The Laughing Wolf

Master and Commander

I have not gone to see a lot of movies of late, and had I known that Universal was involved I might have had second thoughts this time. That said, however, I am very glad I went. The acting is good, there was good cinematography, and a good story to boot. No spoilers here, but I will say that it is well worth seeing on the big screen. In fact, the story was good enough that I have bought the books and begun reading them. Usually, movies from books fail to measure up, but in this case they did such a good job with the movie that I figure the books have to be pretty good. So far, so good and I will post a review of the books once I’ve had a chance to see how they pan out.
