This movie wasn’t abominable, but it was by no means huge. I found it quite difficult to follow the storyline, and the special effects were less than convincing (is it unbiased me, or did they exhaust the genuine same shot of the Russian submarine, like, 5 times? ) Some of the acting, Sheen and Hauer included, seemed forced.
The first 45 minutes of the movie were nearly unbearable, but towards the waste, the poke picked up and it became more captivating. I even enjoyed the ending.
(Note: If you are buying this movie for the performance of Dominic Monaghan [as I admit I did], don’t demolish your money on it. He is hardly shown and has ONE line. Fair a heads-up)

Read the book, but DO NOT Occupy THIS TRAVESTY! Worse than a made for TV oversimplification, this HBO film completely distorts and actually REVERSES significant facts of the fair, titillating and necessary yarn detailed in the book upon which it is based (St. Martin’s Press, 1997) . Anyone with respect for the history of submarines and submariners should avoid this dreadful “dramatization.” It isn’t even a “taut thriller,” as People Magazine was quoted as saying. It’s unprejudiced a lifeless whitewash of the real events. Besides failing to expose that an irresponsible cowboy US Submarine Commander (James Von Suskil of the USS AUGUSTA, the man and the ship both cowardly renamed in this low-budget stinker) recklessly caused the accident, they depicted the Russian Captian receiving a hero’s welcome when he returned to the USSR, when in truth he was tragically court-martialed and imprisoned after taking famous steps to build his crew and the eastern seaboard of the US! Why do people originate movies like this, and why do actors like Max Von Sydow and Martin Sheen participate in covering up the misdeeds of a reckless US sub commander and the sinful indifference and cruelty of the Soviet Navy toward its gain sailors. The simple truth of the book would have been far more bright and enlightening. Shame on everyone associated with this exiguous allotment of anti-history!
