Product: Polar Storm (2009)
Rating: 3.0
Lost potential
This movie is fast paced, maybe too fast paced. This could have been worked up into a fairly credible mini series, but as is leaves the viewer wondering about the credibility issues. There are gaps you could drive a tractor trailer through. The actor playing the son of the main protagonist is morose at best or bored. Somebody feed that kid a happy pill. The scene with the Russians had potential that could have borne fruit in a mini series, but is merely glanced over. The Russian captain was a little too ernest. And just where did they get that Type VIIC WWII sub anyway? The west coast had a Russian diesel sub on display for some time, and it did not look like that one.Good premise, but mediocre movies.
