Misión submarino

I am writing my first review to defend this movie and to make a point here....I am what you can call a movie fanatic, had a Netflix account since 2003 and probably watched about 4000 or so movies by now with Action genre being one of my favorites. One of my recent rules of thumb has become to look at both critic and user reviews before watching a movie and then make a decision whether its worth to watch one. Critics are definitely not the only gauge to use these days because I have watched so many good ones that had poor ratings on rotten tomatos for example. And this is definitely the case with Hunter Killer as well. Going into this movie with no expectations I must say I am pleasantly surprised. This movie will definitely not win any awards, but when it comes to delivering an unpredictable, somewhat realistic, edge of your seat action thriller, it delivers on all accounts. With so much CGI filled style over substance movies out there these days, it was a nice throwback to the classic 80's well done action flicks that we all loved growing up . Highly recommend, just dont expect too much and it will be worth it.

Got more than I expected from this action packed thriller. Tense scenes from beginning to end. Multifaceted plot that ties together reasonably. I'll watch anything with Gary Oldman in it but he is unfortunately not in as large a role as you'd believe as a top billed cast member. The acting of Gerard Butler is basically what you'd come to expect from him and he caries the film for the most part. I've seen a lot of comments knocking the realism of the film. I'm not in the Navy, so I can't speak to how all those sequences might play out. But for a movie that takes place in the ocean you would have thought you'd have seen at least one fish!

A very good action movie. I nearly passed it by because of the IMDb rating but so glad I didn't.

Since when did a script that stretches reality make it bad? Anyone seen Avengers...?!

Full of action, excitement, plot twists and yes a bit gung ho but so what.

Don't miss it if you like war/action movies.

Well done ... or as we say with a Navy flag hoist ... Bravo Zulu.

This is really well done. I spent 24 years in the USN and am very familiar with submarine ops. OK, it's a little over the top but feasible. Highly recommended.

Indeed this wasn't the classic American good guys vs Russian bad guys. This movie is a nice action thriller, in which good and bad guys aren't defined by a flag. Good acting, good direction, and overall, good knowledge of the military systems that were or could have been involved in the movie's scenario. Certainly is not my favorite submarine movie, but you will love this one, the best in the modern era. Is really satisfying. The only bad thing is that the movie is self-contained and there won't be a part II.
