I also loved how much of this movie (a good 40%, I think) was just Alec Baldwin slowly and triumphantly realizing something (“Son of a BITCH!” “Wait a minute – what date is it today?” “HE’S GOING TO TURN TO STARBOARD”) while doing really excellent prop work, always flinging down coffee cups or slamming the sides of helicopters in joyful realization And he doesn’t! He gets to keep ALL HIS ILLUSIONS, which most movies (AND ALSO LIFE) do not allow weird adoring people to do. MALLORY: Oh my God, I spent the WHOLE MOVIE worrying that Tim Curry was going to find out that Sean Connery was betraying the Motherland, because I didn’t think I could handle the look of confusion and loss on his weird, adoring face. I get choked up when he tells Connery that he’ll get the Order of Lenin for his sacrifice, even though I know Connery is defecting and just pretending to scuttle the sub I mean, this is a movie where Tim Curry plays the world’s most earnest Soviet. I honestly believe it to be the greatest action thriller of the 1990s, which was already the best decade for action thrillers NICOLE: I didn’t want to put a lot of pressure on you, but if you hadn’t loved it, it would have impacted our friendship. MALLORY: so I saw for the first time in my life the greatest movie ever made by human hands this week at your houseĪ movie that i thought was about what a good idea it is to blow up nuclear submarinesīut was in fact about what a good idea it is to NOT blow up nuclear submarines
