Suite101.com - 10/10 by Rob HumanickThere's so much going on in the shoestring gem that is The Atomic Submarine that it seems only incidentally science fiction.
Ozus' World Movie Reviews - 9/10 by Dennis SchwartzDrags until coming alive in the last act.
User Review - 8/10 by Spencer SThis film has vivid, obtuse visuals, interesting use of effects, and a great final battle between the sentient alien overlord and the submarine crew. Though a lot of this film drags, it more than makes up for it with great visuals and ideas.
User Review - 6/10 by Eric CI got this one bundled in the Monsters and Madman set of Criterion by recommendation I watched this one first. It sparked my imagination, just like Saturday cereals are meant to do. It has a short running time, which makes it a prime candidate for rainy days, or a change in pace. Political undertones and allusions to Greek mythology are present as well as talks of atomic technology keep the movie a worthwhile viewing. Can't wait to see the bundled 'First man into space'!
User Review - 6/10 by Paul DSubmarine sci-fi flick that surpasses its b-movie nature. In many ways, the plot of the film is not too dissimilar to many contemporary films of the genre, and it is aided in sophistication by allusions to Greek mythology and a political bent rare for films of its time. Sure, there are hokey special effects and the voice-over is pathetically obvious (or worse: hyperbolic), but as far as b-grade sci-fi goes, this is a cut above average, even if it ends on 'golly gosh, you've convinced me of the importance of the military' patriotism.
User Review - 6/10 by Shawn RCheesy, and a bit slow, 50's sci-fi film. Worth a look just for the images of the alien mastermind.
User Review - 6/10 by Al MFun little late 50s sci-fi B-Movie that asks one fundamental question: couldn't flying saucers travel predominately under water? Huh? have you ever thought of that? That they disappear so quickly because they dive into the ocean? The Atomic Submarine is ultimately laughable especially in its naive, propagandistic position on militarism and atomic weaponry. Still, though, a really fun film for fans of cheesy sci-fi cinema.
User Review - 6/10 by Kevin NCheesy 50s sci-fi B-movie is pretty entertaining - complete with laughable special effects and some fun voice-over narration. It has its slow, talky moments, but the story is original, and it scores with a whacked-out ending. Great unusual score by Alexander Laszlo.
User Review - 6/10 by Ethan YA surprisingly interesting 50's B-film with some nice set pieces reminiscent of the expressionist films of the 20's. Unlike a lot of films of a similar ilk, Atomic Submarine fills little time with pointless techno-babble and cuts straight to what the audience wants to see: Underwater UFOs run by cyclops tentacle creatures melting people's faces off.
User Review - 6/10 by Martin TA fun, if completely forgettable 50's sci-fi movie. The writing is a little above average though, that was fun to see.
