Crimson TideTony Scott, 1995 Film DescriptionWhen Russian rebels gain control of nuclear weapons in the USSR, the United States retaliates by deploying the nuclear submarine USS Alabama. Veteran soldier Captain Ramsey (Gene Hackman) selects Lt. Commander Ron Hunter (Denzel Washington) - a Harvard graduate who prefers using brains over weapons - as his Executive Officer. While submerged, the Alabama is attacked by a Russian sub and loses radio contact just as an order is being transmitted from headquarters. Ramsey firmly believes that the interrupted transmission ends with an order to fire their nuclear missiles at the Russian rebels. Hunter, desperate to avoid starting World War III, is determined to re-establish radio contact and act only after complete orders are received. Without the second-in-command's agreement, the missiles cannot be launched, and soon Ramsey and Hunter are engaged in a tense battle of wills, forcing the crew to choose sides. Director Tony Scott keeps the tension running high in this fast-paced military thriller. ReviewsShare your thoughts - write a review Related Genres£26.99 Free Delivery on UK Orders!
