Movie Reviews of White Squall
Movie Review: Great movie
Summary: 5 Stars
Great movie. You don't see much of Scott Wolf anymore but the movie is great and all of the actors made you a part of the story.
I recommend it if you like movies set on the ocean or boats. I guess it is also a god disaster movie too.
Summary of White Squall
This film chronicles the incredible adventures of chuck gieg and his classmates about the ocean academys floating high school. The crews voyage home turns into a disaster as the ship is capsized by a white squall. When lives are lost questions are asked about whether white squalls truly exists Studio: Buena Vista Home Video Release Date: 12/09/2003 Starring: Jeff Bridges Caroline Goodall Run time: 129 minutes Rating: Pg13 Director: Ridley ScottIt's a pity this oceangoing adventure wasn't fully appreciated during its theatrical release in 1996, if only because its climactic storm sequence (hence the movie's title) was awesome on the big screen and inevitably less impressive on video. Mixed reviews also curtailed its box-office potential, but as you might expect from Ridley Scott--the director of Blade Runner and Thelma & Louise--this is a beautifully photographed movie that will thrill anyone who is drawn to the romance and danger of the open sea. The story is a rite-of-passage adventure for a group of high school boys who spend their senior year as the crew-in-training on the Albatross, a sailing vessel skippered by an experienced sailor and schoolmaster (Jeff Bridges) who teaches hard lessons of teamwork and individual responsibility. As they sail to the tip of South America and back, the young men face many challenges that will shape their character, in addition to the carnal pleasures of shore leave in exotic ports of call. It's a traditional story, and Scott doesn't bring anything particularly new to this sailboat variation of Dead Poets Society and Scent of a Woman. But as a coming-of-age drama White Squall is professionally crafted and filled with vital energy, featuring a talented cast of newcomers (led by Scott Wolf of TV's Party of Five) who rise to the demands of this rousing and life-changing adventure. --Jeff Shannon
