The submarine was born in the Second World War. It was used by the Nazi Germany at that time. This new type of ship, which once caused the entire Allied forces, especially the British Navy, was a headache or even on the verge of collapse. Under the efforts of the German Navy, it developed into a A terrifying and terrifying force, it is no exaggeration to describe them as wolves lurking in the sea, but in the end the Allies still found a way to deal with submarines, the defeat of the German Nazis, the end of World War II, but the submarine this The new force in the navy did not withdraw from the stage of history with the end of World War II. On the contrary, it developed by leaps and bounds during the Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union.

The background of the story of this film is that during such a Cold War confrontation between the United States and the Soviet Union, under the crazy arms race, the super submarine Typhoon-class nuclear submarine "Red October" came into being. This is a water tank with a displacement of more than 30,000 tons. It can carry a large number of missiles and nuclear weapons, and is equipped with the most advanced water jet propulsion system in the world at that time, which makes this behemoth can easily avoid the tracking of sonar and disappear under the eyes of the enemy. invisible. However, on the maiden voyage of this terrifying ship, the story happened. The "Red October" suddenly departed from the scheduled route and disappeared under the vast sea, which made both the Soviet Union and the United States nervous. The subordinates are in an endless network, trying to hunt and kill "Red October". However the result is...

The protagonists of the film were played by veteran movie star Sean Connery and Alec Baldwin, who was in his prime at the time. Sean Connery is what I think is the most handsome old man in Hollywood today, with snow-white hair and a handsome beard, he really looks very attractive, the protagonist of the "007" series so far" The actor with the most "James Bond" has created countless heroic characters in his acting career, and was once the most popular actor in Hollywood. When the flying knives of the years carved traces on his face , his unique temperament and charm have not diminished in the slightest. And his acting skills are also accompanied by the accumulation of years, and he seems to be more mature and hot. In the film, he plays the captain of "Red October" - Marco Remiers. Left a very deep impression, the commander of the submarine rose from the skill to the height of art in the hands. To be honest, Alec Baldwin didn't see much of his works, but he vaguely remembered that he seemed to act a little more in emotional dramas. This movie is the movie he starred in when he was popular. Compared with the old-fashioned Sean Connery, Ben Dr. Ryan, who should be the protagonist of the "Pursuit Trilogy" series, is dwarfed. Although the performance is not bad, there are also many remarkable points, but I personally think that compared with the old movie stars, it is slightly better. downwind. The impression in the film is not as deep as that of Sean Connery.

This film is the first part of the best-selling novel "The Pursuit Trilogy" by famous thriller novelist Tom Clancy. It was put on the screen by Paramount in 1990. It is very admirable that the author of this book—— Tom Clancy, a writer who has no military career, is famous for writing thrilling novels about the military and secret agents. It is really hard to imagine how much homework he has done to write these novels that are so unreal. , how much time it took. As a best-selling thriller novel, the content of the story need not be mentioned. It must be thrilling, exciting, and wonderful. In terms of actor selection, Paramount recruited powerful actors Sean Connery and the then popular Alec Baldwin, what would have been a good combination but...... (and listen to the next break down)

very good movie!

    Maybe it's interesting because of that era. Honestly, Tom is an American egomaniac.
