Movie Reviews of Ice Station Zebra

Movie Review: A neat thriller
Summary: 5 Stars

A Russian spy satellite comes down at the North Pole and it's a race between the U.S. and U.S.S.R. to see who gets there first. Rock Hudson as the U.S. sub commander, Patrick MacGoohan as a mysterious British agent, Ernest Borgnine as a Russian defector and Jim Brown as a hard nosed Marine officer. Not quite up to the novel from which it was adapted but still, an entertaining window on a past era: the Cold War. Also starring Tony Bill as a young Marine Lt. and Alf Kjellin as a Russian officer.

Movie Review: Hudson Makes Captain
Summary: 5 Stars

Rock Hudson was always a better actor than many gave him credit for, he was so believable in any role, at this time he finished "Seconds" some felt that seconds was he best film, I content movies like "Zebra" are more difficult you can say that Hudson is in his element it's tough to play yourself, when we all know Rock wasn't captain but he connivence he was the captain of the boat. That's true acting, See "Ice Station Zebra" you will not be disappointed.

Movie Review: one of the better films of all-time
Summary: 5 Stars

cold-war saga, starring Rock Hudson, Patrick MacGoohan, Ernest Borgnine & Jim Brown. The suspense begins when Hudson as the captain of a US nuclear submarine is given a mission to a north pole research station manned by British and American scientists...
As a side note, one wonders if this was the reason that the 'Drake' character from Secret Agent finally resigned from being a spy and ended up being taken to 'The Village' as The Prisoner?

Movie Review: A Classic Cold War Drama
Summary: 5 Stars

Students of the cold war era will be thrilled with this one. Rock Hudson as the tough submarine captain hero protecting us from the evil Soviets and our own Intelligence gathering organizations alike. Great military jargon with lots of cold-war weapons systems. The MiG flying over the ice is a classic thrill ride. This spy-thriller is a must see.

Movie Review: a great spy movie!
Summary: 5 Stars

Finally this thing is out on DVD! Would have been nice to have more extras, but guess we all should be glad it's out at all. The quality of the transfer seems to be really clear, with no visible 'glitches'.

Bought "Ice Station Zebra" mainly because I'm a big Patrick McGoohan fan. :)
