Norwegian explorer Thor Heyerdal comes up with the idea that South Americans could travel from the east to Polynesia as he visits the area. Nobody believes that pre-Columbian civilizations had the ships to travel those great distances. With support and a ragtag team, he builds a balsa wood raft in 1947 and set off on a 101 day adventure.
It has a bit of drama and a good sense of wonder in it. There is also a sense of impending danger. The ocean filming is well done. I'm not sure how much CGI if any was used. The marine life look very realistic. The sharks are great. The actors are not known to me but they do a good job. The movie has a good sense of doom despite the fact that everybody knows they made it in the end.
