	Crimson Tide - Movie Rental Review
		With an all-star cast and a compelling subject --- nuclear war with an unpredictable adversary -- CRIMSON TIDE is worthy viewing for any teen considering joining the military.
		When the film was released in 1995, filmmaker Tony Scott couldn't have known terrorists would attack the U.S. and the whole country would be on high alert.
		Crimson Tide is a coming-of-age story inside a melodrama inside a pretty impressive war movie.

	Crimson Tide (1995)
		While the sub attack scenes in Crimson Tide strike me in somewhat the same vein, I believe they're much more defensible if simply because a) they make sense within the context of the story; and b) they prove to be essential in the advancement of the plot.
		Crimson Tide appears in an aspect ratio of approximately 2.35:1 on this single-sided, single-layered DVD; the image has not been enhanced for 16X9 televisions.
		The movie consistently displayed a solid sense of environment, and the sub attack sequences brought the rears into the picture to a positive degree; they made the viewer a part of the action.

	'Crimson Tide'
		orld War III is imminent as the mighty USS Alabama is launched in "Crimson Tide," an obvious, submarine-set reworking of the 1964 nuclear Armageddon drama "Fail-Safe." This time around, Earth's fate rests in the hands of two dedicated Navy officers: the Alabama's combat-seasoned Capt. Ramsey (Gene Hackman) and his untested executive officer, Lt. Cmdr.
		"Crimson Tide" reunites "Top Gun" producers Don Simpson and Jerry Bruckheimer with director Tony Scott, but it is neither as flashy nor as vapid as that Tom Cruise flick.
		Crimson Tide is rated R for profanity and violence.

		From the first CNN scenes in CRIMSON TIDE of Russia fighting a civil war in one of their breakaway republics and then Russian nationalists taking over part of the military, I realized how close this was to the real news reports from over there that we are all naively been ignoring.

		The subtitles can be switched without interrupting the movie, but the audio requires a pass through the setup menu to substitute French-language title cards that mark the passage of time.

	Crimson Tide mistakes, goofs and bloopers
		Factual error: Approximately 35 to 40 minutes into the movie, when Denzel is talking to the crew about upgrading to DEFCON 3, they say the last time was 32 1/2 years ago during the Cuban missile crisis of October 1962.
		Deliberate "mistake": During the part of the movie where the USS Alabama is sinking deeper into the ocean a shot of the depth gauge was made showing the sub passing 1800 feet at a quick rate.
		Other: Near the start of the movie, when Hackman initiates the Missile Drill, one of the seaman can be seen to be throwing a blanket over the fish tank by his bunk.

		In CRIMSON TIDE, director Tony Scott allows the events on the USS Alabama, a nuclear submarine, to force viewers to confront some truly ugly but inevitable revelations: that in some dicey situations there are no good versus bad guys, just decent men who demand that events follow their own unique perceptions of those events.
		CRIMSON TIDE is a claustrophobic testosterone filled plunge into the icy waters of duty versus rationality.
		CRIMSON TIDE is a terrific film that requires the viewer to face such a choice whether he wants to or not.

	Crimson Tide \| movies : ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY
		In the spectacular new submarine thriller, CRIMSON TIDE (Hollywood, R), a Russian nationalist leader seizes control of a nuclear-missile base and threatens to start bombing the U.S. Standing between America and Armageddon is the USS Alabama, a Trident ballistic submarine that sets off for the North Pacific equipped with nuclear missiles.
		What makes Crimson Tide a riveting pop drama is the way the conflict comes to the fore in the battle between two men: the Alabama's commander, Capt. Frank Ramsey (Gene Hackman), a ballsy, cigar-chomping veteran of the Cold War, and his executive officer, Lieut.
		Crimson Tide squares its sensual revel in military hardware with the realities of an era in which unchecked displays of force can lead more easily than ever to disaster.

	Crimson Tide (film) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Crimson Tide is a 1995 Hollywood submarine film starring Denzel Washington and Gene Hackman and directed by Tony Scott.
		The movie culminates in a review at the Pacific Fleet headquarters in Hawaii where several admirals express grave concern about the breakdown of nuclear launch operations in wartime.
		While the elder Ramsey voluntarily retires and the young Hunter is given a command, the movie aims to present the intractably uncertain nature of the launch scenario, in essence placing full blame on neither character.

