frustrierend. der film hätte perfekt sein können, wenn der Fokus einfach auf den auf letterboxd beschriebenen plot gelegt worden wäre. Leider passiert das alles erst in den letzten 30ish minuten und vorher verbringt man viel zu viel zeit mit dem "hauptcharakter" (der es nichtmal aufs poster geschafft hat, da die designer anscheinend wussten dass sein arsch null aura hat) und sein romantischer side plot, der extrem unnötig war. Alle anderen Charaktere sind aber extrem fesselnd - wenn der film funktioniert dann richtig und das Ende ist unfassbar gut. Bogie mit einer seiner besten performances.

The equivalent of Mean Girls but in the Navy.
The first 30-45 minutes of this is dreadful to watch, but once everything is set up and they're out to sea, then this is a delight to watch. The tea is TEA-ING as all the main characters group up to gossip on Queeg.
Everything with Keith is so unbelievably useless like why is this in the movie. It could have cut the movie down by a quarter of its runtime. Legit no one cares about Keith or his mom or his girl.
The highlight of the film is easily the court-marshall scene in the courtroom. The courtroom scene feels hopeless especially when Keefer switches up until Queeg deteriorates slowly. And then, that celebration scene right after is just chills.

I enjoy Bogart here a lot with him losing his mind. Other than him and his unstableness this movie is just a bit better than average seafaring adventure of which the other performances do well but not stick out as well as others in similar roles.
