A Reality Check Below Deck

I worked as a crew member on cruise ships for eight years, and this is a raw, almost love letter to the highs, lows, and harsh realities of life onboard.The truth about working on a cruise ship stands in stark contrast to the experiences most guests have-or even want to know about. It's a tough world, made harder by the countless missed birthdays, weddings, and births. Every crew member sacrifices precious moments while enduring the unique challenges of ship life every single day.Reading this brought back vivid flashbacks to a completely different chapter of my life and career. I felt it in my soul. And yes, as the review above mentions, there's plenty of hooking up-but honestly, what would you do if you were confined to a floating steel box for six to nine months at a time?What's real are the relationships, the struggles, and the military-like discipline that governs life onboard. For the first time, the world gets an authentic glimpse into the realities of "ship life," and I couldn't be more thrilled to see it.

Absolute garbage

Very poorly produced, low-budget 'documentary'. For the most part, the cast seems like hired actors and not actual crew members of a real cruise ship. Most of what the film covers is tedious and infantile, like crew members partying or hooking up.There is, I suppose, a behind the scenes type of look at the crew quarters that you don't normally get to see. But it's mostly the same areas repeated over and over.There's no substance or cohesive narritive. Just banal sayings and trivial information that is obvious.The cast members are not particularly likeable or interesting to follow, and a lot of what transpires seems fictional, like a bad reality show.Avoid.

Really interesting insight into the otherside of cruise ships.

Love to see a documentary that shows the side of a life I haven't had in such a real and accessible way. Honestly I found it quite ironically relaxing to watch, considering how hard it shows the cruise ship crew having to work. I definitely prefer working on land myself but it is lovely to be able to see other lives and I love relaxing insider documentaries like this. Really enjoyed seeing how they deal with all the potential issues on board and the human cost side of the work. I was very surprised as to the pay. A very relaxing time watching other people work hard to make a relaxing time for other people. ?
