K-19: The Widowmaker 2002

Based on actual events, K-19: The Widowmaker is an intense and suspenseful military thriller. The story follows the maiden voyage of a Soviet nuclear submarine, but during its sea trials it suffers a critical reactor failure. Starring Harrison Ford, Liam Neeson, and Peter Sarsgaard, the film has a solid cast. And, director Kathryn Bigelow does an impressive job at building tension and giving a visceral feel to submarine life. Additionally, composer Klaus Badelt delivers an extraordinary score that brilliantly compliments the film. Remarkably well-crafted, K-19: The Widowmaker is a compelling drama about a fascinating piece of history.
