Hunter Killer

Not a deep plot, but entertaining and fun to watch at least once.

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.

I don't usually write reviews, but after coming back home from watching a bore at the cinema we needed a pick me up movie, and this was it. If you liked Olympus has fallen , you will like this one.

I believe all those critics out there who panned this action flick could not fathom the thought that normal human beings can pull off a heroic act. I guess they are cool with bunch of lab experiments saving the world again and again despite all the differences but when the same feat is pulled off by normal looking characters who happen to be well trained officers then it all of a sudden becomes outlandish. Yes, we indeed have seen a lot of rescue missions but what makes this so different is that very few were pulled off by brave men from both sides (obviously enemies of each other by worldly rules) for the right cause. Off course this doesn't happen in real life, but seriously were you here to witness a documentary on war? No offense to anyone but I believe there is a certain group out there lobbying against this guy, I don't know for what reason, but this surely is very unprofessional to allow your personal grudges creep into the professional front.

There is nothing wrong with this flick except for the hypocritical reviews that made it a box office disaster!

As has been stated I do not understand why this movie is rated so low other than I suspect it is from people who are not into the whole submarine warfare drama. As a big fan of Crimson Tide and U-571 this movie really scratched an itch I have had for quite a while now. I thought the cinematography and action sequences especially the explosives were excellent. I also enjoyed the combination of the seal team mission with the drama playing out on the submarine. The only reason I am not reading the movie higher as I thought some of the casting was a little off. I had a hard time excepting Common as an admiral. He did not seem old enough to be an admiral and just seemed out of place the whole movie. I thought Gerard Butler did a decent job as the Captain of the Arkansas but I had a problem with him trying to cover up his Scottish accent. I also thought there were a few holes in the plot such as how they were going to get the sub back through the minefield even if everything went as planned. However none of it was significant enough to spoil the movie as a whole. The funny thing is something very similar to this almost happened when Boris Yeltsin was president of Russia. I could easily see the US having gotten involved in helping to defeat the coup attempt made against him.
