CRIMSON TIDE(1995)

Director: Tony Scott 

Starring: Gene Hackman, Denzel Washington and Matt Craven

 

Plot Summary: On a US nuclear missile sub, a young first officer stages a mutiny to prevent his trigger happy captain from launching his missiles before confirming his orders to do so.

 
This is the rare kind of war movie that not only thrills people while they're watching it, but invites them to leave the theater actually discussing the issues. Crimson Tide has everything you could want from an action thriller and a few other things you usually can't hope to expect.
