Movies that are made to tell a true story rarely do. Therefore this is a movie that is based on truth but largely a product of imagination. It covers a true very intriguing story. But it stumbles in the telling the same way all true story movies stumble. Gaps in the true story are routinely filled with non truths. This story has an ending that no living person who participated has ever told any one. Yet facts are wildly fabricated and presented as true because "it's a true story" and accepted just as true as the truly true and verifiable parts are true. What happened to father and son explorers, who never came home and we're never found? We do not know even the part.
In the Perfect Storm, the boat and crew are lost at see and never seen. The movie however fills the gaps with fantastic scenes of gigantic waves swallowing the boat and crew.
