master and commander

master and commander: far side of the world
dir. by peter weir

Not as bad as I was expecting, however I'm not exactly sure HOW this got into my Netflix queue. I rather liked the fact that, within the first ten minutes of the film, you get to see some 12 yr old kid get his right arm amputated. The most interesting aspect of the film was the involvement of the young boys in the British Naval service.
