Saw master & commander again last night :)
It was even better the second time, I thought. I caught more lines and little book references - there are lots and lots of things that are total throwaway bits as far as the film is concerned, but that will probably please the fans. I won't give them away. Russell Crowe does a great job with the part. I liked Paul Bettany better this time around too. Both of them are a bit too suave though.
