Yar, you be here: White Squall > Customer Reviews White Squall Customer Reviews (4 - 6 of 16 Reviews)not a bad movie at all
I personally saw this movie a few years ago. As with everything some people will like it others will not. I thought it was pretty good myself. I thought the characters where great also the scenery was very beautiful. Beauty and Reality
Director Ridley Scott is a cinematic artist, painting a very striking, strong, and beautiful visual experience. The locations, from seaside slums to life aboard ship to the storm, are all wonderfully displayed. The compelling visuals enhance the real-life based story. It is a multi-layered tale, part coming of age, part bonding friends, part action drama. No one theme overwhelms the others. As an extra on this film, it was a privilage to meet the real Chuck Geig and Tod Johnstone. Hearing them tell of their actuall experience and then seeing it displayed on the screen lead me to believe that they must be very proud of the results. a wonderful film
The first time I saw this movie was in bits and pieces in the video store in which I worked. I bought it and was not prepared for the greatness of the acting, the magnificent cinemetograhpy, and the story of a group of boys' coming of age. I cry at the end every time I watch it, it's that emotional. I loved Jeff Bridges as the Skipper. His was a strong performance. Scott Wolf too was excellent. For anyone who wants to see a movie that hits into the center of the heart, watch this one. Its poingnancy is tangible. Thank you Mr. Scott for this amazing, comical, tragic, wonderful film.
