Review of Black Sea (2014) by Tvjerry — 03 Feb 2015

A jobless submarine captain (Jude Law) assembles a crew of British and Russian sailors to rescue a cache of gold from a sunken Nazi boat. Problems arise from their national differences, unfortunate accidents and the inevitable greed.

While the conflicts seem constant and become a bit repetitive, there are moments of tension and some unexpected turns to hold interest. As the leader, Law gets to flex his dramatic skills, while fearlessly holding things together.

This film will most likely sink into oblivion, but those who like this sort of claustrophobic action should find it worthwhile.
