Movie Reviews

User Review - 10/10 by Tom HVery good movie, I highly recommend it if you can find it
User Review - 10/10 by Paul DI usually like Charlton Heston's films, but this is my 1st favorite summer movie. Especially my favorite part of the film is when a nuclear sub, USS Neptune is about to collide in the abyss & everyone including Captain Paul Blanchard survived on the DSRB-1, except Captain Gates in a minisub, the 'Snark'. Anyways, it's a great summer movie I've usually watched every night. It reminds me of a movie, Airport '77.
User Review - 10/10 by Jose PGray Lady Down is a fantastic film. It is about a navy captain who uses his experimental Snark to reach a nuclear submarine stuck on an ocean ledge. Charlton Heston and David Carradine give excellent performances. The screenplay is well written. David Greene did a good job directing this movie. I enjoyed watching this motion picture because of the drama. Gray Lady Down is a must see.
User Review - 10/10 by Jason JGripping, A new test nuclear submarine developes problems and plunges right to the bottom. A rescue operation is mounted (againtst the clock as usual) to recover the crew alive and well
User Review - 8/10 by Brad GA great story of survival in an iron coffin.
User Review - 8/10 by Adrian Dwatched this on the late show the other night. Awesome flick - intense and a great story that would rival any action suspense today.
User Review - 6/10 by Paul GDirector: David Greene Starring: Charlton Heston, Johnny Cox, Dorian Harewood, Stacy Keach and Christopher Reeve Color, 1978 Gray Lady Down is yet another disaster movie from the seventies, a decade which spawned a dozen such movies. Hollywood executives green-lighted these movies as if their lives depended on them, as they proved to be the closest thing to the modern moneymaking blockbuster in the pre Jaws and Star Wars era. When Gray Lady Down debuted in 1978 the genre had lost much of its original appeal, and it were to be the last disaster epic, in which Charlton Heston appeared, whose former biblical superhero type persona tried during the seventies to reinvent himself by doing almost every major sci-fi and disaster film to come out of Hollywood. As disaster movies go, this one is no different other than it takes place onboard a submarine. The Captain played by Charlton Heston and his crew have been on a lengthy and tiresome patrol, and if God is willing and good seamanship is practised, they will return to port in a few days. But this is not to be, since for some unfortunate reason, a Norwegian freighter runs them down as they cruise on the surface. Most of the crew meets a quick but brutal demise as the submarine descends on its watery grave hundreds of meters below the surface. All this mayhem happens within the first ten minutes, which means that the viewers the next hour and half must endure slow drownings and other horrors as the initial survivers are picked off one by one by the sea and the ever more dangerous wreck. If you are into disaster movies you might like it, but then again you might not. The similarities between this effort and earlier ones are abundant. As already mentioned, the submarine setting is what makes it stand out. But perhaps even more importantly, there are no evil people aboard the submarine. After all, it?s the US Navy for Christ sake! One of the payoffs of seeing a film like Towering Inferno and the Poseidon Adventure was the prospect of seeing every evil minded or egoistical character in the cast succumbing to the elements. This is clearly not the case with Gray Lady Down, where every crewmember comes out with their honour intact, either they survive or not. And the perpetrators of the disaster, the Norwegian freighter and its crew, get home free without so much as a torpedo up their propeller shaft. What kind of entertainment is that? The last time I saw it I felt like a voyeur seeing people slowly die. That?s pretty sick stuff! For all its apparent flaws, I must admit that I have seen it at least 5 or 6 times. Why, you?d say? I?m a submarine movie fanatic and collect every film I can get my hands on, be it superbad, bad, mediocre, good, very good or excellent. I don?t fucking care! As long as a sub pop up, I?m there. Quality wise this is mediocre at best, but if you are into submarine movies or share mayhem, you might be inclined to overlook its obvious shortcomings.
User Review - 6/10 by Private UNuclear sub collides with a ship, sinks to the bottom of the sea. Not a bad film, usually plays on some obscure movie channel late at night. It captures the tensions of the crew as they are stranded below well, although it starts to become amusing (unintentionally) when some of the crew members start to wig out. Great ending though.
User Review - 6/10 by Bruce LDSRV rules! And David Carradine is a self-sacrificing hero, again!
User Review - 6/10 by Joe BIt seems a Japanese TV channel, available here in Shanghai is showing a season of films celebrating Charlton Hestons fantastic career in the movies. Unfortunately, the movie 'Counterpoint' was not listed on FLIXSTER (very poor show), and so I will write about both 'Counterpoint' and 'Gray Lady Down' here. Counterpoint tells the story of a hardnosed orchestra conductor, who is captured by the Germans, and told his ochestra will be kept alive as long as they are ready to perform a concert for their captors. Heston disagrees on principle, but it forced to rethink after he is told the deal is only valid if HE conducts. The movie is a fine example of how two characters can face each other respectfully, and yet be so at odds with each others views. We are desperately lacking films like this these days, and even more so, desperately missing someone with the charisma of Heston. 4 STARS Gray Lady Down, on the other hand, seems all too familiar. With countless 'stuck under the sea' situation movies to choose from, it is only Heston which makes this film remotely interesting. The 70s were a great time for disaster films, and Heston was in most of them.... but here it seems like just a rehash. But one I am grateful for having seen, all the same. TWO STARS
