They are heading for Russia, ready to intervene in an escalating crisis which could result in the outbreak of World War 3. When they then receive orders to launch their missiles, Ramsay and Hunter clash over the validity of the command and mutiny ensues. desertcart.co.uk Review In the typical Don Simpson-Jerry Bruckheimer mould(the partnership yielded Top Gun and Days of Thunder, among many other films), this 1995 drama is a combination of one-dimensional but enjoyable performances, lots of high-tech nonsense taking place on-screen, and mechanistic movie-making at its loudest and most seizure-inducing. Gene Hackman and Denzel Washington play nuclear submarine officers squaring off over the former's apparent intention to do some unauthorised damage to an enemy. Tony Scott (Top Gun) directed, bringing his lustre and pop commercial sense to go with all that Simpson-Bruckheimer eye candy. --Tom Keogh Review: great - great movie Review: In the nuclear world, the true enemy is war itself - After the 80's unthinking testosterone action movies, the 90's marked a real change in action ouput, even from the Bruckheimer / Simpson producing team - and so came about this unusually intelligent war movie. Following in the tradition of classic submarine movies like `The Hunt for Red Octobe' or `Das Boot', there are all the traditional action notes you would expect - torpedo attack, flooding compartments, sinking towards crush depth etc., all done with the technical and editorial perfection you would expect from Tony `Top Gun' Scott. However, all the action is merely a backdrop for a real character study and moral dilemna. Hackman's veteran Captain is of the old school, `I like things simple' approach. When unrest in Russia becomes critical enough for them to receive orders to launch their nuclear payload, he sets out to perform his duty. However, a second message is received - and it is incomplete, therefore can not be verified. The radio goes down, and the sub is now out of touch with the rest of the world. The `new school' Executive Officer played by Denzel Washington feels strongly enough that they should not follow through with the launch until the message is verified, leading him into direct conflict with the Captain and a tense, riveting and exciting showdown ensues. The action is note perfect, but it is the acting that makes the movie stand out. Seeing Washington and Hackman `mano-a-mano', cannot fail to knock your socks off with its intensity. Indeed, all the actors have their moments to shine, including a pre-Lord of the Rings Viggo Mortensen, and an excellent George Dzundza playing `Chief of the Boat'. One early scene encapsulates all that is good about the movie - in the officers mess, a philosophical debate occurs around the launching of the atomic bomb on Japan. Hackman defends the bombing, but Washington at the end of a verbal cat and mouse interplay, replies that `In the age of nuclear weapons, the true enemy is war itself. It is this conflict of ideas that haunts the movie, and the viewer, long after the movie is over. There are no out and out bad guys - just two principled men with different world views -surely there can be no greater drama. The extended cut offers no substantial difference to the original, and seems to have little reason for existing. The scenes reinstated are almost all minor character moments, giving the minor characters in the movie more time to shine, and helping consolidate the feeling of camaraderie in the submarine, which makes the eventual schism that much more shattering. Other than that, there is a small documentary about the movie which is more promotional than educational. If you have not seen the movie, do so immediately. If you have, and wonder if the extended cut is worth getting? I say don't waste your time. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000PI3UEU | | Actors | Denzel Washington, Gene Hackman, George Dzundza, James Gandolfini, Viggo Mortensen | | Aspect Ratio | 16:9 - 1.78:1 | | Best Sellers Rank | 15,231 in DVD & Blu-ray ( See Top 100 in DVD & Blu-ray ) 1,467 in Crime (DVD & Blu-ray) 1,950 in Thriller (DVD & Blu-ray) 3,334 in Action & Adventure (DVD & Blu-ray) | | Country of origin | Austria | | Customer reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (2,395) | | Director | Tony Scott | | Item model number | B000PI3UEU | | Language | English (Dolby Digital 5.1), French (DTS 5.1), French (Dolby Digital 5.1) | | Media Format | Blu-ray, PAL | | Number of discs | 1 | | Producers | Don Simpson, Jerry Bruckheimer | | Product Dimensions | 1.17 x 17.09 x 13.26 cm; 81.65 g | | Release date | 2 July 2007 | | Run time | 1 hour and 56 minutes | | Studio | Walt Disney Studios HE | | Subtitles: | Danish, Dutch, English, Finnish, French, Icelandic, Norwegian, Spanish, Swedish | | Writers | Michael Schiffer | ## Product Details - **Format:** Blu-ray, PAL - **Genre:** Action & Adventure - **Language:** English - **Runtime:** 1 hour and 56 minutes ## Images ![CRIMSON TIDE BD - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81FGiFT3oGL.jpg) ![CRIMSON TIDE BD - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91DJLvQ-taL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ great *by C***N on 5 February 2026* great movie ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ In the nuclear world, the true enemy is war itself *by M***Y on 25 August 2007* After the 80's unthinking testosterone action movies, the 90's marked a real change in action ouput, even from the Bruckheimer / Simpson producing team - and so came about this unusually intelligent war movie.
