While Vulture itself considered 2003 Master and Commander: the other side of the world “Spectacular and intimate, exciting and introspective” and praised Russel Crowe for “his effortless authenticity and his stimulating charisma” just last August, other moviegoers may have had a harder time getting into director Peter Weir’s Napoleonic maritime war epic. If you include yourself among members of the public who switch to something else midway masterThe first act, Russell Crowe would like to state officially: this is up to you, and only you.
“This is the problem with children today. Without focus, ”the Unbalanced actor wrote Saturday, retweet a post where a Twitter user, musician Ian McNabb, praised Master and Commander as a useful sleeping aid during quarantine and, inexplicably, marked Crowe in the tweet.
“Peter Weirs’ film is brilliant,” continued the actor. “An epic tale, precise and oriented towards the details of loyalty to the Empire and service, regardless of cost. Incredible cinematography by Russell Boyd and a majestic soundtrack. Definitely a movie for adults. ”In a subsequent tweet, McNabb points that he’s actually four years older than Crowe, so hey, any day now, he must be enjoying all that 138-minute run time, and not just passing out.
