I loved the overhead shot of the boat and the far away shots of the tiny craft bobbing on the waves...The movement of the boat and of the people, with it's rolling up and down, side to side movement, looks very believable to anyone who's been in a small boat in the ocean.

I must say that I don't necessary agree with all of the captain's choices about the people to keep and I certainly don't agree with the reactions of some people who were chosen to stay.

However, I really liked scenes like the storm scene and the final scene, where the camera shows more than just the faces of the characters.
