Saw "Heart of the Sea" last night. I was impressed. I can not think of a film that made me ponder how good it was for some time. I see so many films so frequently it's as if I wipe them from memory to make room for the new. Im sure there was a really good one I just can not recall. The Force Awakens comes to mind but that was more for finishing the story.

ahh i didn't like 'heart of the sea' and so many people i knew recommended it to me. i felt bored the whole movie, and it was hard for me to get past the fact it was chris hemsworth playing a character. it just didn't seem believable to me that him and his 'model' wife would have such perfect teeth in 1820

Funny, I was watching it reluctantly. So my expectations were already low. My interest was in the Herman Melville story. Yes Helmsworth was very consistent in this. I suspect I was looking around that because I expected it. Many of your reasons are spot on.
Have any suggestions?

I was thinking about it just the other night as a matter of fact and how I need to get around to watching it. Thanks for the reminder.

Recently saw dark city. While it has its flaws it's a great sci-fi film that came out a year before the original matrix and while the fight scenes aren't nearly as good the story is better.
