Review of The Hunt for Red October (1990) by Kev R — 11 Feb 2010
So disappointing. A movie that is extremely plot-driven, yet having a plot that is at once overplotted and vacuous. All the characters simply exist in the moment with nary a backstory or any kind of motivation.
Connery, Baldwin, and Sam Neil are all wasted. The movie doesn't sink as it isn't wholly boring, but it never rises out of the murky water its submerged in.
