Review of Down Periscope (1996) by Jordan K — 09 Mar 2014
One of the worst and most boring 90s comedies I've ever seen. Awful concept, unlikable characters, and the humor of a childish toilet humor sitcom. It's all awful and extremely unbearable to sit through.
The film centers around Kelsey Grammer playing an idiotic yet reasonable naval captain who is in charge of his own run down submarine, reused from WWII. The rest is Police Academy mixed with Gomer Pyle when the sub crew is filled with idiots and egomaniacs.
Not much I can say about Down Periscope, only that I stopped the film halfway in because it was so godawful. Extremely boring and unlikable comedy that will appeal to the most immature of theater audiences.
