Be Reel

Your ship’s nose may look majestic cutting it and it may invite one hell of an orchestral overture, but do not trifle with the sea. This week, we watched three disaster movies upon the waves. Noah and Chance hop right into marveling at "Titanic" (1997) and quoting a lot of Billy Zane lines. At 22:30, "The Perfect Storm" (2000) is far from a perfect movie, but only one of the hosts can forgive the chowdah accents and script. They close out at 34:15 with 1972’s "The Poseidon Adventure," a ‘70s disaster hulk with an over-sized cast and some dark, outdated ideas on what should happen to its members. Bon voyage! Wear a life vest!
