When Russian rebels gain control of nuclear weapons in the USSR, the United States retaliates by deploying the USS Alabama, a nuclear submarine commanded by Captain Frank Ramsey (Gene Hackman). But tensions soon begin to mount between the gung-ho Captain and his more cautious Lt. Commander (Denzel Washington). Produced by Don Simpson and Jerry Bruckheimer (TOPGUN, THE ROCK) and in the tradition of his own gritty thrillers MAN ON FIRE and REVENGE, director Tony Scott keeps the tension running high in this fast-paced military thriller. Hackman scores as the tradition-bound Ramsey, and Washington is superb as the thoughtful young officer who feels compelled to take a stand against his superior. CRIMSON TIDE remains an intense and intelligent thriller.
