Review of Phantom (2013) by Matt R — 03 Aug 2013
A well-acted study of the Russian side of the cold war based on an incident that did happen and events that may have (so it's like Titanic, in other words). The different views expressed by the 'Russian' soldiers about their lot, the Cold War, and the American dogs are as varied as our own were about them at that time.
...a point that is less than subtle when brought up onscreen. Ed Harris is as commanding a presence as ever, and David Duchovny brings a certain air of suspicious mystery to his secret agentish scientist-soldier.
The ending was just sad enough to get me to mist up without an actual tearfall so if you're a fan of Tom Clancy, patriotism, or submarine movies this a film to see.
