Hunter Killer
A serious official mission for US submarine captain Joe Glass. When Glass hunted an American victim in the Arctic, he was told that there was a secret Russian coup on his way, a conspiracy that threatened to dismantle the world order. Glass should assemble a group of naval forces to infiltrate enemy waters, return the captured Russian president and prevent World War III.

This movie is a slog.

A submarine movie for dads... Just simple-headed enough to hit the spot, not quite so ludicrous that it pulls me out of it.

All the actors are sunk by playing caricatures prone to spitting out leaden, often unintentionally humorous dialogue.

Submerges itself in familiarity and drowns in clichés.

While 'Hunter Killer" bounces between serious and silly, it never quite finds a suitable place to land.

Splitting the difference between scenes of Navy SEAL rescue attempts, underwater evasive maneuvers and your own countdown clock toward an incipient nap, Hunter Killer feels both generic and underheated.

The Tom Clancy-Lite plot is disposable and dated... and the action, when it does arrive, is quiet enough to send the most insomnia-plagued of audiences to sleep.

Butler's performance-or lack thereof-keeps Hunter Killer from breaking any ground in the field of war movies.

[You'll] find more enjoyment watching a plastic yellow submarine sink to the bottom of a bathtub than watching this film.

Such a bland action-thriller that it belongs in the bargain bin at Family Dollar. Not even Walmart. Family Dollar.

It's nice to spend a couple of hours in a fictional world where we don't have to worry about the American president doing something ruinously idiotic and evil. It plays like a nostalgic fairy tale.

The title fits what Butler serves up on a silver platter... Hunter Killer still isn't a great movie, but it puts the world order back in place for the better part of two hours as it re-establishes the Russian threat to the American Way.
