The film tells the story of the battle for sea power in the early 19th century. The British navy "Marvel" went to sea under the leadership of the new captain Jack. For glory and honor, the story of the desperate battle with the French and Spanish navies at sea.

In the film, not only the protagonists are sharp, but the supporting actors are also lifelike. Such as the indecisive trainee Horen, Jack's reckless servant Qirik, the emotional poet Movi, the straightforward sailor Hora, etc., all left a deep impression on people. Especially the trainee played by the 13-year-old child star Max Bennis, compared with other adult actors, his fresh and lovely performance is very close to the characters in the original work.

Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World quotes

  • Capt. Jack Aubrey: England is under threat of invasion, and though we be on the far side of the world, this ship is our home. This ship *is* England.

  • Capt. Jack Aubrey: Right lads, now, I know there's not a faint heart among you, and I know you're as anxious as I am to get into close action. But we must bring them right up beside us before we spring this trap. That will test our nerve, and discipline will count just as much as courage. The Acheron is a tough nut to crack... more than twice our guns, more than twice our numbers, and they will sell their lives dearly. Topmen, your handling of the sheets to be lubberly and un-navy like. Until the signal calls, you're to spill the wind from our sails, this will bring us almost to a complete stop. Gun crews, you must run out and tie down in double quick time. With the rear wheels removed, you've gained elevation. and without recoil, there'll be no chance for re-load, so gun captains, that gives you one shot from the lardboard battery... one shot only. You'll fire for her mainmast. Much will depend on your accuracy... however... even crippled, she will still be dangerous, like a wounded beast. Captain Howard and the marines will sweep their weather deck with swivel gun and musket fire from the tops. They'll try and even the odds for us before we board. They mean to take us as a prize.

    [all chuckling]

    Capt. Jack Aubrey: And we are worth more to them undamaged. Their greed... will be their downfall. England is under threat of invasion, and though we be on the far side of the world, this ship is our home. This ship, is England. So it's every hand to his rope or gun, quick's the word and sharp's the action. After all... surprise is on our side.

    Crew: Huzzah, huzzah!
