The movie "scenes" were exceptionally quick meaning that the time lapse for each scene was much quicker than normal. It was if they believed the attention span of the viewers was limited. Imagine that.
Also there was no break in the action scenes. Just one crisis after another throughout the movie. Again to keep your attention. I counted at least 3 minor heart attacks I had watching the movie.
The fleet of escort ships depicted in the movie were in reality little tiny replicas-the kind I like to get in the bath tub with. I don't know what category those responsible for the miniatures might be at the Academy Awards but they deserve an award.