		Taking a look at some of the movies that Tony Scott has put out (Top Gun, Days of Thunder, The Last Boy Scout) it's hard to accept that Crimson Tide is his movie.

	deseretnews.com - Movie review: Crimson Tide \| Deseret Morning News Web edition
		Gene Hackman proves once again, this time in "Crimson Tide," why he is one of our best actors, taking a character that could have been played as a broad variation on Captain Queeg and instead investing him with depth and dimension.
		There's a bit of "The Hunt for Red October," "Das Boot" and "Dr. Strangelove" here, along with a generous dollop of "The Caine Mutiny," but instead of a mishmash the result is a first-rate thriller that delivers an enormous amount of suspense.
		Tony Scott has ruined many a movie with his MTV-influenced quick-cut editing style and angled camera movement, but here he allows the drama of the conflict and his two fabulous lead actors to take precedence over razzle-dazzle technique.

		In the scene when the order goes out to open the torpedo doors for tubes 2 and 4 (which are on the Port or Left side) they actually show the doors for tubes 1 and 3 open (which are on the starboard or right side).
		This is bogus, because flooding means that seawater is entering the room, and there are no seawater pipes, or areas connected to the hull, in which sea water could enter the room.

	Crimson Tide - MOVIE REVIEW - Los Angeles Times - calendarlive.com
		Don't plan on getting much sleep after seeing "Crimson Tide." It's not just that the tension, tangible enough to be eaten off a plate, is capable of squeezing out your every last breath.
		Wedding a shrewd concept and a lean script to on-the-nose acting and direction, "Crimson Tide" is one of the rare times when a whole mess of commercial elements are thrown together and everything works out for the best.
		Aside from convincingly delineating character, "Crimson Tide's" script gradually builds the tension from small incidents like a fire in the galley and the unwelcome attentions of a Russian Akula class submarine until the ultimate in crises inevitably arrives.

		For its first half-hour, the movie, which was directed by Tony Scott (Crimson Tide, Man on Fire, Domino) and is the first Hollywood picture to shoot in the city post-Katrina, grips you as a stylish and suspenseful crime drama.
		Viewers with the discipline to stick with the movie will have their efforts rewarded, but despite Aronofsky's obviously earnest and heartfelt efforts, this would-be trippy fantasy about love and death is kookier and sillier than anything else.
		Cheerful, goofy, occasionally scatological and energetically profane, the film follows the journey of idealistic JD (Jack Black), whose only goal in life is to rock (and, apparently, write a bunch of songs that use a crude reference to a familiar body part that rhymes with ``rock'').

	Tension Hot in `Crimson' / Submarine thriller a first-rate story
		The summer movie season gets off to an early start with ``Crimson Tide,'' the year's first blockbuster.
		The confrontation here is classic: the decisive veteran with years of hands-on experience vs. the young upstart with plenty of impressive academic credentials but no experience in the field.
		``Crimson Tide'' is the story of a mutiny -- several mutinies, in fact -- taking place inside the submarine over the course of a single hour, while outside the world careens toward nuclear war.

		`Crimson Tide'' has everything you could want from an action thriller and a few other things you usually can't hope to expect: an excellent script, first-rate performances and a story that has more to do with individuals than explosions.
		Now on home video, ``Crimson Tide'' is the story of a mutiny -- several mutinies, in fact -- taking place inside a submarine while outside, the world careens toward nuclear war.
		When the captain announces that the Russian rebels have cracked the nuclear code and are arming their missiles, the fear and dread diffuses over the viewers.

	Kinnopio's Movie Reviews - Crimson Tide
		Although Tony Scott's Crimson Tide is first and foremost an action-suspense thriller, it raises certain key issues about the US Navy's policy of independently-launched nuclear weapons and the men in charge of such destructive power.
		Offering vivid and inspiring performances by leads Denzel Washington and Gene Hackman, Crimson Tide is certainly one of the year's top films in both the style and the substance categories; this is one explosive movie.
		This intense nature comes from the fact that principal photography for Crimson Tide yielded over forty hours of useable footage, all of which was masterfully condensed into a 116-minute sardine can of a running time by editor Chris Lebenzon.
