More proof that Ebert is a hypocrite. I note unlike some films he has criticized, his moral centre seems rather off here. This film is a highly inaccurate account of the true story of Red October. That aside, look at what this film advocates,More proof that Ebert is a hypocrite. I note unlike some films he has criticized, his moral centre seems rather off here. This film is a highly inaccurate account of the true story of Red October. That aside, look at what this film advocates, State theft of the property of another country. Hardly the actions of a whiter than white State and rather reminiscent of Firefox. More State stealing another State's secrets. If this was the theft of American property we would hear that this was the work of Satan or profound Evil. The acting was fine, the script was to much like US propaganda and little to do with telling a true story. K19 with Harrison Ford did this much better and was an infinitely superior film. This is dated Cold War rhetoric. Expand

This movie was so boring until the the last 20 minutes.For most of the movie their was so much backtracking about the Russian submarines being silent and American political propaganda that it made the whole good 20 minutes not worthwhile.
