Movie Reviews of Crash Dive
Movie Review: "Crash Dive" is an appropriate name for this movie
Summary: 1 Stars
This movie is bad, and I do mean BAD! On what planet do you think a top-secret classified sub ladened with nuclear weapons would surface to rescue boaters in distress? Apparently, they never got the memo that nuclear subs are supposed to "run silent, run deep". Or how about one of the rescued boaters walking around unguarded on the sub asking a serviceman "What room is this?" His response: "Oh, this is where we keep the nuclear weapons." With laughable depictions like these, I am surprised the real Navy didn't sue for defamation.
The Russians are probably kicking themselves that they didn't think of a plan like this. They could have put a bunch of Russian operatives out to sea in sinking boats, sent out distress signals, and just waited for U.S. nuclear subs to come their rescue. The Russians would have taken over our entire fleet in no time. If this movie was any real depiction of our navy, all Americans would be well on our way to speaking Russian instead of Spanish. LOL!
The acting is over-the-top. The heroic background music is over-the-top. The premise is so absurd it's impossible to take the movie seriously. Since when did terrorists start carrying photo IDs with them on terrorist missions? And the laughs just keep on coming.
Don't get me wrong, this movie is not without its moments. The suspense of what the next cheesey scene was going to be kept me riveted.
Summary of Crash Dive
The USS Ulysses, a 688 Attack Class atomic submarine patrolling in the South Atlantic, encounters five survivors of a shipwreck clinging to a lifeboat. Although their orders prohibit them from taking passengers on board, Commander Derek decides to rescue them. But the shipwreck is a hoax and the survivors are a band of terrorists. On board the Ulysses, the terrorists take control of the submarine and its nuclear missiles. Destination: Washington, D.C. Purpose: Nuclear blackmail and terrorism. A billion dollars in gold bullion or Washington D.C. becomes ground zero in a nuclear attack. As the highest halls of government scramble in terror, one man embarks on a mission to help save his country. James Allen Carter, Navy Data Analyst, expert in submarines, secretly scuba dives onto the Ulysses. Quickly and covertly, he assembles an anti-terrorist team using the combined skills of the submarine crew members. Hiding onboard the Ulysses, Carter begins playing a deadly game of cat and mouse with the terrorists. But the terrorists fight back with added force.This product is manufactured on demand using DVD-R recordable media. Amazon.com's standard return policy will apply.
