I saw this in on the Netflix recommendation list and I avoided it. I really didn't have any interest. Then in a weak moment I heard one of the New York morning sports radio shows talk about it and it sounded interesting. I figured I would try it.
I should have realized it was not going to be good since the morning show I was listening to was the one I usually avoid.
This is a recounting of the Carnival Cruise ship which suffered a fire which burned out all the electrical lines stranding the ship and making it so the passengers were stuck for a week with no way to drive the ship and with no way to get rid of their human waste.
This hour long documentary doesn't say much beyond what could be told in ten or fifteen minutes. There are mentions of the debauchery of the cruise before the fire, the problems after, and the nightmare of what happened when they went to an open bar. Details are lacking because the film wants to keep it in the realm of good taste.
While not bad, I mean I did watch it from start to finish, I was left wonderingwhy was I bothering other than it is a trainwreck.
Not recommended.
