Great Suspense - Great Characters
"Crimson Tide" is one of those movies that do not let you relax for a single
second. The suspense of the film is great, and the plot develops fast. Although the storyline is played most of the time in the same claustrophobic setting (a nuclear US submarine), there is not a single moment of boredom: Situations change rapidly, and the action is immense. "Crimson Tide" is also a film of great characters: The collision between the captain (Gene Hackman) and the XO (Denzel Washington) is portrayed and played artfully, as it develops gradually throughout the film. The captain is a raw, straight and simple type of officer, who has seen action in his career, and inherently cannot have much trust his Harvard-educated XO. A subtle racist feeling also seems to be present in his overall prejudice. The XO on the other hand, is the reasonable, think-twice guy, who cannot accept that decisions that will affect the whole mankind (a nuclear holocaust) can be taken without double-checking first. The clash of the two is inevitable, and both G.H. and D.W. are great in their respective roles. Overall, the film deserves an 8/10.. freewind watch Day Of Wrath movie

Intense!
I love this film for it's intensity,particularly the intense
relationship of the characters portrayed by Gene Hackman and Denzel Washington.They are two men at odds in the worst of situations;the possibility of war.It all involves an incomplete transmission.It could mean war,it could mean nothing at all.What do you do?You could strike your enemy before he strikes you,but would the strike be uncalled for? It's the not knowing that creates the intensity.Hackman and Washington are excellent actors,which goes without saying since they are both Oscar winners,and they play off of each other extremely well in this film. This fact alone makes it a must see,but the film's content is equally as impressive.. |
