw off your stern-you head out to South Chanel past Rocky Neck...Ten Pound Island, past Niles Pond where I skated as a kid-and you blow your air horn and throw a wave to the lighthouse keepers More
