剧情介绍
该片改编自英国畅销作家佛瑞斯特(C. S. Forester)的最得意作品，描写了18世纪末到19世纪初霍恩布洛尔船长的海上传奇，刻画了一位正直、勇敢、智慧、富有冒险精神并时刻反思人生的船长形象，该书的系列作品到目前仍受到霍恩迷的支持，在国外亦有专门的网站和讨论区交流此作品。本片讲述的是初出茅庐的Hornblower作为一个海军学员的故事，是几年以来不可多得的人物撰记片。
Still serving aboard the HMS Indefatigable, Horatio Hornblower has been promoted to acting Lieutenant. Neutral Spain has concluded a peace treaty with France and the British now have another enemy to face. They soon come across a sunken British supply ship and rescue its Captain, 'Dreadnought' Foster, a man with a reputation for bravery that some consider borders on foolishness. Hornblower is also pleased to learn that Captain Pellew has scheduled him for the next round of Lieutenants exams. Tempers are short with the crew after they are put on half rations due to the lack of supplies. After acquiring more supplies, Hornblower finds himself in charge of a supply ship when it is feared that plague may also be aboard. He soon makes it to Gibraltar, but when the enemy send a fire ship into the harbor, he must act quickly to avert disaster.
海上沙普系列......
个人观点的系列最佳，充满了少年冒险的感觉和个人奋斗的故事
对这个系列爱到什么程度呢，有好几年我认为男主演是世界上最好看的人
昨晚重看，依然很棒。
小霍显露考试苦手体质了，第一部里您把罗盘扔进海里的那股自信去哪里了hhh
得知小船长考前背书也很烂我就放心了，这系列真是拍的太可爱了
步兵就看Sharpe，海战就看Hornblower。军事迷应该会很喜欢!
热血！准备把一系列补齐
小霍船长这一系列拍的都蛮良心的。
本集要有趣多了，除了长得像佩佩的军官片末还惊现巴利斯坦爵士
鼠疫；补给；火攻船
因为自己好多考试所以每次看到Horatio复习考试就焦躁起来，然后看到他考试没过居然舒了一口气。其实航海时代的船员真的太苦了，还是有复制机和传送机比较舒服（喂跑偏了！）主角的缺点是设定真的太年轻了呢，虽然Ioan看上去还是比较成熟的。
火船那一段超精彩
能开船，会打枪，爱学习，还能关心下属，偶尔多愁善感，英国人对自己的海军真是不吝赞美，小霍还能更迷人嘛？
