## Description

Based on Tom Clancy's bestseller, "The Hunt for Red October" seethes with high-tech excitement and the tension of men who hold Doomsday in their hands. A new, technologically superior Soviet nuclear sub, the Red October, is heading for the U.S. coast under the command of Captain Marko Ramius. The American government thinks Ramius is planning to attack. A lone CIA analyst has a different idea: he thinks Ramius is planning to defect, but he has only a few hours to find him and prove it. The entire Russian naval and air commands are trying to find him, too. 1990 135 min

Review: A great must have move for any movie Buff. 4KUD and Atmos is the way to go! - Absolutely the best submarine movie made to date. The underlying story by Tom Clancy is as exciting and thrilling as a movie can get—great story and acting take precedence over the presentation of events. Masteful movie making...
Review: One of the most entertaining action films you can watch - This is a fascinating action film adapted from a fascinating book by Tom Clancy. Even though it takes place back during the Cold War between the U.S.A. and the U.S.S.R., the film is gripping and will hold anybody's interest right from the opening scene to the final scene. Bonus: it's a pure action film and can be watched by the whole family. The plot has been modified from the novel by Tom Clancy and slightly simplified to work better on the screen. Briefly, a Russian submarine commander, Marko Ramius (Sean Connery), plans to defect to the United States; the Russian government tries to stop him by trying to sink him and they convince the American government that Ramius is a rogue commander who wants to nuke America. Jack Ryan, a C.I.A. analyst (Alec Baldwin), is convinced that Ramius is actually trying to defect and winds up going to extreme lengths to assist Ramius. The cast was superbly chosen. Sean Connery is the Lithuanian-born sub commander (a perfect performance - and he has an interesting accent in the film); Alec Baldwin is Jack Ryan (interesting to see him when he was young and thin); James Earl Jones as James Greer the C.I.A. head (great character part); Sam Neill as Borodin the 2nd in command of the Red October (another great character part); Scott Glenn as Bart Mancuso, an American sub commander (and his portrayal makes you hope ALL American sub commanders are like him); Richard Jordan as the National Security Adviser (makes you almost like politicians); Tim Curry as the Russian medical officer (wonderful character part- who knew Tim Curry was really this good?); Courtney Vance as "Jonesy", the American sonar operator (a pitch-perfect performance); Fred Thompson (yes, THAT Fred Thompson before Law & Order) in a really good part as an American Admiral. You can't beat this cast and their performances. The scenes that take place inside the subs are good, but the technology you see are strictly Hollywood - the computer systems and controls are a bit cartoonish - but that's okay - this film is pure entertainment. For years I had the VHS tape and snapped up this Blu-ray version and I am impressed with it's magnificent quality. This DVD is well worth it and one of the most enjoyable action films you can watch.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A masterpiece of a movie
*by R***N on January 24, 2026*

A masterpiece of a movie. 36 years later and it still holds up. Makes most modern movies look like a bunch of children with money making a youtube video. I hope to watch this movie again sometime in ten years and expect to be just as impressed.
