I’m a Chris Pine fan, I mean
come on, how can you not be? Disney did it again, with a movie based on a true
story with The Finest Hours! Best part it’s out today on Blu-ray, DVD Tuesday May 24th! in case
you didn’t see it I the theater. To be honest, I went and saw it in the theater
and I can’t stop watching it at home now. I was lucky to receive it a little
early.
To sum it up, it’s a story
based on the 1952 U.S. Coast Guard. Ok, its way more than that, but that’s the
basis. Put Casey Affleck,
Chris Pine, Eric Bana together in a true action/thriller movie and they will
keep you on the edge of your seats or couch.
Here
is the “official” boilerplate from Disney:
On
February 18, 1952, a massive nor’easter struck New England, pummeling towns
along the Eastern seaboard and wreaking havoc on the ships caught in its deadly
path, including the SS Pendleton, a T-2 oil tanker bound for Boston, which was
literally ripped in half, trapping more than 30 sailors inside its
rapidly-sinking stern. As the senior officer on board, first assistant engineer
Ray Sybert (Casey Affleck) soon realizes it is up to him to take charge of the
frightened crew and inspire the men to set aside their differences and work
together to ride out one of the worst storms to ever hit the East Coast.
Meanwhile, as word of the disaster reaches the U.S. Coast Guard station in
Chatham, Massachusetts, Warrant Officer Daniel Cluff (Eric Bana) orders a
daring operation to rescue the stranded men. Despite overwhelming odds, four
men, led by Coast Guard Captain Bernie Webber (Chris Pine), set out in a wooden
lifeboat with an ill-equipped engine and little, if any, means of navigation,
facing frigid temperatures, 60-foot high waves and hurricane-force winds.
I
don’t like giving spoilers on movies, even if they are based on a true story.
If you like action packed movies, and there is even something for the “chick flick”
lovers, then you must see this. Since the Blu-ray, and digital combo has it
all, I already have it saved on my phone to watch whenever (only my favs get on
my phone). So head over to your favorite store (like Target), and get it
today!!!! I know you will love it. Just for you guys I have a few deleted
scenes for you to watch.
I'd love to see this. I like that DVD's offer special stuff like deleted scenes. Thanks for sharing!
