À propos de ce film

Based on the extraordinary true story of the greatest small-boat rescue in Coast Guard history, The Finest Hours is a tale of courage, loyalty and honor in the face of overwhelming odds. When a massive storm strikes off the coast of Cape Cod, it rips a T-2 oil tanker in half, trapping more than 30 sailors on its rapidly sinking stern. As Captain Bernie Webber (Chris Pine) and his crew set out in a 12-seat rescue boat to save them, Chief Engineer Ray Sybert (Casey Affleck) struggles to buy his men more time. Packed with heroic larger-than-life action and driven by the men’s faith in their mission, themselves and one another, The Finest Hours is a triumph.

Notes et avis

It was a predictable movie. Boy meets girl, boy pisses off girl, they marry. The only mystery is who was going to die, we knew someone does. But I must say I was Very impressed by how the boat handled those waves. I mean the way it went under water....then popped up like a cork....Impressive!

This was a good movie. The special effects were decent, the acting was good, and the story was good. I think that this was a very enjoyable movie. However, I was very upset to see that a very little amount of people actually saw this movie. Please don't let this movie be the next "the walk". I would rate this movie an 7 out of 10.

Starts out a tad bit slow but picks up quickly. Really good solid movie. I read about this story many years ago, glad to see it on the big screen.
