A movie you've never heard of, and there

A movie you've never heard of, and there is a long ton of reasons why. Gary Cooper is completely miscast; his wooden "method" if you can call it that is only good in old Westerns. This is one of the few times that Charlton Heston is the best actor in a film's cast. You do get to see Richard Harris in one of his early roles. Just when you think the film's ending will hinge on courtroom drama during the inquest, it switches back to action at sea for a rushed and unconvincing conclusion. The whole thing is a late 1950's Poseiden Adventure.

Just an over-long, contrived story; you could have

Just an over-long, contrived story; you could have done the plot in a 30-minute within a 1960 Perry Mason show; get on with it, Captain, and tell your story. You do get to see Gary Cooper, which is sort of nice, but I believe the filming was delayed quite a bit due to Gary Cooper's failing health and the seriousness of the diagnosis, which I don't believe was known. As for Charleston Heston, it is one of the few films you can actually watch him, as he doesn't think he's Moses, cough. This movie is just tiring to watch. It just keeps looping and moving one slight bit and looping with a little bit of information, revealing a little bit of information, you get the idea from this sentence? It's not bad acting, nor a bad director, or editing, which is quite good; it's just a story someone had an idea for an ending and had to contrive 10 minutes of plot into 1 hour and 45 minutes. As I say, an old Perry Mason TV show plot story, fine, here, well you come way with well that was a waste of time, looking back at the plot.

Pretty good sea yarn (think The Caine Mutiny

Pretty good sea yarn (think The Caine Mutiny without the punch)) which could have been so much better, I think. The scenes on the boat make it watchable.
