  • The special effects, which focus on the broken oil tanker at sea and the rescue boat that is sent out to their aid in a raining storm, are executed with movie-making skill.

  • The human stories are what capture the audiences imagination in addition to the amazing special effects of the small rescue boat trying to overcome the rising waves of the seas.

MY LEARNINGS FROM THE MOVIE-

 

"The Finest Hours" offers several valuable lessons that go beyond its dramatic depiction of a historic rescue mission. Here are some of the key learnings from the movie:

 1. Leadership -: The film illustrates how true leadership isn't about holding a high rank, but rather about making critical decisions under pressure and inspiring others to follow even when the odds seem insurmountable. Bernie Webber and Ray  both display qualities of leadership, showing calm, decisiveness, and resourcefulness in the face of dire circumstances.

 2. Teamwork and Collaboration-: The success of the rescue mission depended heavily on the ability of individuals to work together under extremely stressful conditions. The movie highlights the importance of teamwork, trust, and communication, demonstrating how collective efforts can achieve what might seem impossible.

 3. Innovation and Problem Solving-: Engineer Ray ability to improvise solutions to keep the ship afloat as long as possible is a testament to human ingenuity. His problem-solving skills provide a critical lesson in using whatever tools and resources are available to navigate crises.

 4. The Importance of Doing the Right Thing-: Despite initial doubts and fears, Bernie decides to proceed with the rescue mission, guided by a moral duty to save lives. The film underscores the importance of ethical decision-making and doing what is right, even when it's the harder path.

 5. Understanding and Preparing for Risk-: The Coast Guard crew knew the risks involved in their mission, yet they prepared and executed their plan with precision. This teaches the value of preparation and understanding the risks in any critical endeavor.

 6. Emotional Strength and Support-: The film also touches on the emotional aspects of dangerous jobs and the support systems that individuals in such roles need. The relationships and emotional support from the community and loved ones are depicted as foundational to enduring tough times.

 "The Finest Hours" provides not only a gripping cinematic experience but also deep insights into the essence of human strength and the principles of crisis management and leadership.


conclusions :- 

By watching this movie I have understood that as a future seafarer ocean will not always be beautiful and calm for me. The volatile nature of the sea could be very peaceful at times but at the same time it can also be merciless and unforgiving as this movie shows the situation faced by the sailors which is life threatening. As a future officer I can totally relate what kind of fatal and dangerous catastrophe I will face in the sea . In such situation me being a future officer I should be capable of thinking efficiently and rationally as well as  being calm at the same time like the coast guard Berny.

Review Of The Movie The Finest Hour By- Richek Singh and Roll no.-22606 (Blog 2)

  Introduction The  movie is set in a cold region where two T2 type tanker ship snapped in half and the protagonist sets out to the sea with his team to save them.  The coast guard goes out in the sea to save the people stranded on board a ship which had snapped in half due to bad conditions of the sea. Learning from the movie  I learnt how a seafarer in distress not only showed endurance to the rough sea and the role of  a leader in need. Despite all the odds the captain (the temporary captain appointed at that time of distress) stopped the people from doing the wrong thing for example: he cut down the life boat which he new that could not endure the rough sea and he was right about it. Not only that but he also showed how in the time of emergency we should create and think out of the box. Like in the movie he used a beam to steer the ship. We can also learn a lot from our hero the cost guard and his team that they despite their difficulties to cross some bound...
