Love this movie!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 19, 2022

Verified Purchase

Based upon a true story, this movie is one that made such an impression on me from the first time I watched it. The idea of learning at sea, whether academia, life lessons, teamwork, handling emotions, etc- it's a concept that bears thought. The flow of the movie is good, the characters developments give you an understanding and appreciation for who they are. Thus, when the tragedy (tragedies) strike, unless you're just an unfeeling person, you're emotionally involved and affected. The fate of the Captain reminds me of the utter turmoil another Captain went through- the Captain of the USS Indianapolis. Both treated rotten after the hell they went through, and it's always unconscionable to me to see how those in charge and who weren't even there can sit so smug and judge. I guess that's just a life lesson for all of us to contemplate.

Really excellent movie

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 8, 2022

Except for one scene. I don't know what it is supposed to have been in it for. A dolphin and a disturbed kid and a harpoon gun. The rest of this movie was so good. A bunch of kids in the 50's board a teaching boat. They said and the take classes. The cast is superb. All of the kids Jeff Bridges is good too. I get the idea that this is not a true story. Some very sad moments and some very uplifting moments. My favorite and it was a tough call is Ryan Phillippe as a very mentally tortured kid. Definitely worth the looks see.

A very misunderstood movie

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 30, 2014

[Warning: possible spoilers]

Wow. I think some people who reviewed this movie completely missed the point. Maybe some misguided newspaper reviewer called it a "coming of age" movie and the moniker seemed to stick but no, this is not at all in the genre of "coming of age" movies that are shallow, vapid and forgettable. This movie is much better than that.

Let's start with the fact that this movie is based on real life events, not fantasies about high school boys getting their first score. Yes, the movie wouldn't be realistic if there wasn't a little bit of the boys eyeing the girls, but "coming of age" is a lot different concept than the wide breadth of life experience the young men in this movie are dealt and forced to cope with.

Most "coming of age" movies are farcical fantasies when held in comparison to White Squall.

Nor is this an action-adventure or even a romantic love story about young adults set in a historic situation (think Titanic).

Director Ridley Scott elicits such raw real life from his cast that you often forget you are watching a movie. The kids are often and usually more in control of the action than the adults. Starting with top-billed Jeff Bridges, who is by far not the lead character and whose performance often comes off as comical in the genre of Capt. Jack Sparrow. The real lead is the compelling John Savage who exhibits an amazing depth and breadth of acting ability, but whose on-camera demeanor is just shy of looking like he just showed up for work. Last on the list is Caroline Goodall who is wooden and remote throughout and when her time comes (for what seems to be a lingering eternity in which she stares blankly into the camera) who else here mumbled "ho hum, seeya"?

While I knew very little about the plot of this movie, the words "action packed" screamed out at me in their promotion. To the contrary, this is NOT an action-packed movie. There are only two scenes that contain intense action, while the rest is quite sedate and low-key compared to any movie. If your intent is to see an "action-packed" movie I think you will be disappointed.

This is a highly underrated movie that has been undeservedly been given low reviews by people who were just not watching the same movie as me. Watch it again! Understand that it is not just about a bunch of horny teens who are "coming of age". Watch it more for than most other movie's share of acting brilliance.

While I won't let it affect my rating, there is one particular scene that troubled me. You'll know it when you see it. If the movie had been pure fiction I would have been furious. But knowing that it was based on real life I'll accept it as portraying reality, but I have to add my two cents that the presentation of that scene, although realistically raw, could have been treated just a little differently.

Finally, the actual DVD presentation. The wide-screen format is compelling and totally necessary to capture the rawness of the sea. The ratio is a good fit for current generation LCD TV's. The Blu-Ray transfer is mostly flawless - sharp, clear, color-correct, and with thundering dynamic surround sound. There is only one disc with only the shortest hint of a copyright notice at the beginning then right into the title menu. The only bonus track is the theatrical trailer (in standard definition).

I suggest you stop reading ABOUT this movie and just SEE it. If you let your mind get filled with too much misinformation you will end up sitting there waiting for things that just aren't going to happen.

This movie is beautifully produced and the video production of the scenery is incredible. It touches me very deeply on so many personal levels. It tells so much about the human spirit in so many ways and is incredibly powerful. I would recommend this video to anyone.

Allen Garfield's #1 fan.

Loved by audiences, hated by critics. Great adventure/coming of age movie.

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 2, 2020

Verified Purchase

Undoubtedly, if Jeff Bridges was a dysfunctional junkie creep (or whatever) the critics would've loved it. Roget Ebert was the exception, he recommended it highly.

A Great performance by Bridges, playing (against type) a tough as nails captain. Lots of familiar character actors and soon to be famous young actors round out the cast.

Incredibly, this flopped at the box office. Of course, it has many fans who discovered it on home video - great word of mouth - everyone who sees this loves it. I'd describe it as Breaking Away meets A Perfect Storm.

Great sense of period (early 60s), clothes, cars, music, dialogue, etc.

The scenes in Caribbean ports-of-call are as authentic as you'll ever see in any film.

Based on a real-life memoir, this nautical rites-of-passage story set in 1960 sees a crew of teenage boys on a school ship maturing rapidly under the hard-but-fair tutelage of 'Skipper' Sheldon (Bridges). They gain valuable lessons in character, responsibility and individual integrity as the 'Albatross' sails from the Caribbean into a ferocious hurricane that will fatefully test the mettle of all on board. Director Ridley Scott (Blade Runner, Alien) bathes his young charges in plenty of tropical sun and draws a convincing partnership between brooding old hand Sheldon and his ship's doctor spouse (an impressively natural Goodall), which gives the material an emotional core later to prove deceptively potent. It is, however, the 'white squall' sequence that stands way above anything else in the movie, detailing with you-are-there intensity the vessel's helpless plight as she's buffeted by a series of enormous waves and the Skipper battles to keep her upright. This landlubber felt like jelly. It should be noted that this was filmed before the advent of CGI - the stunts and FX are astonishing. One quibble: the ten minutes too long courtroom showdown that closes the picture.

Kino-Lorber bluray looks and sounds amazing. Optional English subtitles.

Such a poetic movie, it’s one that all teenagers should watch to help open their eyes to the world. A brilliant film enhanced by the fact it’s based on a true story.

White Squall

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on June 1, 2004

Verified Purchase

This film got slated by many critics, but I think it's great. You are taken through the life of one adolecent male making friends and relations of young men of his age and trying to get on in the world. It is a long film, yet it is not felt as you watch it. The acting, the direction and the photography are outstanding and you are taken through many emotions. If you want a deep and meaningful film, then this is the one for you. Ryan Phillippe steals the show on many occassions and quite rightly so, yet all the young men work off each other very well. Jeff Bridges is always outstanding in all that he does, this film is no exception. Well worth the five stars in my opinion.

I used to own a copy of this movie on VHS tape, but it had deteriorated and technology has moved on. Apart from appreciating Ridley Scott's direction, I have always enjoyed the story. The video and audio on this version of the movie is superior to the one on VHS, so my enjoyment is set to continue!
