Russell Crowe hits back at Twitter troll

Twitter users must think twice before attacking Russell Crowe because the actor has no qualms about getting into online fights and defending his career for dear life.

Earlier in January, a Twitter user cracked a joke about epic adventure film Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World from 2003, starring Crowe and Paul Bettany in lead roles.

"Lots of folk complaining about lack of sleep during the Pandemic. May I recommend Master And Commander, starring the usually captivating, attention-grabbing Russell Crowe? I've never made it past the ten-minute mark. You're welcome. And thanks Russell," the user quipped.

The tweet eventually made it to the 56-year-old Oscar-winning actor, who did not find it funny at all. "That’s the problem with kids these days. No focus,” Crowe responded.

That’s the problem with kids these days.
No focus.

Peter Weirs film is brilliant. An exacting, detail oriented, epic tale of fidelity to Empire & service, regardless of the cost.
Incredible cinematography by Russell Boyd & a majestic soundtrack.
Definitely an adults movie. https://t.co/22yjNtQRbg

“Peter Weir's film is brilliant. An exacting, detail-oriented, epic tale of fidelity to Empire & service, regardless of the cost. Incredible cinematography by Russell Boyd & a majestic soundtrack. Definitely an adults movie," he added.

The film was nominated for ten Oscars, winning two for Best Cinematography and Best Sounding Design. Russell Crow played a British captain who set out on a mission to rein in a formidable French war vessel around South America.
