Extremely studio-filmed and some of the roles were played shamefully theatrically. But that isn’t the problem here. Peck’s is certainly no worse that Gruffudd’s, but that isn’t the problem either. Could it be that apart from Peck, the others are just extras to make up the numbers? That’s true, but so what? The filmmakers crammed several of Hornblower’s adventures into the two hours, so what the British TV series devoted a feature-length episode to, here it takes just twenty to thirty minutes and on to another “episode". But believe it or not, this isn’t really such a problem either. The core of the pickle is that it has no tempo at all. And so I often felt more like an apathetic passenger on a sail boat in dead calm in the middle of the Atlantic and not like an enthusiastic viewer of an adventure romance picture.
