disgrace and tragedy, after he duped family and race organisers (since
neither him nor his boat were ready for the ocean crossing, he started
sending false reports on his locations over the radio struggling to keep
up the pretence), finally taking his life.

I still think that Colin Firth is dreadfully thin these days.
ReplyDeletehe is not ageing well, sadly

I did write about it many many times before :)
DeleteThe Mercy looks good. Don't think I'd get into a big ass shark wanting to eat my boat though. Yikes!
ReplyDeleteImma gonna watch Meg for sure, just the size of her promises a massive thrills on the ocean
DeleteJason talks about wanting to take a cruise some day. I don't need thoughts of being eaten while we're out to sea.
DeleteI wouldn't be caught dead on the sea.... or maybe only dead LOL
DeleteRachel Weisz plays his wife and he STILL needs a paycheck?
ReplyDeleteIt's not like they have a lot of time together in it
DeleteI'd like to see Meg. Of course I'd be scared out of my mind if I ever saw a megalodon in person! Keep it on the big screen!
ReplyDeletedon't think you ever will :)
DeleteColin Firth and Rachel Weitz are two actors I love. Remind me it it's the first time they play in one movie?
ReplyDeleteI think it is, but I'm not sure
