I have to admit, I picked this movie just for the cast, and while Sutherland, Scacchi, and Prochnow were - as usual - great performers, the rest of the movie was such a let down. It feels like it was put together by a team of adolescents with low level scripts, that is, scripts lacking any depth, awful photography and editing, and hilariously lousy score! I can't believe I was able to watch this seemingly long movie until the end... the sad thing is, this could have actually been a great political thriller given the interesting plot. All the potential was there to make it a hit; that is, two main ingredients are there: a great story of national conspiracies, and a great core cast (even though many other actors are pretty much soap opera quality). But maybe I'm missing something; until then it's still not worth more than a 3 in my opinion.
In 1994, the ferry MS Estonia sank and took over 800 lives in the process. For years, there were various theories as to what happened and why and by the time this movie was made in 2003, the actual reasons for the sinking were not 100% clear. Now, however, they have a much clearer idea...and the conspiracy theory this film promotes turns out to be a lot of hogwash. However, the film also purports to be the truth...and I wonder how many folks believe this wild tale.
When the story begins, you can see it's NOT an especially good movie technically speaking. Despite having some prodigious talent in the three leading roles, much of the rest of the production looks and sounds cheap. Bad narration, terrible music, awful edits and bad acting (apart from the three leads) make this a film which not only is inaccurate with its assertions about the accident but is also a bad film.
My recommendation is that you skip the movie and just read up on the accident. You'll learn far more than you would watching this movie.

The Baltic Storm is a very controversial story which I think have a lot of truth in it.
It's about the big catastrophe in 1994 when the ship Estonia sank between Estonia and Sweden. Over 800 people died and only around 100 where saved.
The survivors told about explosions and the proof also told that something wasn't right in the official story about what had happen.
This movie is about that and it's quite interesting, but you should not expect any movie like Titanic. This is a movie which have been done to tell the alternative truth with a low budget.
I recommend this movie to all you out there which don't buy all the crap politicians and other high people tells us.

Clossius says that "Baltic Storm" is banned in Sweden. That is not correct! Instead you can buy the film almost everywhere, like in gas stations, shopping malls, internet (of course) and so on. Often to a very low price because this movie is so BAD and nobody wants to see it, despite all the tricks to keep up the interest. The movie only appeals to conspiracy theorists, psychos and other persons living in la-la-land and those who "knows the truth".
Working on a museum with the Estonia disaster as a theme I have meet them all! I have heard about every theory that exists like cocaine-smuggling, weapon-smuggling, biological warfare, nuclear smuggling, red mercury, aliens, the Russian- the American- the Estonian- the Swedish- and the Finnish intelligence, often in different combinations.
Some normal persons have asked why we don't show the film? A question only asked by them who haven't seen this terrible nonsense movie.
Once again, "Baltic Storm" is not banned in Sweden. It has some entertaining qualities but what a hell is Donald Sutherland doing in this movie?

A really good film with some fantastic acting, especially Jurgen Prochnow and also should hopefully give audiences greater understanding of the Estonia disaster. Over 800 people died when the ferry sank in 1994 and the official report was not well accepted by the victims families(depicted extremely well in the film by Prochnow). You don't need to know anything about the disaster to watch this film but by the end you will know a hell of a lot. Making use of both testimonies and Jutta Rabe's research this film makes for an extremely suspenseful two hours. The only thing that lets it down is the soundtrack which occasionally branches off into crazy moments when a few characters are introduced. Other than that, a really good film.
Você sabia?
- CuriosidadesThe underwater footage really is that of the Estonia, taken during one of Jutta Rabe's expeditions in 2001
- Erros de gravaçãoThe miniature flag for Estonia on the table with Sweden's and Finland's, appears to be upside down during the initial shots during the press conference. In later shots it is right side up. Hard to see for sure but it appears that way initially.
