Bad title but not a bad NF documentary

The Trainwreck series of Netflix documentaries has one underlying theme: Americans, if given free reign, can be as crass and depraved as anything featured in the notorious Penthouse-produced movie Caligula. As an American, I watch these documentaries with a mix of fascination and shock. If we still had a mental health care program in the United States, most of the people featured in these documentaries would probably wind up in wards.This documentary's title is off putting, juvenile and like something from a National Enquirer tabloid headline. But I watched it anyway for the hell of it. At only an hour, it's not a long time investment. And it has its merits. The recreation of the bad conditions on the ship are engrossing. The most revealing interviews come from the staff of the Carnival ship - mainly Jen the "Julie McCoy" of the cruise, and the chef originally from India (I can't recall his name). An executive from Carnival is interviewed too, which is a surprise. Of course in typical executive form, he is mostly unapologetic, claims the "media" blew the disaster out of proportion (the horrible "fake news" media strikes again...), and all Carnival liners are subjected to rigorous inspections before they launch.On the other side of the executive perspective, there are interviews with a maritime attorney who specializes in cases against luxury cruise ships. He reveals that at the time, all ticket purchasers of Carnival cruise lines had to agree to a clause, likely in very small print buried on page 5 of the text-heavy application, that passengers are basically on their own in the case of a disaster at sea...anything apparently from hitting an iceberg to a fire that causes the power to go and all of the toilets to stop working.Thus, the "poop" angle of the documentary. Most passengers interviewed freaked out at the thought of (OMG) doing "number 2" in a red biohazard bag. It's not as if the ship had a shortage of biohazard canisters or toilet paper. So thus begins the American entitlement reveal. Three young women are interviewed prominently. Their only objective on the bachelorette party/cruise is to drink, day and night. They need to take an expensive cruise just to do THAT? They could have saved a ton of money by just spending a long weekend at a hotel next door to an Applebee's.Other passengers include a young guy who traveled with his fiancé and her father, who seems to be auditioning for a movie most of the time. Besides the two Carnival staff interviewed, perhaps the most sympathetic subjects are a father and daughter duo from Lubbock, TX. But at the time the daughter was 13, and why the hell dad that it was a good idea to "relax" with her daughter (who was 13 at the time) on such a decadent cruise is anyone's guess.Maybe this is being too critical of the subjects being interviewed. They experienced a horrible ordeal with at one time no end in sight. But whoever at Carnival made the decision to offer free alcohol on the third day of being stranded to these most likely sleep- and nutrition-deprived, hungry, frustrated, and delirious passengers should have his or her head examined. If they wanted total Roman Empire violence, sex, and debauchery, they sure got it, before a wiser employee shut the bar down.The takeaway from all of this, for me at least, is that if I ever have an itch to take a cruise, it will be on a paddleboat on the Mississippi River. At least then, if anything goes haywire, we can swim to shore.

A Perfect Storm of Poop and Schadenfreude

They say it's not nice to laugh at other people's misfortunes, but sorry, I couldn't help but laugh.In February 2013, everything was going fine on the Carnival Triumph luxury cruise ship until day four, when a fire knocked out the ship's electricity. This, in turn, disabled the toilets, leaving passengers with the option to do number ones in the shower and number twos in a red poop bag.Most of the food had to be thrown away, thanks to no refrigeration, leaving passengers with crappy, unappealing sandwiches and not much else. A plan to give passengers free drinks didn't go well, as it seems drunk passengers on a broken cruise ship stuck in the middle of the Gulf of Mexico was a recipe for yet more disaster.This is just day one; it gets worse, much worse. I felt bad for laughing, but I couldn't help it.Eventually, the media got a whiff of the story, which is much better for them than the whiff of pee and poop being endured by the poor passengers and crew of the Carnival Triumph.It turns out there were plenty of warning signs that this could happen. There had been several fires on Carnival's ships, and this fire was caused by a leak in a diesel engine's flexible fuel oil return line that spilt onto a hot surface and ignited. This was not the fault of the crew, who came across as guardian angels, thus saving Carnival Cruise Line a little bit of face, but not much.This is the third of the Netflix Trainwreck series I've seen, and probably the best so far. Thankfully, nobody died in this disaster, but anyone watching will surely be glad they were not on that boat.

A deep dive into a brownout at sea.

I went in expecting a standard maritime disaster doc, but Trainwreck: Poop Cruise goes all-in - plumbing the depths of human endurance and waste management failure. It's a truly unfiltered look at what happens when your dream vacation takes a nosedive... straight into the crapper.The film circles the 2013 Carnival Triumph incident, a floating festival that turned into a full-blown biohazard with a side of buffet regret. One engine fire, and suddenly this pleasure cruise became a slow-moving brown submarine adrift in the Gulf of Mexico, floating in what can only be described as the world's saddest fondue fountain.While the media dubbed it the "Poop Cruise," the documentary handles the topic with surprising seriousness - even as it gets a little messy (figuratively and literally). Watching passengers tiptoe through cabin corridors like it was the final level of a Super Mario sewage mission was both tragic and a little surreal. You could say the ship really hit rock bottom.What really flushed me with emotion, though, was the treatment of the crew. These folks were knee-deep in disaster and somehow managed to keep the lid on total chaos. They didn't just go the extra mile - they practically waded through it. The way they handled the crisis was nothing short of a miracle... though the aroma suggested otherwise.Still, I came away with one burning, butt-clenching question: why don't these cruise ships have a better playbook for this kind of thing? Like, no offense, but when your whole business model involves thousands of humans floating in a steel toilet bowl for a week, maybe have a "just-in-case-things-go-brown" protocol. No blueprint? No contingency? Really? That stinks.Honestly, for a billion-dollar industry, you'd think they could afford a plan more robust than "cross your legs and hope the plumbing holds." It's not like this was the first time nature called at sea. Surely by now, someone's figured out how to keep things from backing up when the power goes out.The film is well-edited, with plenty of candid footage - sometimes too candid - including scenes that'll make you think twice before trusting a ship's ventilation system. And the color grading? Let's just say there's a whole lot of brown and yellow going on. Coincidence? I think not.In the end, Trainwreck: Poop Cruise is less about scatological shock value and more about resilience - even if the smell lingers. It's a reminder that when the crap hits the fan, someone's got to grab a mop and pretend everything's fine.8 out of 10 stars. Docked two stars... for obvious, flush-related reasons.
