Austin J @Austin765 7h An absolute must-see for sure! Connery & Baldwin should've won Oscars for their acting in this movie. One of the best Submarine movies I've watched. Definitely recommend & 5/5 Stars! See more Rohan H Oct 31 The Hunt for Red October (1990) is a masterful blend of intelligence, tension, and spectacle — a Cold War thriller that has lost none of its power with time. Directed by John McTiernan and based on Tom Clancy’s bestselling novel, the film is a gripping story of strategy, loyalty, and the razor’s edge between peace and destruction. Sean Connery delivers one of his finest late-career performances as Captain Marko Ramius, a seasoned Soviet submarine commander who sets out to defect to the United States with his state-of-the-art nuclear submarine, the Red October. Opposite him, Alec Baldwin shines as CIA analyst Jack Ryan, whose intellect and intuition become humanity’s best hope to prevent war. The dynamic between the two men — one a cool, enigmatic veteran, the other a determined and idealistic analyst — drives the film’s suspense beautifully. The supporting cast is equally impressive, featuring standout performances from Scott Glenn, Sam Neill, James Earl Jones, and Courtney B. Vance. Each actor adds authenticity and depth to the high-stakes world of naval warfare, ensuring that every scene feels grounded and believable. McTiernan’s direction is superb, balancing complex political and military details with edge-of-your-seat tension. The underwater cinematography captures the claustrophobic intensity of submarine life, while Basil Poledouris’s stirring musical score perfectly complements the film’s tone — heroic, somber, and filled with quiet dread. What makes The Hunt for Red October exceptional is its intelligence. It doesn’t rely on explosions or endless action; instead, it builds suspense through strategy, character, and atmosphere. Every decision feels meaningful, every line of dialogue charged with tension. The result is a film that respects its audience’s intelligence while delivering pure cinematic excitement.

Aqui ele faz o papel Cap. Ramius que agora esta com o mais avançado submarino russo; E como sempre tendo a tensão entre EUA e Russia. Em várias cenas de suspense e de esconde, esconde e perseguições. Um filme bem produzido com boas atuações dos atores. Bom enredo e estória. Até o momento que a verdadeira intensão de Ramius era de deserção e morar na EUA. Vale apena assistir?: Sim e se prepare para um bom suspense. Nota: 8 See more alan G. @agenser Oct 21 Great action film. Believable because of the acting. See more Chris P Sep 28 One of my top 10 movies of all time. Grew up watching this movie and it still, after all these years, works. Just watched it for probably the 30th time-it just doesn't get old. Awesome cast, sad many of them have passed away. See more Russell H Sep 20 Well acted but boring to me See more Read all reviews
