Alien at the Movies

It's "Three Kings" meets "In Search of the Titanic" meets "Run Silent, Run Deep" when an out of work marine salvage submarine captain (Jude Law) puts together a motley crew, half British & half Russian, on a secret mission to find a rumored sunken German U-boat filled with gold bullion. If you ever seen any submarine movie, you know things are going to go terribly wrong in classic underwater fashion. The mood is claustrophobic, slow-paced, and intense as tempers flare, mistrust broods, and greed swells. Will anyone survive or are they all doomed to a watery grave.

Alien gives it 2 ½ "crush depth" stars out of 4.
