“The Vessel” (*1/2 out of four) was a boring drama starring Martin Sheen going through the motions and paying the bills as a priest in an oceanic town destroyed by a tsunami and a troubled young man (Lucas Quintana) then builds a structure out of the school’s remains which stirs passions up among the townsfolk. Nice to see Sheen is aging so well at nearly 80 years old but this molasses-moving movie is unworthy of him. Mercifully short at only 1 hour and 26 minutes but feels like a much longer vessel than that.
