Jon Monsarrat review: nothing special action flick

Rating: 6/10 (3 August 2002)

I'm an action movie buffs, and I enjoy military thrillers, but I guess keeping K-19: The Widowmaker true to life had an impact on how much action the film could really have.
K-19: The Widowmaker sets up a great conflict of personalities, but ultimately it fizzles out, leaving a film with a fair amount of action, but not as good as "U-571" and certainly not as good as the classics "Crimson Tide" or "The Hunt for Red October".
Who should see this film:
-- action buffs on a rainy day
-- anybody interested in Cold War drama, on a rainy day
I'll give K-19: The Widowmaker a not bad, nothing special 6 out of 10.
