Any one looking forward to this movie? I'm a big fan of Hunt for Red October and Crimson Tide, so it's on my list.

I'm betting this is more "Battleship" than "Red October.". .
Looks exceedingly cheesy.

From the ads and trailers, it is going to exceed my "suspension of disbelief" threshold by a wide margin. I'm going to pass.

I know nothing about this movie; however, the Pentagon thought hosting a press conference with the movie's star, Gerard Butler, was a good idea:

Looks like a good movie to watch while cleaning my guns.

I am a sucker for submarine movies. Even Down Periscope. One of my Favorites: Assault On A Queen With Ol'Blue Eyes! I will probably see this just for the submarine factor.
