I love the Age of Sail, and the huge fleet battles.
But Michael de Ruyter?  Other than the Dutch and history nuts like us, who knows about the Raider?

Only obvious error I caught was all the explosions.  Solid shot did not cause nice, orange blasts.

Looks great even if I don't know what the hell is going on. Thanks for the heads-up besilarius. Do you have to go Dutch when you see this movie?

I heard over in Holland they stick their fingers in the dykes to stop flooding.  :o I don't really see how that could work but if it saves lives....

Slash, it's out in Holland, and seems to be preparing for an english release.

I'd like to see this as well. Hopefully there will be enough notice around the US release to give us a heads up.


Here's the IMDB page for the film: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2544766/?ref_=fn_al_tt_2
