The Finest Hours (3D)(IMAX)
Set during a massive storm off the coast of New England in 1952, an oil tanker was literally ripped in half, trapping more than 30 sailors inside its rapidly-sinking stern. The senior officer on board takes charge of the frightened crew and tries to inspire the men to set aside their differences and work together to ride out the storm. Meanwhile, the U.S. Coast Guard station in Chatham, Massachusetts orders a daring operation to rescue the stranded men. Despite overwhelming odds, four men set out in a wooden lifeboat with an ill-equipped engine and little, if any, means of navigation, facing frigid temperatures, 60-foot high waves and hurricane-force winds. This Disney film is releasing in 2D, 3D and 3D IMAX, this is the 3D IMAX version.

ScreenIt
Jim Judy quote iconVisual and visceral content will only take you so far, and I never felt emotionally connected with the characters enough to care, while the action and peril never had me on the edge of my seat. It's an amazing true tale, but the filmed version didn't amaze me.
