I guess TNT had a little Christopher Reeve tribute this past weekend. Caught the end of "Superman 2" and then got sucked into this slightly better than average "tv movie." Good acting from Reeve and Marc "Beastmaster" singer. Bronson wasn't very believable though and his acting was as lousy as ever. All and all, not bad for a flick made for tv, but there's a reason it's just that -- "made for tv." The ending was particularly unnerving - seems that they said "hey we've only got 5 minutes left of tv time - let's wrap this up with 4 different plot points." I gave it a 7 of ten but more along the lines of 6 and a 3/4 (my ratings are like school grades 7= C) -- check it out if you're a Reeve fan, but Bronson is no Lex Luthor.
When I stumbled upon the 1993 TV movie "The Sea Wolf", by random chance here in 2024, and seeing that the movie had both Charles Bronson and Christopher Reeve on the cast list, of course I had to sit down and watch it. In fact, I didn't even know that the movie existed prior to finding it by pure luck.
And imagine my surprise when I saw that the movie also had Marc Singer, Garry Chalk and Catherine Mary Stewart on the cast list. That was just some sweet icing on he cake.
I had no expectations to the movie or to writers Jack London and Andrew J. Fenady, as I virtually had no idea what I was in for, as I sat down to watch "The Sea Wolf". So in a sense, the writers had every opportunity to impress and entertain me.
The storyline in "The Sea Wolf" was good, writers Jack London and Andrew J. Fenady put together an enjoyable and entertaining script. It was a storyline that had a nice progression to the narrative, and one that was laced with some nice elements of character development, storytelling, suspense and drama.
"The Sea Wolf" has a good and interesting character gallery, so writers Jack London and Andrew J. Fenady did manage to pen down some nicely detailed characters for the movie and aboard the Ghost.
The acting performances in the movie were good, and it was definitely nice to see the likes of Bronson and Reeve acting opposite one another, because they both put on good performances and brought a lot of flavor to the movie.
The movie is nicely directed by Michael Anderson and also nicely shot with great cinematography, which definitely made it feel like the audience were right there alongside the sailors aboard the Ghost.
While "The Sea Wolf" definitely is a good movie, it is hardly a movie that warrants a second viewing, as the contents of the script just doesn't have enough contents to support multiple viewings.
My rating of director Michael Anderson's 1993 movie "The Sea Wolf" lands on a six out of ten stars.

Coming in during the later years, this was another one to tick off from actor Charles Bronson's long-winding filmography. "The Sea Wolf" (which is based on the novel by Jack London and has quite a few film adaptations before it) is a very good made for television ocean adventure enterprise, which relies on the strong performances of Bronson and Christopher Reeve. It's their characters and a battle of wills between them not to give in that makes it quite interesting, but at the same time gripping with their chats on philosophy. There's admiration, but also detest. Reeve is credibly tuned in as wealthy gentleman Humphrey Van Weydan who finds himself at the mercy of the cold-blooded, madman captain Wolf Larsen, a hardy but complicated portrayal by Bronson. For Wolf its amusing watching Humps (his ship nickname) trying to adapt to the conditions
because he's out of his comfort zone
being civilised doesn't work and what it comes down to is primal instinct. The sea has no laws. Learn or die. Which Wolf believes Humps would soon turn to, because he likes to say I told so
but Humps remains determined not to give in too easily. Wolf is a tyrant as he seems to use everybody on board as pieces for his own enjoyment, which leads to treachery and his own demise.
Aristocrat Humphrey Van Weydan and Flaxen Brewster are survivors of a ferry shipwreck, which are plucked out of the ocean by Wolf Larsen, a skipper of a seal-hunting ship. Wolf won't turn back for land, despite the lady Flaxen not being in good shape. Humphrey learns that his stuck on a ship with a psychotic skipper, but tries his best to keep a level-head throughout the voyage.
Director Michael Anderson's ("Around the world in 80 days", "Logan's Run" and "Orca") compact handing suit's the film's low scale, where obvious set-pieces are constructed around its simple, but assured narrative. At times it looks cheap and stagy, but it's competently pulled off with moments of taut suspense and stinging acts of brutality. Andrew J. Fenady's teleplay adaptation bestows an enthralling literate script with well drawn up characters, fascinating viewpoints and psychological banter. Sometimes it got a little bogged down, during the growing affection between the characters Humphrey and Flaxen and the waterlogged conclusion is not as strong as it could've been. Still its well judge, and liked how it keeps a dark undertone to it namely that of Bronson's tough, intimidating performance. The cast also features Catherine Mary Stewart, Marc Singer, Len Cariou and a perfectly weasel-turn by Clive Revill.

I didn't really buy Charles Bronson as this brutal sea captain.He reminded me of a few people I know that have been through a lot in life but survived & because of it, it made them stronger & tougher.They act hard & mean but once you truly get to know them & they let you in, you find out they're actually nice people.He also reminded me of an old person/boss that is tough in front of people but behind closed doors, they're completely different.Maybe I'm too used of seeing him as a hero or vigilante that it's hard for me to believe him as a violent sea captain.This is also the 1st movie I've ever seen him cast as a villain.Anyways..... I never knew The Sea Wolf was based off a book but after watching this movie, 1 of these days I might check it out.I might check out the other versions of the movie someday as well.This version of The Sea Wolf was pretty decent especially for being a TV movie.I wouldn't tell somebody who's thinking of seeing it to skip it.It's good enough that it will keep you entertained while it's on but I don't think you'll give it a rewatch for another couple of months after.Watch it & stick around for the ending.It's worth it
Você sabia?
- CuriosidadesOne of the few times Charles Bronson played a villain since he became a top international star in the early 70's. He generally did not like playing villains and turned down many roles in his later years where he would play one.
