    It's actually much better than expected. Comparing the two, it's hard not to think that Chernobyl 25 years later was no accident. Regardless of the amount of fictional elements, this American film at least portrays the former nuclear war opponents as flesh-and-blood individuals with a sense of dignity, and it must be admitted that the glory goes to...

    Three and a half. Catherine Bigelow’s arrogance made many male directors embarrassed. Watching her play you have to think about getting involved, squatting in the corner and fanning your mouth and crying before coming back. The loss of the film went from climax to ending in the last thirty minutes. It was too procrastinating and slowed down the whole rhythm. This is also Bigelow's old...

    (8/10) I watched this movie when I was a child, but I forgot all the plot. I only remember a group of Soviet Red Army who spoke English and cursed the American emperor... The American crew unbiasedly portrayed them as heroes, but they were not ideological ones. This kind of hero, rather than say, is more like "Brothers". They have overcome difficulties with the utmost courage in the trials of life and death again and again. This is a hero who transcends national boundaries. I think this is the...

    Such submarines can also go to sea. Nuclear submarines don’t even have protective clothing. Reactor officers are novices, military doctors are hired temporarily, and crews are in various conditions. Isn’t this a waste of life? The captain, even though he was harsh and conscientious, but in the end he was as deeply affectionate and loved as the crew. As for? The deputy captain, knowing that the old subordinates had mutiny intent, did not affirm their position and warn them, and waited silently...

    Doctrine is clearly ideal. Why is corruption prevalent and administrative inefficiency? While the submarine is waiting for rescue, a group of leaders are in a meeting to study whether they are loyal, which is extremely ridiculous. In the end, everyone was safe and sound, leaving behind a hero and an evocative story. Nothing has changed, efficiency is still low, corruption is still rampant, and when things happen again, people no longer remember the story of being forced to dust, and heroic...

    Rescue of the nuclear reactor. The tough guy film, the fearless spirit of hard work, finally rushed to repair the nuclear submarine with flesh and blood, which is quite touching. There are also emotional remedies for the cowardly, and there are also those who don't agree to donate to justice. The plot is a typical and complete theme film, but it is made by a beauty. The lack of training of the crew and the vulgar deficiencies of the armed forces are somewhat unreliable. The doctor took an...

    At that time, watching those living beings go in and come out dying, it’s...

    After watching it, I found out who the director is. This woman has a really strong taste. Submarine films are not easy to shoot in small and confined spaces, and they are pure disaster films, without war elements. They extol the friendship of fellow men and the spirit of being responsible for the end, as well as the anti-war theme (meaningless sacrifices). But it feels like there is no obvious breakthrough than "Attack from the Sea" and "Hunting Red...

    The imperialist perspective despise the typical communism...what's wrong with me, Lenin possessed the soul? Liberal democracy and communism dictatorship ultimately boil down to "human nature." No matter how good it is, it's useless. Marx will not give him this unsatisfactory heir to death if he lives to this day? Freemasonry is not the same dog thing. The dictatorship of one person and the dictatorship of a handful of...

    Hollywood has the ability to shoot stories from all over the world, and Catherine Bigelow also showed a strong aura in controlling military themes, but the use of British and American actors such as Harrison Ford and Liam Neeson to play Soviet soldiers still made me a little bit out of the picture....

    K-19 (Soviet submarine)

    On October 17, 1958, K-19 officially began construction at the Severodvinsk shipyard. In April 1959, the construction of the K-19 submarine was completed and waiting to be launched. The job of "smashing champagne bottles" in the launching ceremony of the submarine is usually performed by women, but...

    Much better than any blockbuster movie

    In the United States, there is a habit that even in the summer of the flames, new movies may not be released all the time, and sometimes some classic old movies are turned out to let people ruminate.
    Among them, I have to talk about the K-19 that was repeatedly taken out. This is a film many years...
