Very Good
Widow maker indeed. If you thought you already know how stressful things are on a wartime submarine? Try a nuclear submarine with a reactor failure. Starting with the champagne bottle that would not break at the christening, you knew things were going to go badly for the sea trials of K-19, Ru…

Good
Has glorifying insubordination gone out of style? If so, watch Flight of the Intruder for some gold old ‘disobey orders for a worthy cause’ nostalgia. The plot is pretty much a joke and tries too hard to be a Carrier borne top gun. That said, if you are like me and enjoy anything that has stres…

Pretty Bad
The movie is an interesting ‘pat ourselves on the back’ action film focusing on the team that got “Geronimoâ€. Unfortunately, it was pretty badly done, from the lackluster acting, to the haphazard story buildup. The best part was the action sequences of the raid itself, but even that was s…

Really Great
Ultimate naval warfare movie, thy name is Master and Commander. It’s got everything: broadside cannon battles, flogging and grogging, close observation of life aboard an early 19th Century warship, mast-top ocean views, even visits to the Galápagos Islands. Ahoy.
Oh yeah, then there’s that…

Really Great
Morituri is a terrible title for a movie, now and in 1965 when this Brando-Brynner warhorse premiered. If that wasn’t bad enough, Marlon Brando refused to do publicity, limiting himself to one line of perverse grandiosity. The movie bombed. So they renamed it The Saboteur: Code Name Morituri…

Great
Visual and historic greatness trumps the wooden acting in Midway, making it a great war movie that is an absolute must for we history buffs and patriots. The Battle of Midway was the Greatest Naval Battle Ever, won by Admiral Chester Nimitz (Woody Harrelson, stolid) & pilots like Dick Best (Ed …
