The Perfect Storm

THE STORM IS COMING.

perfectstormThe Andrea Gail, a fishing boat captained by Billy Tyne (George Clooney), finds itself at the center of a ”perfect storm” out in the North Atlantic. Director Wolfgang Peterson knows how to make good action movies and this time Mother Nature is the bad guy. The story about the 1991 storm that turned the waters off of Massachusetts into an inferno features outstanding special effects; this is one hell of a storm. Unfortunately, every character is turned into a cliché. The fishermen are sturdy men of action and the women have nothing to do but wait for them at home, concerned.
