Endurance (2024)
Movie
Released
Ernest Shackleton's Antarctic expedition of the 1910s and the 2022 search that finally found his lost ship run side by side, so the film cuts between a survival story and a treasure hunt. That back-and-forth keeps the suspense high for older kids, and the moment the wreck appears on the sea floor is a genuine cheer.
This one is for about ten and up. Archive footage shows illness and injury, a brief reenactment of a toe amputation ends on a shot of the severed toe, and the crew's killing of their dogs and cats for food is described. The BBFC rates it PG in the UK; it has no MPA rating in the US.
