A very straight forward rescue tale.

Rating: 7/10 (25 May 2016)

You might enjoy watching this movie if you are in the mood for an adventure/rescue movie with some romance set in a 1950's feel era.
This is a very simple movie, you won't find any surprising plot twists, but it does a lot of things right. The acting is good. The cinematography, costumes, and setting are all interesting to look at. I'm always fascinated by stories of rogue waves and the power of the sea. Some of the open water scenes in this movie with massive waves are really exciting and probably the highlight of the movie.
As another reviewer mentioned there are basically three different story lines that the movie bounces back and forth between. The romantic story line is definitely the weakest and the other two do not feel especially interwoven.
Overall, I would recommend it as entertainment but would caution against any expectation of greatness.
