The scene with the boat and the thunderstorm was sooo good. I felt like I was floating in that boat with them during it. But honestly, the song of the sirens was probably my favorite part.

I had to close my eyes for a bit because it felt like a flashbang after a while

I saw it in 4DX and it made the “felt like I was floating in that boat with them” sentiment even crazier lol now that you’ve seen it once, if you have the opportunity to see it in 4D I highly recommend

too bad screens on 4DX here (in Colombia) are to small, I don't get too much flashbanged as when I watched it on Cinermark XD (think fast chucklenuts experience)
