Dave E great old british movie with a very dark turn . worth a watch Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/29/24 Full Review kevin w An interesting curio, sort of a British Twilight Zone, about how a once dutiful small craft British warship (like an American PT boat) is used to smuggle (gasp! oh no!) in the financial doldrums after WW2. Can the creeping sense of vengeful karma be far behind her? It's all done very workmanlike, with only hints of naval superstitions lurking in shadows beneath the decks. Veddy British feel all about the work as well. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member A very watchable movie about a wartime torpedo boat having given exemplary service during the war being rescued from the scrapyard by its former commanding officer and executive officer. Beginning by running bootleg alcohol and nylons, the pair begin to use the boat for more seemingly lucrative but noticeably darker jobs and the boat begins to give them trouble. After the boat is used to transport a child murder away from justice, the boat seemingly gives up and eventually smashes itself onto rocks, destroying itself. Another good Moserrat story made into an equally good movie. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/13/23 Full Review Audience Member A good yarn about Royal Navy veterans shortly after the war using the surplus RN torpedo boat they once served on, for the purposes of smuggling between the UK & the continent.
